awesome interview. Thanks for Translating. July always impresses me. He looks so cute and hug-able especially in Torch's Startale house video but he's the God of War.

One of the best interviews I've read so far. I just hope he doesn't burn out again anytime soon, getting to the finals of a Starleague is a pretty lofty goal.

Great interview, thanks!

Nice to see some insight in the BW->SC2->BW journey of Guemchi.
And now that he learned the ways to victory from the God of War himself I expect many victories from him

How come the questions (I'm assuming they are) don't end with a question mark? I realise they've even been re worded a bit to pass off as a statement but wouldn't it being in question form be easier?

Thanks for the translation.

Interesting to hear his take on what he went through. If his mindset has really changed (for the better?) after all his experiences, I hope we can see some results out of him as well.

Near-death experiences tend to be very motivating, I look forward to see how much he improves.

was he always this wise? o.o

maybe he become wiser after this near-death experience.

anyway best of luck to him. Love the fact that he says people should play what they enjoy and does not try to belittle others. That's an attitude we all need to have over here in TL as well.

You are supposed to start as a practice partner then switch to SC2 and then retire not the oher way around...

Very honest and interesting interview.

I've tried to make the translation as direct as possible; the interviewer asks his questions in a statement, so he's basically implying that whatever statement he says, Geumchi should respond to that. But now that I look through the original article, almost all the interviewer's "questions" are like this so it does seem strange here.

Personally I feel that both games have come from the same stem. I hope that both games can be successful. That way e-sports can get bigger. If there are feelings of resentment, then it’s just hard for the players. I hope there can be a win-win situation for both sides. I know that fans from both sides are fighting each other but I wish that everyone would see the two games with a positive eye. They have their differences but both games each have their individual merit.


Guemchi for President

My ultimate goal is to win a starleague. But first I want to help my team to victory. I want to stand on the stage of the finals and see what it feels like. When I get older and a lot of time passes, I feel like I’m going to grieve if was unable to ever reach the finals. A lot of my teammates are helping me and I’m doing my best so I will be playing again soon.


WOONJIN FIGHTING!!!!!!!

holy shit that interview was really cool, thanks for translating/posting. Guemchi is a really cool guy I'm happy he's back during a good time for Protoss
