A large series of articles about Team 8 just came out. Unfortunately, they're all from fomos, so I won't be able to translate them completely, but I tried my best to summarize them for you guys. Also, check the links for pictures ^^

Who lives in the same room?
Details the living arrangements of the Team 8 dorms. Jaedong, Sea, and Jaehoon are in one room, while Baby, Killer, and Tyson are in the other. They decided to arrange it according to age (the older guys together, younger guys together), experience (debut times), and race (one player of each race in a room).

Team 8's Sea, it turns out, is a Morning Person
As we know, Sea has a different sleeping pattern from the rest of the players. He believes in a sleep early, wake up early kind of lifestyle. Because of this, even though he shares a room with Jaedong and Jaehoon, he doesn't get to talk to them much (before bed, anwyay), though he'd like to. By the time Jaedong turns in for the night, Sea has already fallen asleep.

The Team Atmosphere is the Best! Baby says "Practice is fun!"
Baby is really happy in the new team. He's gotten close to everyone very fast (probably abusing his status as the cute maknae, the youngest member, hehe). Baby practiced hard during the offseason so he wouldn't lose his skills, but he had a hard time and felt depressed. Joining the new team felt like he'd resumed a regular lifestyle again. Although he was WeMade's ace, on this new team, he'll have to work hard to move up. He thinks that Tyson is the team's moodmaker, because he's talkative, funny, and makes it so practice is never hard.

Killer: "When I'm doing well, I want to do even better!"
Mini-Dong has been attracting interest for his rapidly improving performance (Jin Air OSL & the last inhouse tourney thing), and he feels he should capitalize on his strong momentum and be greedy for good results. He became friends with the rest of the team quickly, and Tyson calls him by his initials J.O. (like the way Jaedong is J.D.) . He thinks that Baby and Tyson are totally different from how they are in the arena, and was completely surprised that Tyson was even more talkative than himself, and that Baby was just so cute (lol what did I say ^^)

Jaedong: "Flash, just wait. Kespa #1 Ranking is MY spot!" (Jaedong on FIYAHHH!)
Jaedong is revving up to his competitive mode. Preparing deathstare!!! This is the first time that there's been such a long gap, and it hasn't been easy for Jaedong. He doesn't want his career to burn out yet, so tells himself that he must do well. But he's not worried or stressed; he feels quite at ease. He wants to focus on showing everyone good games, and then the good results will naturally follow. Everyday the team practices from 10AM until 2 or 3AM non-stop, aside from meals, and he has no time to be social or do anything else. Last season, his results declined, but now he wants to be the best again. His Kespa ranking for November was #6, while Flash had been #1 for 6 months in a row. Jaedong's goal is now to recapture the glory of that #1 position. It won't be easy, but he's confident.

Thank you for translation, I love the korean articles so much ( and I wish I could read them myself, too bad).
Bisu[about JD]=I was scared (laughs). The force emanating from his facial expression was so manly that I was even a little jealous.

Good to hear JD being eager to get back into the top dog spot, but he has been saying the same thing after every beatdown by Flash in 2010 (''I'll show better games next time'' and stuff like that). =/ And after hearing that Killer won the in-house tourney, I'm slightly suspicous about JD's abilities atm. I hope this is just me being a negative nancy though, would be awesome to see JD kick some serious ass again. ^__^

I think that a new team environment could really do him some good. It's not the same atmosphere that Oz was, where Jaedong had to break his back to carry his team by himself, and also focus on taking down Flash in individual leagues. Now some of that pressure is relieved. Who knows, this might just be what Jaedong needed to get himself back to Tyrant mode

FlaSh has recovered, Jaedong's drive is back.

Can't wait for the new season.

Here's to LEE SSANG ROK!
