I translated this with ChatGPT so... it may have errors but this was what I got after the game. What a dominating performance by Flash! Fighting! The finals will be so good... anyway. Interview translation below...
Interviewer: Let’s meet the player Flash, who has made it to the finals with a brilliant performance on stage. Congratulations!
Flash: Thank you.
Interviewer: You showed a flawless 4-0 performance and advanced to the finals. It feels like calling you the best Terran of this season is not enough; you showed the strongest Terran form. How do you feel right now?
Flash: I thought it wouldn’t be easy, but I won more easily than expected, so I’m really happy. I feel like I’m regaining my old form step by step. Compared to my past form, I think I’m over 90% back. In the finals, I’ll be at 100% and beat Soma
Interviewer: When it was decided you’d face Light, you said he’s like a machine, so you’d have to push with tempo. And just as you said, in all four sets, you dominated with speed. Did things go exactly as you prepared?
Flash: Yes, everything fell into place. I focused on optimization, and I believed I was better at optimizing. I thought if I pushed early, I’d create a gap. I prepared to be aggressive early, and if it didn’t work, I’d defend. But today, my hands were in great shape, so I didn’t feel like I’d lose.
Interviewer: From the first set, your aggressive mindset was clear. Even when his siege tanks were in place, you went in. Did you decide you could break through, or was it a let’s try it mentality?
Flash: The situation was good, so even if blocked, I could handle it. I went in confident I could break through, and it worked out.
Interviewer: Now I wonder how Soma feels facing you at 100% in the finals. How do you feel facing him in the finals?
Flash: In this season, I faced tough opponents: Bisu, Jaedong, Snow, Light. If I beat Soma, it’s a perfect story - coming back after 6 years. I’m happy about how it turned out. It’s not easy, I still question whether I’m really back or not.. After 6 years, I’m here to prove myself and win.
Interviewer: For fans, the excitement of a 5th championship is high. Since you said you’re nearly at peak form, we’re all excited. Any words for fans and colleagues?
Flash: Thanks to my friends who came to support me. Bo-sung (Sea?) always supports my games, so thanks to him. Thanks to Yeong-jin (Rush?), Gyu-hyung (Barracks?), and Mong for practice. Thanks to Cheol-gu (Terror) at home. I’ll win the finals and shout out again. To fans: it wasn’t easy, but I made it to the finals. I wanted to prove myself. Thanks to your support, I’ll try my best. The reigning champion Soma—I’ll reclaim the crown that was mine.
