"We will forget today's games and prepare diligently for tommorrow".
These questions were all for the Hwaseung Head coach.
-What are the main reasons for your unexpected 0:4 loss?
▲I feel that the players were unable to display their expertise properly. Therefore, we will forget today's losses because we cannot afford to be discouraged by today's result. After reviewing today's games, we will prepare for tomorrow. The series is not over yet.
-What is the main cause of Jaedong's (reverse) loss in the first set?
▲I feel that he thought that he had an advantage, but then he became careless. His mistake was relaxing before the game is completely over. However, Fantasy's management was also very good.
-Considering today's total loss, will this be a problem for tomorrow's games?
▲I will order my players to forget today's games. But, I will go back with them and do a thorough analysis and make sure that there will be no problems in tomorrow's games. Although the results may not be favorable, we will make sure that the games that the players prepare have end up well.
-If you were to pick out the sets you will win tomorrow, what would they be?
▲My mindset is that we have to win every set tomorrow. In the second series, we have to win all the games, including the ace match, so we cannot concede any more games.
-Do you have any special words that you want to say?
▲Once again, we will forget today's games and we will prepare diligently so as to make ourselves known.

-What are your feelings after winning the games in Day 1?
▲SKT T1 Head Coach (Park Yong Woon) = I am thankful towards all the players who did their best, and we won't be intoxicated by today's victory. We will win the tournament with even more thrilling games tomorrow.
▲Fantasy = Since I won a game where I was at a disadvantage, I am very happy. However, tomorrow's games are more important, so I will concentrate on them instead.
▲Canata = Since Fantasy beat the other team's ace in the game before mine, I was able to play my set comfortably. Our team was able to win easily after Jaedong lost.
▲Hyuk = During our practice, my win percentage was high so I was not stressed. The ability to play confidently was most important factor in my win. Although I am going to play against Jaedong tomorrow, I think that if I don't feel pressured, my chances of victory will be increased and I will do my best.
▲Best = Although I won my game today, I will not be careless and I will secure another win tomorrow.
-Why did you offer the head shaving challenge? (to the hwaseung head coach)
▲SKT T1 Head Coach (Park Yong Woon) = Yesterday, I saw the Hwaseung players arrive at HaewoonDae from afar and as I saw their faces, they did not look like they were ready Haewoondae (for the finals). I felt that if there was an opportunity to throw them off balance, in that situation then we could gain an advantage. My idea was the head shaving challenge. I only made this proposal to generate a little excitement for e-sports, so I hope they don't feel too bad about it. If the Hwaseung Oz head coach accepted my proposal, I would have shaved my head.
-Did you expect to win with a score of 4:0?
▲SkT T1 Head Coach: I thought that if Fantasy wins against Jaedong, then a 4:0 sweep would be possible.
-As you came down to Busan, you suffered from an eye infection. (to hyuk)
▲Hyuk = Since I had an eye infection, I had a lot of trouble. On the first day we came down to Busan, my eye was so swollen and it was difficult to practice. My manager and coach took a lot of care of me and thanks to them, the swelling reduced quickly and after that, I was able to practice without any problems.
-If your head-shaving challenge is seen through the wrong lens, it can seem like a crude provocation.
*▲SKT T1 jrsf coach = There was no talk in advance. It was a merely a strategy and if the Hwaseung head coach just accepted it, it could have been seen as a crude method, but since it went by well, I think that I used it effectively. Fundamentally, if you have a respectful midset, many people will understand what I tried to do. If you didn't see that I didn't mean to be bad mannered, it could be a problem, but I don't think it will be. My intention was to raise the interest in the second series, so I hope that you will be understanding.
-If you were to predict tomorrow's scores?
▲SkT T1 head coach = In the regular season or the post season, whenever anyone come to a sports stadium, everyone thinks that they will win 3:0 or 4:0. Whatever the differences in skill are, you always hope for a total victory. That's why I expect a 4:0 win tomorrow as well.
-Every player that won performed a ceremony today.
▲Fantasy = Because my nickname is Terrorist, I shot a gun. Since it was my first time, I couldn't do it well. I will show a proper ceremony tomorrow.
▲Canata = Lately, it seems that most people think that I have a cutesy image. Therefore, I picked a cute ceremony to perform today. Although I placed more weight/importance on today's game, I will show a good ceremony tomorrow.
▲Hyuk = What I did today wasn't what I originally prepared. However, what I wanted wasn't available, so it seems that the company took the trouble to prepare a ceremony for me.
▲Best = Since my nickname is Monster, I did the ceremony that I did. Tomorrow, I will show a much more fun and better ceremony.
▲SKT T1 Head Coach (Park Yong Woon) = The ceremonies that we have selected from a contest have not been announced yet. After returning to our living quarters, we will prepare diligently and definitely show you our ceremonies tomorrow.
-How will you prepare for tomorrow's games?
▲SKT T1 Head Coach (Park Yong Woon) = although I have said it on the stage already, we have seen Hwaseung lose 0:4 in the second day of their series with our own eyes, only to win in the ace match.Therefore, we cannot allow ourselves to be intoxicated by our victory and become complacent. We will definitely win tomorrow's matches as well and finish the tournament with a win.
