Who is your rival?

I don't think I'm good enough to have a rival. My goal was always go from (Z)ZerO to (Z)hero. However if I wanted to choose I would say Jaedong. I honestly feel like I lack so much compared to Jaedong but many people compare me with him so it's an honor for me. If I can win this year's league I think I will be able to get closer to Jaedong. However my ultimate and final rival would be myself. I want to get the the highest point and be able to keep that spot.

Thanks for the interview Hoon!


hes humble cus it's much better for his condition

unless you really haven't been around to know, or you just dunno, either way the short memory of people these days is insane to me - flash was very arrogant for quite a while after his osl win. Then he got eliminated, and eliminated, and eliminated from leagues. That made a huge difference and now he knows wassup and carries it differently.

I have to agree with the other guy though, that its an act. I mean he may have realized he cant be overconfident and take anyone lightly, fair. But humble? I don't see it possible for anyone in a hyper competitive SPORT to ever be humble. Competition is all about ego afterall. He may be able to control that arrogance way better than before, and think and say all the right things, but underneath the surface hes as arrogant as Jaedong, Bisu, and all the others.

I think it's him saying that the monster schedules that he, Jaedong and occasionally a few others get when they get deep into leagues takes a real physical toll.

could be one proleague match and the ace match, or it could mean a proleague match and the individual league games.

Thanks for the interview. Flash is such a great kid.



Who is your rival?

I don't think I'm good enough to have a rival. My goal was always go from Zero to Hero. However if I wanted to choose I would say Jaedong. I honestly feel like I lack so much compared to Jaedong but many people compare me with him so it's an honor for me. If I can win this year's league I think I will be able to get closer to Jaedong. However my ultimate and final rival would be myself. I want to get the the highest point and be able to keep that spot.

This is so appropriate seeing as they play tonight.



What is a goal you want to achieve in the new year?

▲ I am very greedy person. I really want to win every single league and be able to earn the "Best Player" award. I want to be acknowledged as the best in 2010

People are already saying Flash is the best. Tonight will tell whether the flash fandom bus hits a speedbump or if it gets rocketed to the moon.
