I'd like a few more lighthearted non game related questions too so we can get to know them. Maybe ask who the funniest IM teammate is, their favourite movie or things like that. I imagine they get a million game related questions already so it would be nice to mix it up.

This is great news!

Which foreigners are they currently most impressed with?


Seconded, I'm really curious about their thoughts on foreigners as well.

And what did they think of Blizzcon?

edit: Also, what does MVP think about the WCG finals being bo3?

Ask them if they will ever go to another MLG? I heard that they were not happy about the format.
And in case they say no, also ask them what changes in MLG format would make them reconsider.
I really really would like to see another MLG IMvasion.

Why do you think...? They had to play like 30 games against bads just to get to the same place seeded players ended up.

Play some "would you rather" imo. That sounds like fun.

Ask MVP and Nestea what they are planning on doing after they are done being pro gamers.

The main questions seem to be:

1. Typical foreigner vs korean talk
2. Typical BW background vs Non-BW background talk

but I want to ask...

1. Do you still keep in close contact with your friends from BW? If so, whom?
2. Who do you think is the next up-and-coming champion in SC2?
3. What do you think is your strongest point, and what is the weakest?
4. Why is SC2 so unstable and people go through such quick rises and slumps?
5. What do you think is different about the ZergBong in BW, and the Nestea in SC2? In harsher terms, what made him from an infamously low-class player in BW who was made fun of endlessly, to the Zerg mastermind in SC2?
6. What are people in the IM house saying about HOTS? Is it also "Heartbreak of the Swarm" to you as well?

Thanks!
BW Forever. Flash is the Ultimate Bonjwa.

Not enthusiastic about the interviews honestly. Koreans basically never say anything of any import. Prepare yourselves for "I want to give good games, I will try harder, thank you for cheering for me, I dont do much but play starcraft 2, I want to make money to repay my parents" and not much else.

MVP in previous interviews usually gives pretty good insightful answers. The right questions need to be asked thou

Well if you ask the right questions you won`t get that. Obviously if you ask generic stuff like "how do you feel about winning this tournament?" or "what will you do with the money?" or "what do you feel your chances are?"..you will get those kinds of answers.

Awesome! It's a shame the chilltoss won't be there for the interview, but such is life.

1. I agree with the earlier post about asking NesTea what changed for him from BW, great question from Keone.
2. Also, I'd like to know about the growth of players in the IM house, for instance, what has allowed Happy and LosirA to become code S players while under Mvp/NesTea's tutelage (or at least living in the house with them after they were established as elite) and what has set them apart from other up-and-comers on IM or other teams that haven't seen success.
3. What's the deal with Koreans in America and wearing hats? BoxeR, NesTea, MMA, Mvp, they all like to wear baseball caps at MLGs. At first I thought it was just more elaborate team/sponsor plugging, but then MMA wore an Oakland A's hat to Blizzcon. I don't get it.

I think it depends on the translators really. Hwanni is BY FAR the best translator while others will try to give concise and short answers.

SC2 isn't as invisible in SK as people think it is. Living here has shown me there are plenty of fans of both games, and the recent gaming expo event had tons of people checking out SC2. PC Bangs are full of people playing sc2 and sc1 here in my town.

I'm still doubtful. I've read probably a hundred interviews or more, of which a good portion were the 50 Q@A or more indepth type, and ive still seen essentially nothing that was insightful or personal from a korean. Maybe a handful of times theres been an interview which actually didnt waste everyones time in reading it.

When do YOU think flash jaedong bisu and the likes will transfer to sc2 and will anybody stand a chance against them ? should we all just run in circles and die(metaphorically speaking)?
