Thoughts on your leadoff 3kill?
I caught a cold, and I hurt all over. Getting a 3kill brightened up my day. Tomorrow is my dear older brother's birthday, so today's 3kill is a birthday present for him.
It must have been hard to play, being sick.
I played very well, but I found it tough to focus completely, which made me worried. Luckily, though, it was just a physical illness, so the games still went well.
Why were you sent out first?
On one hand, there's the maps, and on another hand I have a lot of confidence against FOX.
STX still doesn't have any AK.
I want to prove that our team is capable of all-killing, but regrettably I failed to accomplish it myself. But we won as a team anyway, which is good.
FOX came back, turning a 3:0 score into 3:3.
I was very anxious. Not long ago, this happened to Calm too, so I understood what he felt. Trap's game was also very regrettable. He could have won, but instead Baby turned the tables, which was heart-wrenching to watch. But Shuttle cleaned up in the end, which let me breathe easy.
You were nearly reverse AK'd.
We've recently been mired in a losing streak, so another loss would have been a huge blow to our morale. If we had been reverse all-killed, I would have felt horrible for failing to complete my own all-kill. So I was very uneasy. When Baby razed Shuttle's natural, I felt my heart plummet, but luckily Baby was overaggressive and Shuttle managed to fend off the push. I'm very grateful to Baby for that moment (haha).
Your team still has hopes to enter the SWL post-season.
I really want to enter the post-season, but if we can't, it wouldn't be devastating. GwangAhnRi is the ultimate goal, and for that we must give it our all.
Anything else?
Not long ago, Calm had a dinner with his family; I somewhat envy him. Tomorrow is my brother's birthday, but since I have a match, I can't see him, which is sad. I hope that if my brother needs anything for his birthday, he'll contact me. I usually don't express it, but I make it a point to keep close relations with my family.

Thoughts on ending the match?
I was on a PvT losing streak, and I wasn't particularly outstanding within the team either. It's been tough. But the head coach still gave me an opportunity – in a vT matchup no less – and let me end that losing streak. I'm really thankful of the coaches.
Recently, your PvT has been uninspired.
In my last few PvTs, I tended to collapse in the early game, so I'm training very hard. Protoss players must play good vT, but my skill level is dropping, so I need to practice my vT.
You haven't been the ace player for a while.
It's good to be able to do my part. I remembered a game I played against Canata back when I was a rookie. I've lost a lot of PvT, so it's good to finally win one. Baby played very actively in the opening, so it looked like he was going to win. But luck was on my side, and I turned it around for a win.
Baby's early game was stellar.
Because I had shuttles, I never thought I would lose for sure. Speed shuttles were an important part of the victory. Right now, our team just needed one victory, and to help bring that around is a fantastic feeling.
What's the reason behind your recent weak play?
I've been too nervous; the pressure is huge. I've been exerting an enormous effort to stay calm and to avoid shuddering, but it's not enough.
What did you think when you saw Trap's game right before yours?
Trap had a huge advantage. His block of Baby's vulture harass was outstanding, and it showed me I have things to learn from him. But in the late game, he may have gotten a bit anxious, and he just couldn't grab the win. Even though he lost, if he keeps playing like this, he'll do well for sure.
Anything else?
OSL prelims will start soon [T/N !!!!!] and I really want to advance. No matter what difficulties I meet, I'll fight my way into the OSL. I hope to get to the next stage and perform well.
