Ill clarify the diet comment.

Korean people tend to talk about your weight almost like it's making small talk. When seeing family for the first time in a long time the first thing they say to you will likely be something about your weight..."Oh, you've lost weight!" or "oh, you've put on some weight". It's not meant to be rude or anything, just how the culture is.

Amazing interview.

I love how MC is cocky but at the same time isn't afraid to give credit to players where credit needs to be given. He realizes that there are other amazing players that might beat him in the future, doesn't proclaim himself to be the best and then cry about balance.

That said please don't pick MKP in group stages!!11

I love his style. Cocky but has every right to back up his cockiness with hard work and awesomeness.

Also, oGsthewind just refuses to budge from Code S. I reckon he stays in Code S forever and never get past round of 8. I don't even understand why he is playing, and to be honest he seems to be such a freakin' baller:
"Well, I'm not supposed to be playing this game myself... but heck I'll just be in Code S anyways. Why? Cuz I can"

Awesome interview. I think you just gotta love MC for being the baller he is.

Nice transition from "suicide toss" to "president toss" anyways

I think somewhere in the intro to the finals he even stated he want's to become/ be called "Emperor" or "King"

Psh, those are titles for terran players. MC gets the rank of Praetor if he becomes the first bonjwa.

Carry Wood Leaguer to victory in Monobattle. Watch MC bring Protoss another victory. Translate the words of your Great Hero.

All in a day's work, like a 'Toss.

Nice transition by SanZenith, going from "shit" to being mentioned by MC as one of the best protoss players aside from himself.

For the World Championship, Korea will be battling against other foreigners, and I don't think I even need to play, so I'm not putting too much focus in that.

Haha. What's more sad is that he's probably right..

I think the diet question is saved for JulyZerg when he win. But maybe the interviewer thought, ah what the heck MC is suitable for the question too and just use it.
