Interview with Bisu and Jaedong by Fighterforum.com – “Similar Yet Different”

Original Article
http://gmnews.afreeca.com:8109/app/index.php?board=news_esports&b_no=31418&control=view

Anyone will agree that the best players as of now are SK Telecom T1’s Bisu and Hwaseung Oz’s Jaedong. Incidentally, both players finished the round 4 of the Shinhan Proleague 08-09 with a total tally of 44 wins which makes them the joint leaders of the Proleague player ranking. Their individual league triumphs also tally up to three. The question of “who is closer to bonjwahood” is always a hot issue in Starcraft communities.

Despite sharing their place at the top, the two players are famous for not being too close to each other. Although they keep mentioning that they would like to know each other better in individual league group selection stages or interviews, they have yet to get close to one another due to their timid personality. So one could say that that makes this interview all the more historic.

Awkward First Encounter

The location for the interview, Seu-Rae-Ma-Eul, is where the Hwaseung OZ’s living quarters is situated. Bisu first took his place in the café and waited for a bit, then Jaedong showed up. They exchange greetings, but then an awkward silence filled the air. When asked whether they even say hello to each other, they mentioned that naturally it is common courtesy to do so. Of course the conversation never gets deeper than that as is expected between two individuals who are not close to one another.

The reporter of the interview doesn’t expect things to ease up any time soon. He keeps pestering the two to do something about the situation. It seems that with organization of separate professional Starcraft teams, players from different teams have trouble getting to know each other better. “We usually get close by practicing games. It’s hard to do so by any other measures. It is only after getting to know one another better under certain circumstances such as this interview do we become close.”

Did they practice with each other before then? They never requested practice games personally, but a practice session between the two had been arranged by the team staff before. This happened when Bisu just transferred to SK Telecom T1, so it was over a year ago. Even the number of games they played is only a couple.

As of now, Jaedong is slightly ahead on head to head score. When we asked if things were any different during practice, “I lost all the games” Bisu remarked stiffly. Jaedong laughed awkwardly and mentioned that he thinks he may have lost some of them. It seems Bisu remembers the encounter during practice more clearly.

The most memorable match between the two is the match they had in the Proleague. Bisu won the match on Andromeda with reaver-carriers. It was a bitter defeat for Jaedong. “I thought I had the upper hand after I sniped the first shuttle but I ended up losing. Even my teammates scorned me for losing that way,” Jaedong reminisced. Bisu added “I think he was unaware of my carrier transition,” and Jaedong nodded confirmation.

Unlike the fans who desperate wants more clashes between the two, the players themselves were less keen on the issue. They were ready for any future encounters, but were not anticipating heavily. “I don’t really pay much attention to my opponents. Of course I do enjoy the attention I receive in highly anticipated show downs,” Jaedong remarked rather distantly.

Practice Junkies, As Acknowledged By All

Bisu and Jaedong are notorious for practicing more than it seems possible. When we requested the players to ask one another for anything they were curious about, Bisu was first to draw the sword by asking Jaedong how much they practiced. With Hwaseung Oz’s reputation for Spartan-style practice sessions, it seems Bisu was interested in whether the reputations were all true.

“Back in the days when I practiced a lot, that’s all I did. I got straight back to practicing after I was finished eating, and slept for about 7 hours (calculations show that Jaedong must have practiced for about 15 to 16 hours a day). That’s how things were until I won both individual leagues,” Jaedong recalled. It goes to show how Jaedong’s triumph in both individual leagues didn’t happen by some dumb luck.

Being human, they admitted that they had difficulties maintaining such a schedule. “I physically couldn’t do it anymore (laughs). I tired easily, so I practice around 11 hours a day now,” Jaedong remarked. Bisu, who entered the world of progaming half a year earlier than Jaedong, agreed on the stamina issue. “I can feel my stamina getting weaker by the day. If I feel under the weather on a certain day, I catch the cold the very next. I have to manage my health better,” Bisu pledged.

Jaedong’s question was similar to Bisu’s. He asked Bisu on how he managed to get such good results recently, although it seemed he knew the answer to it already. “Is there anything else? I practiced a lot,” Bisu answered. He added that he thinks he is behind Jaedong in terms of pure practice amounts, and that he had lady luck on his side recently. There is no doubting that the secret behind the two players’ success is their insane practice schedules to complement their ability.

Versus Zerg Specialists

Although they play different races, these two players are famous for their versus zerg match ups. Jaedong was known for his excellent zerg versus zerg since his debut, and Bisu made his mark in history by obliterating the “Plague of Protoss” – Savior - three to zero.

“The beauty of zerg versus zerg comes from the fact that the tiniest things decide the outcome of the game, and the unseen mind games between the players. It is the match up I am most confident in, and have most fun with. It’s fun because I win, and I win because it’s fun. The cycle repeats itself,” Jaedong mentioned on his match up he has been the best in the scene at for several years. Jaedong’s zerg versus zerg ability basically is impregnable, we concluded.

Jaedong actually believed that his zerg versus zerg was not that great in the beginning. We remembered that his first Proleague 5th set deciding match defeat came from a zerg. He actually lost a lot of zerg versus zerg matches during practice, but oddly enough hardly lost on television. “I gained a lot of confidence from that, and started to win a lot during practice also. After that, it’s always been like it is now,” Jaedong mentioned on his incredible mirror match up.

Recently, Bisu has been “unstoppable” in his mirror match up also. However, Bisu will always be known for his zerg killing ability. It is the match up he enjoys the most. “I also was not too confident against zerg when I was a rookie. It’s only after I learned the art of combining different units did I start to enjoy playing against zerg. Actually, I don’t mind which match up I play as long as there are no siege tanks involved (laughs),” Bisu noted.

Being so talented in a certain match up must involve some kind of a secret know-how. When we asked the players if they had any, they both shook their heads.

“I learned this from psychotherapy lessons: none of us knows our trade secrets that well, because it is ingrained within ourselves. We just do it, and it’s hard to explain in words,” Bisu mentioned, with references to SK Telecome T1 arranged psychotherapy lessons he’d been receiving.

Jaedong’s answer was simpler. “I don’t think it’s like that for me. I really don’t have any,” he remarked. Was practice the key once again?

Being Enlisted To The Army and Starcraft 2 – Issues That Need A Lot Of Thought

Every progamer in the scene has at one time or another given some thought about when to attend to their military duties to their country and whether they should switch to playing Starcraft 2 when it comes out. Bisu and Jaedong are no exception.

Bisu, in particular, seemed to given the topic a lot of thought what with his friend Ruby recently being enlisted to the army. “I was envious of Ruby performing his military duties so early. I’ve heard that it gets harder the later you enlist. I’m concerned already,” he expressed his worries. Bisu has been given a grade 2 on his physical examination, and has been deemed fit enough to perform his military duties in full terms. He actually got a warrant to join the army in November, but like everybody else, he is planning on delaying the date.

Jaedong, being born in January 1990, hasn’t even been given a physical examination. However, with his friends his age already performing their military services, he is worried about the topic also. “Almost all my friends are already in the army. I am the only one left behind, and I worry about it constantly. I haven’t planned on exactly when to join yet though,” Jaedong remarked.
Bisu, being a year older than Jaedong (not really though), had a lot more to say on the issue of Starcraft 2. “The market is too small to concentrate only on Brood War. When Starcraft 2 comes out, it will hit the entire world by storm, and Korea will be forced to join in. I think I’ll be playing it also. For e-Sports, I think Brood War is more suitable, but the world trend will be hard to buck,” Bisu mused. Jaedong, on the other hand, didn’t know to think exactly since he felt that Starcraft 2 was a completely different game from Brood War.

Rivals

These two players have yet to face one another on a major stage, but whether it’s for the race for getting most number of victories in the Proleague or getting the title of “bonjwa” first – whether they want to title or not – they’re locked in a tight competition against each other, so they can be called rivals. They even are battling for the top spot in the Kespa rankings.

“I personally feel some rivalry between us. People keep comparing the two of us and we have similar rankings,” Jaedong, the more buttoned up of the two replied shortly. Bisu, however, thought differently. “I think Stork matches the title of my rival better. For me at least, Jaedong is more of a rival with Flash,” he concluded. With the two players both performing as well as each other for the first time, it seems the title of rivals seems a little awkward to be put in use as of now.

However, it cannot be denied that Hwaseung Oz and SK Telecom T1 are rivals. Hwaseung Oz is currently at the top, with SK Telecom T1 closely behind. When asked what their goals were for the remaining part of this season, Bisu stated without any hesitation “being first placed in the Proleague”, while Jaedong added “whoever plays better will finish first” and mentioned that it will be a race to the finish. It was the first time in this interview that the rivalry between the two really fired up. When asked about the new map “Shadow Of Twilight”, they both answered “we don’t know exactly” and laughed awkwardly.

We then focused on their goals for the upcoming individual leagues. They both answered rather disappointingly that they haven’t given it a lot of thought since it hadn’t begun yet. Perhaps they were reluctant to state their desire to win since they were right in front of each other.
An hour had passed already. We decided to start wrapping up the interview what with both players having such tight schedules. Bisu seemed a little surprised that it was over already. Although it was too short a time to get to know each other fully, this interview had done its job as starting off what could be a lifelong friendship between the two; the rest is in their hands now.

Bisu concluded the interview by saying that he wishes the best of luck for Jaedong and himself. It seemed that he wanted to meet Jaedong in the most important of stages. Jaedong replied by saying they should get to know each other better by practicing more with each other. With a showdown between the two in the finals of some competition becoming more and more inevitable, we end the interview hoping these two players are closer now than before.

Wow.

Of all progamers (barring the emperor Himself), these two are generally the most emotional, arrogant, blunt, and generally likeable characters. They're practically kings in front of the media.

Apparently not so much in front of each other. I wonder if they're just waiting for the other person to make a move (as in the team discussion), or they just have quite a bit of respect for each other.

EDIT: Or none at all, there's also that

Actually, I don’t mind which match up I play as long as there are no siege tanks involved (laughs),” Bisu noted.

siege tank imba.

Jaedong, on the other hand, didn’t know to think exactly since he felt that Starcraft 2 was a completely game from Brood War.

You mean completely different game right?

Hopefully these two don't start practicing with each other all the time. Starcraft wouldn't be as interesting if these guys became so good they never lose!

(And then when they play each other the world explodes.)

I think maybe they feel that their words are being viewed under a magnifying glass and if they say something even slightly arrogant, everyone's going to hop on them for it.

And that's true for at least Bisu. Bisu shows the slightest hint of confidence and everyone jumps on him and calls him an arrogant bastard.

Man, that game on Andromeda is my favorite game where Jaedong loses. 11 hours a day, good to see they know how to manage their health. It's also nice that they know that the other is working just as hard, so they're always motivated.

Jaedong, on the other hand, didn’t know to think exactly since he felt that Starcraft 2 was a completely game from Brood War.

You mean completely different game right?


Yup. It's fixed now.

JD never played Bisu in GOM classic 2. He was knocked out by Tempest pretty early on.

Bisu won Classic 2 vs. JangBi

Thanks for the translation. This is awesome for sure!

I can sense the awkwardness between the two by just reading the interview title, haha....Bisu is lack of the character of being celebrity even if he looks like one. He's not a good talker, he rarely shows any emotion, he answers most questions in a boring manner (oh, excluding the map complaint). From what I've seen, his most emotional moment as a progamer is not getting any of his three titles, instead, it's when he was leaving MBC and literally cried like a baby.

Don't let me down again. I wish for a Bisu-JD final as always.

No, as far as i know, WCG is not considered for titles. Its not considered a Starleague (there is a thread explaining this but i dont remember where it is now).

Given that the article said they were 3 apiece I'd say it's a safe bet GOM isn't considered as such either.

actually I don't know if thats in their best interest. Even though they have taken ZvP / PvZ to the highest level, differing players have slightly different style. But it would still improve their skills nevertheless i guess

I guess entering the military right when sc2 comes out could be a good call for Bisu. Let the rest of the world plow through the first couple years of balance changes, bug fixes and strategy evolution... come back when it is more established.

Great interview, awesome read. JD wasnt lying I guess about his ZvP being as half as good in practice.

You include Bisu's win of GOM season 2, but ignore JD's win of GOM season 1.

Why?

He also forgot JD winning WCG Korea too.


No, as far as i know, WCG is not considered for titles. Its not considered a Starleague (there is a thread explaining this but i dont remember where it is now).


jaedong osl 2 titles
bisu osl:0

the rest is all just farts in a tornado
*edit* gom isnt sanctioned, hence not a starleague.


Sorry, but to me saying that MSL is not a title is lame to me. Although some ppl like to say that, MSL have the same skilled players, maps, and is bo5 when it does really matter.
Bisu 3-0 Savior on a MSL worth 3 OSLs if you ask me. JD not bonjwa, Savior was Bonjwa at that time.

I think one of the reasons they're like this, is because when Jaedong or Bisu is around anyone else, they'll be super confident since they know they're better. However when they're with each other that confidence is replaced with uncertainty.

How'd you like to get owned, have the guy who beat you dance around you while you sulk in your loss, then have his crotch thrusted in your face several times without you being able to do anything about it?

Yeah... most people wouldn't get insulted by that

Yeah man, everyone strips publicly and goes swimming after winning a match, I bet you'd do it too!

Also about Bisu and JD practice, wasn't it back when JD was unbeatable and Bisu was slumping? So even if JD beat Bisu every game, it's not really any proof that he > Bisu. Although he still is better than Bisu, just not because of that.

so thanks

Bisu>>>JD without a doubt

ppl who say hes arrogant need to see this interview, he does not think twice to say he lost to JD a lot in practice

And that doesnt mean nothing, as JD said he lost a lot in practices but won in TV games, which build up his confidence

I think they are both pretty equal. I think OSL has greater prizes, hence more effort to win but not much difference there. Luxury example is pretty bad since he had a relatively easy road to MSL title recently.

The true Irony of the Artoic picture is the "OSL curse", did anyone hear of that?
"And then Earthlings discovered tools. Suddenly agreeing with friends could be a form of suicide or worse. But agreements went on, not for the sake of common sense, or decency, or self preservation, but for friendliness."

You include Bisu's win of GOM season 2, but ignore JD's win of GOM season 1.

Why?

He also forgot JD winning WCG Korea too.


No, as far as i know, WCG is not considered for titles. Its not considered a Starleague (there is a thread explaining this but i dont remember where it is now).


jaedong osl 2 titles
bisu osl:0

the rest is all just farts in a tornado
*edit* gom isnt sanctioned, hence not a starleague.


Sorry, but to me saying that MSL is not a title is lame to me. Although some ppl like to say that, MSL have the same skilled players, maps, and is bo5 when it does really matter.
Bisu 3-0 Savior on a MSL worth 3 OSLs if you ask me. JD not bonjwa, Savior was Bonjwa at that time.

One could of course counter that with the may kespa ranking


1. (Z)(Z)Jaedong - Hwaseung Oz 2708.3 -
2. (P)(P)Bisu - SK Telecom T1 2385.8 -

(Although Ill look like a fool if the new ranking comes out tomorrow and Bisu's on top of it ^^ unlikely though)

Anyways I don't think anyone can possibly argue that an OSL title mean more than a MSL title

Also I don't see how an MSL title is worth more than an OSL just because Bisu beat someone who was a bonjwa at that time ^^ (besides the fact the he mainly won because he used a build savior was not familiar with)
Or does this mean that Chojja is a more successful player than Jaedong?

Dude...it seriously seems like (if the tone of the original article was carried over in the translation) that the author was slanting his writing heavily to imply some kind of dumb awkward discomfort between the two. The whole thing feels unnatural.

Thanks for the translation, though. It was still an interesting read.

Thank you so much for translating.

Here is some wishful thinking:
ProLeague Final: SKT1 vs Oz
Standing 3:3
Ace match Bisu vs Jaedong (a balanced map would be nice)

This would be so unbelievable epic

Hey guys, JD has been playing pure ZvZ in PL because the only 2 games he played that werent a ZvZ and on the 2 maps that aren't heavily Z favored, he lost.

Man, JD is so much better than Bisu.

OSL means so much more than MSL, especially when you're seeded at the top and have to play fewer games when everyone has to fight from the bottom to win an MSL.

Should put a monster sarcasm spoiler at the top.

I agree with you in almost everything you said, i was just counter-arguing the "osl>>msl".
What i not agree is that he won because savior was not familiar with the build. He won because he were superior, a fact proved by his victories until today.

That same argument you put (need to fight from the bottom) can be used to say that MSL worth more, as you need to prove yourself more.
But, my point is, in both leagues we have the same maps, players, and bo5. Why a win of Bisu 3-2 vs JD in MSL can be worse than a win of JD 3-2 over Bisu on OSL, with both players trainning hard for the matchup? That is.

OSL is, has always been, and will always be a more prestigious tournament than the MSL. To bear an OSL title means more than to bear the MSL one. It's just a fact.

This does not mean that MSLs are easier to win or that OSLs are harder, that depends on many things (map pool, players in the quarter and semi-finals, etc.).

(my blank)

With that you said, how can OSL>MSL argument be cannon? This is just contradiction.

I know this is somewhat "common sense", but i disagree completely, by the same arguments i posted earlier.

Koreans say so, so we must agree. You ask how we can say that OSL>MSL and we gave you the answers. But you aren't satisfied. We're not saying one's easier or harder, but players value the OSL more.

Well, sorry if i do not blindly follow what others say. And i dont know if all koreans think this way anymore, perhaps some years ago.

I just read the OSL/MSL history, and i saw why OSL has this reputation, and its deserved.
But i can say also that, from some years ago to today, its not that different anymore.

From MSL FAQ:
"What is the MSL?
MSL stands for MBCGame Starleague. MBCGame is a division of MBC which is one of Korea’s biggest television networks. Although traditionally MSL is seen as the lesser of the two major leagues, these days it is seen on par with OSL (in fact it currently has larger monetary backing than OSL). MBC also sponsor a progaming team."

So i see im not wrong.

Well, we went away from the topic, so i think its better if end this discussion

Dude...it seriously seems like (if the tone of the original article was carried over in the translation) that the author was slanting his writing heavily to imply some kind of dumb awkward discomfort between the two. The whole thing feels unnatural.


I'd guess the interviewer was either slanting the article, deliberately trying to make them feel awkward, or both.

But excellent translation (reads really well in English!) and thanks!!!

OSL means so much more than MSL, especially when you're seeded at the top and have to play fewer games when everyone has to fight from the bottom to win an MSL.


Jaedong is a Royal Roader. He won his first OSL when he didn't have a seed.

Bisu is a Royal Third Place or Royal Ro8 or something, not going to bother looking it up...

Stupid argument IMO.
May the BeSt man win.

(P)Bisu and (Z)Jaedong. The two progamers responsible for drawing my interest into StarCraft progaming in the first place. Their first encounter on Blue Storm is the first professional game I have ever watched and it still holds a special place in my mind. That is why I am a fan of both players

Thank you very much for the translation. Highly appretiated..

Koreans say so, so we must agree. You ask how we can say that OSL>MSL and we gave you the answers. But you aren't satisfied. We're not saying one's easier or harder, but players value the OSL more.


Well, sorry if i do not blindly follow what others say. And i dont know if all koreans think this way anymore, perhaps some years ago.

I just read the OSL/MSL history, and i saw why OSL has this reputation, and its deserved.
But i can say also that, from some years ago to today, its not that different anymore.

From MSL FAQ:
"What is the MSL?
MSL stands for MBCGame Starleague. MBCGame is a division of MBC which is one of Korea’s biggest television networks. Although traditionally MSL is seen as the lesser of the two major leagues, these days it is seen on par with OSL (in fact it currently has larger monetary backing than OSL). MBC also sponsor a progaming team."

So i see im not wrong.

Well, we went away from the topic, so i think its better if end this discussion

There was a write-up somewhere on TL that accurately described the relationship between MSL and OSL by saying "no one plays StarCraft dreaming of the MSL gold... It's the OSL championship that fills the hopes of players [sic]." Just because OSL is less frequently played, is older (I believe), and is generally bigger (in every sense of the word) than the MSLs makes it the #1 priority for people playing individual leagues. Just because the difference between the two has diminished due to funding, it has not diminished due to history or tradition. There is a reason why you get the Golden Mouse after 3 OSL victories and nothing for 3 MSLs (Bisu).

But I think the OSL lost some ground in the last couple of seasons. Not that the money got less, but OGN keep making even the further stages of the tournament in their studio, before, they were gathering huge audience even for the Ro8, check Ever 2007 for the reference, iirc the last OSL held that way.

OSL is still the pinnacle of the korean scene, but in the last couple of seasons I find it.... dull

To be honest, I do not understand why that is. There should definitely be something for 3 MSL`s as well.

A golden keyboard, perhaps?

for winning the 3 msl players get golden ring (?!), yes superdanielman keeps mentioning that when it comes to bisu. I dont know what this exactly is, maybe they have in mind that the 3rd MSL badge is golden or smth

Yes there is some award for the 3rd MSL but it's definitely not as prestigious as the Golden Mouse, as evidenced by the fact that none of you have seen it/are sure of what it is.

Hi, you ommitted the part about what they do in their free time (at the end of Practice Junkies paragraph). So you might want to add this in:

"Then what do these 'practiceholics' do in their free time? "We barely have any free time so whenever we do we must try and occupy ourselves doing something. Sometimes we go out with teammates to eat "Odaeng" (korean fish dish, pretty much eaten casually, like hotdogs), and other times when there's nothing specific we just hang around in the streets. Staying in our living quarters is too claustrophobic". Jaedong always goes "out". Bisu, on the other hand, tends to catch up on his lack of sleep."

There IS an award for a 3rd MSL, that IS FACT, whether one tourney or the other is more difficult and prestigious is open to debate, however if you ever happen to watch some of Savior's games during 06-early 07 or in the first GOM, you'll see the camera centering on a golden MSL badge near his black shirt pocket. I believe there has been recent pro league games where it showed Bisu having a similar golden badge as well.
