(P)Stork: "Fuck yeah! Gonna win both Starleagues, bitches!"
(T/N: might have exaggerated Stork's actual words)

[image loading]


--You won 3-0 to get to the finals
▲After the AK in the WL, I actually found myself with more pressure than usual. I was really flustered after losing last night. While sleeping I actually had tears. Normally you don't get tears 4 months after laser eye surgery, yet last night a lot came out. As a result, it affected my practice today. So I was really relieved to sweep tonight.


--Did the loss to (Z)ZerO really hit you hard?

▲I actually practiced quite well, and my team supported me greatly. So I actually practiced more for it than my PL games. After last night's loss, I believe I'll 3-0 him the next time we meet. Last night's loss definitely affected me negatively tonight.


--So how did the loss actually affected you?
▲At first it wasn't too bad, but it was compounded by an assortment of other problems, some non-SC related. As a result I was pissed off the whole time I was practicing for today. My concentration was bad, and didn't really get good practice results. I'm really lucky to have won.

--Your play was nearly flawless

▲The first map is Aztec, not one I care for personally. Supposedly it's really favorable for Protoss. But I think it's more of a zerg map. So I did not like the fact that it could be played twice to day. The first win therefore really helped a lot.

--You've lost on the 2nd map(Gladiator) before. Did you feel extra pressure?
▲I did lose to (Z)Shine[kaL], but at that time I didn't prepare properly. Felt it was a bad protoss map. But after preparing for it now, I feel it's a pretty good map.

--You dominated the 3rd game.
▲I was most worried about this map(Pathfinder). It has an incredibly high rate of early game rushes. Now terrans can just wall off. But for protoss, there's a lot of luck involved in deflecting cheese. So once I was certain (Z)Modesty wasn't cheesing, I knew I could win.

--You are the first protoss to get to 4 OSL finals
▲I already forgot how many times I've been to the finals. Yeah, only (T)BoxeR, (T)NaDa, and (Z)July have done this. Protoss is a hard race to play, so I'm really glad to have made it this far. But there's still a long road ahead for me.(T/N: Stork didn't mention the recent players who have also made the list of 4+ OSL finals. Probably because he didn't bother updating his internal list of such players.)

--Your finals opponent is (T)Fantasy
▲Happy to play against (T)Fantasy. This time the finals map really favor me. So I have a very good chance to win.

--You are playing in both star-leagues

▲Last night's loss really hit me hard. But I'm going to do my best to play well in both star-leagues. I know yesterday, MBC announcers said I'm only concentrating on the OSL. I want to say that's not true. I'm battling for both. I want to win both.

--Rainbow will perform before the finals. Your thoughts?
▲Before I really liked Wonder Girls. I'd go see their concerts during breaks. Now I've become a Rainbow fan, so I'm definitely going to watch them perform. Very pumped that they're going to be there.

--You have the most male fans. Why?
▲I don't really know. I think my popularity rose after showing off my body. Recently though, there are some female fans who yell, "Not all your fans are male." Very happy to have so many fans.

--Final thoughts?

▲Gwangju is a sad place for me. Shortest OSL final ever. I felt I let my fans there down. But this time, I'm in much better shape. And I'm going use that defeat to drive myself even harder.
And to my teammates who helped me practice. My wallet's by my bed. There's 200K Won inside to treat you guys to a meal.

Thank you!! ^^V

STORK 3-0 WHATTA BOSS!! Yeahhhh~

:O I'm concerned for his health though...I hope the sweep today helps his feel better :3

Sort of surprising that stork may be among the very best in the history books, though! I had no idea as to how successful he really has been. Song Byung Goo hwaiting~

Stork: Even through tears, he still dominates. What a beast. And about him showing off his body- he said in another interview when looking back when he had stripped he remarked, "Yeah, I remember that, and looking back on it... What the heck was I thinking back then?! *Laughs*" Looks like that stripping paid off a lot more than you thought.

Thanks for the translation! Man, it's going to be so awesome to see the Incruit OSL redux: Revenge match edition! And did it really say 20K won? That's only $20, did they not say 200K won?

Another baller interview by Stork. From the first answer alone, you can tell it's golden. Which other progamer opens an interview by saying that he cried alot the night before?

Thanks for translating, baubo!

Edit: FUCK YEAH STORK HWAITING!!

So happy to see Stork dominating.

Hopefully he can finish this OSL run out by defeating Fantasy again in the Finals. GO STORK!

stork played awesome and modesty is back to his actual skill level. But what's with zerg playing off 4 bases from the start right now. 3 base to 5 hat don't work anymore?

Love the translation notes.

Don't remember stork mentioning maps so much before. Always thought that was a bisu thing.

Stork hwaiting.
