[Translation] Interview with Jaedong and Flash - Page 7

Q: The map pool is said to be very difficult for Zerg players.
Jaedong: ... Of course, the preparation is going to be stressful, but there’s only one game to prepare for. It’s good to take control by telling yourself that there’s only a single game to play for each map.

very good read.

one note to the translators: koerans know what leessangrok and taebaekrok means, but the foreigners don't. of course the best translation might be to leave it as that rather than trying to find english substitutes, but we have NO IDEA about what it means.

it would have been a good idea to put in parentheses some kind of english translation of that, no matter how awkward (so that we have some idea of the meaning) and then continue to use leesangrok and taebaekrok throughout the article.

the part when flash says "anything -rok" is good and "leessangrok" sounds the coolest, is a good portion to exemplify this need.

what is "rok"? if we know the meanings of leessang and taebaek, then we can at least imagine why he thinks leessang sounds the best.

i'm korean-american, and pretty fluent at korean myself, but not when it comes to vocabulary like this. i can only imagine the blanks in the foreigners' heads when the two terms are repeatedly thrown around with any etymology or rough translation of the meanings.
