I tried my best to translate. It’s a pretty rough translation though.

+ Show Spoiler [Group A Winners Match Interview] +

[image loading]
Interviewer: Hi Larva! You made it to ro8. How do you feel?
Larva: At first I was kind of disappointed my first match was a ZvZ but I feel great having made it into ro8!

Interviewer: You came dressed very formally. It looks good on you!
Larva: TEEEEEHEEEEE

Interviewer: There was a look of disappointment on your face because of the regame. What are your thoughts on that?
Larva: When the decision for the re-game was issued… I was about to just get up and go home. Then, I saw Sonic’s face and decided I would continue playing. I ended up advancing!

Interviewer: And as a result you ended up winning. On the game where you went for a zergling rush and failed what was going through your mind?
Larva: Well, I was actually in the mindset to just give up a game and set the score even to 1-1.

Interviewer: Well you’re in the ro8. Are there any players you wish to avoid or those who you’d definitely like to play against?
Larva: Well I definitely want to avoid Hiya and I would actually like a game with Mong.

Interviewer: Hahaha Mong is actually in the audience right now. He probably heard you. So, you’re in the ro8 now, how far do you want to get?
Larva: First off I’d like to at least get to 3rd place for the prize money so that I can save some and invest some (back into the league?).

Interviewer: This is your first time visiting our SinbalFarm (신발팜) office, what are your thoughts on how we’ve set up?
Larva: I came here at 4pm when you guys were still getting ready. I think you guys have really worked hard and put a lot of effort into setting up so I can’t say anything bad. I’d like to really thank the staff members. Thank You!

Interviewer: Thank you for this brief moment for our interview. I look forward to seeing you in the ro8!

Interviewer: Congratulations on making it to ro8!
Sonic: Put the mic volume up slightly please.
Pusan: I tried my hardest and advanced so I’m very glad. I’ll give it my all in the ro8 too.

Interviewer: You’ve made it into the ro8 by winning the final match. You must be very tired.
Pusan: I want to go home soon and sleep.

Interviewer: Still you won so you must feel good! A lot of different Afreeca Starcraft BJ’s are watching in the audience, who would you like to face in the ro8?
Pusan: My best matchup is against Terran so I would definitely like to meet a Terran player in the ro8. In the ro8, the games are going to be 1v1 so I feel more confident in winning hahahahaha.

Interviewer: (Interviewer stutters a bit and laughs) Sorry, I’m a bit nervous right now (probably because of Pusan incredible aura of MANLINESS), this is the first time having an offline starleague here at the SinbalFarm office. What did you think of it?
Pusan: Well… It was refreshing(?) you know as a BJ, but I felt a bit lacking in stamina since I’m quite old. The other BJ’s are in their late teens/early 20s but I’m almost 30 haha.

Interviewer: You look incredibly young for your age! You’re very good looking.
Pusan: Thank You~

Interviewer: We hope to see a lot more exciting games from you in the ro8. Thank you for coming! Congratulation!

good interviews, lookin good with the pictures

BTW guys I noticed that Youtube limits my VOD quality to 360p, even though the source is at least 720p. Any workarounds for that? I would be able to have the VODs in at least 480p ...

Thanks for the youtube VODs, I'll have to watch them when I have a bit more free time.
The write-up is amazing, I haven't been following the SSL too closely but I've enjoyed what I've seen, the write-ups make it so easy to catch up on everything.

I think it depends on the resolution of your uploaded videos. What is resolution of your source video?

That's the problem. The source video needs to be at least 480 pixels in height for youtube to show an option to choose 480p. It's same with 720p. I don't know how much it increases quality though. You can artificially increase the resolution of your videos to 720 or even 1080 and youtube will show those options, but it won't be any better quality.

hmmm what a pain =_= such a shame that Youtube does that lol .. maybe I'll see if artificially increasing to 480 is feasible ;p

[image loading]
Interviewer: Hello Perfectman. You’ve made it into the ro8. How do you feel?
Perfectman: It was a long ways to get here (to Seoul) but luckily I won so I feel great.

Interviewer: From what I saw, you seemed very calm and confident in your play. Were there any parts in the game where you felt in danger of losing? Any parts where you were sure of victory?
Perfectman: I thought the scout had missed the (Citadel of) Adun, but the SCV had scouted it. Luckily, I was able to gain the advantage and won.

Interviewer: So you’ve made it into the ro8, Are there any players you wish to avoid or those who you would like to play against?
Perfectman: I think everyone besides Killer I would like a game with.

Interviewer: What are your goals for this Starleague?
Perfectman: Of course I want to get 1st place. I want to win the prize money.

Interviewer: Seeing you in person, I think you’re really good looking (She’s said this in all the interview except Larva’s), real cute and well mannered! This is your first time here at the SinbalFarm office. What do you about what we’ve done so far?
Perfectman: I’ve seen Sonic’s stream quite a bit on Afreeca and I really didn’t think much of Sonic. I didn’t know he was such a successful CEO. He turned out to be a lot more awesome than I had originally thought.

Interviewer: Thank you so much for this interview. Congratulations on making it to the ro8!


+ Show Spoiler [Group B Final Match Interview] +

Interviewer: Congratulations on making it to ro8, Mong! You’ve advanced but the viewers and I can’t help but notice your level of play today wasn’t as good as it usually is. Is your condition not so good today?
Mong: My condition is fine. It’s just that one and a half years has passed since I’ve had a public game with a viewing audience. I was a bit nervous and my play felt a bit shaky.

Interviewer: You were here at our SInbalFarm office very late last night and you seemed very tired. We were worried but you still advanced to the ro8!
Mong: Lately, every tournament I’ve been struggling to go up the bracket but still today I advanced so I think I can go home happy.

Interviewer: Seeing you in person (as opposed to online on his afreeca stream), you are much better looking in person! Truthfully, between you and Sonic who do you think is better looking?
Mong: (Mong got a little bit pissed off here ) Sonic told me it’s not the cam that makes people think he’s better looking (than I am) so I really looked forward to coming to offline so people could compare. Truthfully, Sonic is VERY UGLY. I’m not even kidding right now, yesterday (at the offline) I asked Sonic if we could compare our faces side by side so the viewers could decide who is better looking. Sonic ended his stream very quickly. I wish you guys would stop comparing our faces…
[image loading]

Interviewer: Haha I understand. Mong you didn’t do any kind of ceremony after your victory. Could you maybe show us that famous Tektonik dance of yours?
Mong:


Interviewer: Congratulations on making it to ro8! We look forward to seeing many more awesome games from you!
