Q: Thoughts on your 7th time entering the Ro16? A: The bizarre thing is, I've been put into the group A before. The celebrity [T/N ๆดๆ็ง, dunno Korean translation] is always the first to play on "Boundless Challenge" [T/N that's a literal translation too], so he's earned the nickname "Predetermined ๆ็ง." It looks like I'm probably "Predetermined Sea" then. However, it's good that since last season the format has been changed so that I don't have to play on the very first day. Even though the maps were tough, I was happy that my luck carried me to victory.
Q: You attempted bunker rush in games 1 and 3. A: I prepared it because it's really difficult to play against Zerg on the first map. After that, I started getting impressed with myself because I used my brilliant sense to manage the game well on the spot [laugh]. But either my marines are weak or Killer's Mutalisks are strong -- because he completely bulldozed me so I was angry at myself. [T/N Milkis fixed this one for me, thanks]
Q: In game 2, once you escaped a crisis, you won. A: The early game was very hectic and rushed. I didn't repair my supply well, but I managed to hold off two waves of zerglings with 5 marines and some mines. It feels like with my luck, it should have been 3:0.
Q: In game 3, your bunker was demolished by a concentrated attack, but you endured the crisis. A: When I saw that my bunker had between 30 and 40 health left, I could sense the taste of death. To be able to repair it was seriously some sort of miracle. Killer plays so aggressively that I had no choice but to abandon my prepared strategy and play moment to moment.
Q: There are many fans awaiting your appearance at the selection ceremony. A: In OSL, I don't have much to say. However, if my teammate Hyun advances too, that would be awesome. Participating in the OSL together would be excellent. With the two of us, we can direct the whole ceremony. (haha)
Q: Did you convey some of your selection talent to Hyun? [T/N am confused] A: In the MSL selection ceremony, Hyun's performance caused all my childhood friends to contact me online, so I really have nothing to convey to him. But I've still got more experience than him, so I don't need to ask for advice. I hope Han can advance with us as well.
Q: Goal for this OSL? A: Last time, I hit the OSL Ro16 but I didn't know how far I would get from there. In the Ro8, I was too nervous, so I was eliminated. At that point, I felt like I had lost everything. But Dr. [T/N ้ฉๅพท่ดค] got me back on my feet and helped me calm down. He told me, "you'll be sure to make the Ro8, so next time go for the Ro4," which gave me a lot of strength. I can make the Ro4, maybe even the finals. I must get a starleague win before heading to military service.
Q: Anything else? A: The weather is cold now. Everyone be careful not to catch a cold; wear warmer clothing, I guess.
Thanks for the translations, congratulations to Sea, there were some close calls in last nights games.

The celebrity's name is Park Myung Soo. Boundless challenge should be "Infinite Challenge".
Q: You attempted bunker rush in games 1 and 3. A: The map in game 1 was tough for TvZ, so I prepared to bunker rush. Afterwards, I would play impromptu and trust my own and entrust the management to my innate skill. I wasn't thrilled about it, though (haha). It might have been that I didn't use marines well, so that Killer could quickly use a single group of mutas to devastate my main. About this, I was extremely angry.

Referring to the Group Selection Ceremony Skills, since sea is known to be quite amazing in group ceremony
i have no idea why sea is so popular around here. he just chokes wayyyy too hard, and you know he won't get past the ro16. it's hilarious to watch him play as he gets all red and flustered very easily. (just watch the 3rd set against killer or his 3-1 loss against JD)
