Q. Congratulations on your victory. How are you feeling?
A. I'm happy that I won for the second time, and I will keep trying to win for the third, fourth and even eighth time.

Q. You kept your promise you made on media day that you would win 4:1.
A. I played comfortably. I was able to keep my own pace.

Q. What was the purpose of the nexus ceremony in the second set?
A. I wanted to intimidate the opponent and follow up from the zealot dance in the first set.

Q. With the victory today, you are now the number one in the prize ranking as well. How much more money do you want?
A. I'm setting my goal to 300,000,000 Won. If I participate in other tournaments like TSL, I should be able to surpass this goal easily.

Q. Did you expect ST_July's drop in the third set?
A. I didn't expect it at all. I was expecting him to come from the front, and I was very shocked to see him drop at my main.

Q. What did you think after losing the third set?
A. I thought 'I just took a punch'. I was already preparing for the dark templar build in the next set, so it didn't bother me that much.

Q. You didn't do a lot of damage with the dark templars in the fourth set.
A. I thought it was alright since I kept all of them alive and even killed a queen. The build was to lead the game to my flow. I even ordered my practice partners to start with making spore crawlers during my practice games.

Q. How are you going to spend the prize money?
A. I'm going to save up and buy a house. I bought my mom a new car with last tournament's prize.

Q. Are you planning on going on a diet?
A. Since being a progamer is very stressful, I relieve that stress by eating. I'm still exercising a lot, so I think I will lose some weight in the near future.

Q. You didn't use any colossi today.
A. I was confident in my gateway unit control. I didn't purposely neglect them, but I just played according to every situation. ST_July didn't force me to make collosi, so I played based on gateway compositions.

Q. With the second title, you have become the best. Who do you think can catch up to your career?
A. I don't think anyone can catch up to me. I don't know about second places, but I will always keep winning. As per each race, I think MarineKingPrime and IMMvp are the 2 best terrans, but IMMvp was knocked down to Code A recently, so it narrowed down to just MarineKingPrime. I think IMNesTea, ST_July and oGsZenio are the best zergs, and SlayerS_Alicia and sanZenith are the best protosses. I'm also expecting a lot from other oGs protosses.

Q. What are your goals in the World Championship and GSTL?
A. I want to win in GSTL and that's pretty obvious. However, I want to put winning aside for now and work well with my teammates first. 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.

Q. Are you planning ahead for the group selection for next season?
A. Many players are tackling me. MarineKingPrime and TSL_Rain want to get revenge on me, so I'm thinking of picking them. I want to ask everyone if they want to play against me and pick them if they wish to. I think oGsTheWind has been in Code S for too long. I want to knock him out so he can focus on coaching. (T/N: LOLLLLLL)

Q. What nickname do you like the best?
A. I like 'Protoss President'. I heard that foreigners call me 'boss'. I want to be called "Protoss Bonjwa' in the future.

Q. Any last comments?
A. oGs is now sponsored by ESH. I want to thank the related personnels. I also want to thank Manager Hwang Kyu-Hoon, Coach oGsTheWind and oGsGon for allowing me to focus on gaming. I will try my best to win in GSTL as well. I also want to thank my mom for always cheering and texting me words of courage.

wow, he had these builds meticulously planned out, even to the point where if he was completely hard countered he would still do what he wanted to do :o

For anyone who didn't know, oGsTheWind said on HuKs stream that if he got knocked out of this GSL he would retire

What's considered impolite in one culture may not necessarily be the same in another. Not that I know much about SK, just speculating.

Anyway awesome interview. MC really is sure of himself. That makes me feel a lot better after reading that thread about SC2 being too volatile, hopefully it's starting to stabilise and we may even soon see the emergence of our first bonjwa.

Hilarious interview:

#1) are you going to diet
#2) the wind needs more free time to be an awesome coach
#3) MC doesn't even think he'll be needed at the WC's xD

I'm always happy to see him win, since he always provides entertainment whatever he's doing xD

It will happen sadly .

Nice interview, a bit rude with that diet question tho. He's not fat come on, it's not like every progamer has to be as skinny as byun,hyperdub or ensnare.

I really lol'd at the diet comment. July is much heavier!

July: "HUNGRY."

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"

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"

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

sanZenith really that good?

Didn't actually manage to watch any of the GSL matches apart from the final, but I remember him being labeled one of the worst players in GSL together with BitByBit... and now this


also is MC trying to allkill through the GSTL all by himself? :D

I think people doesn't quite understand what a bonjwa is...A Bonjwa is someone who shows TOTAL DOMINANCE through a long time.

MC won season 3, and lost on GSL january, and now won again, this qualify him as a one of the best players, if not the best, but not enough from bonjwa.

Another thing about it is, look at BW, there wasn't a major tournament every month, so if someone is in a momentum it usually ends before the next tournament.This way you can really know who is just very strong and who is a true bonjwa.

He's more macro oriented than MC though wich leads to interesting games.

A. I wanted to intimidate the opponent and follow up from the zealot dance in the first set.

I like that answer. Im not a big fan of BM, but I am a big fan of mind games. I know if i saw that happen to me i might be a bit more pissed off on the next set. Who knows, that might give a slight edge.

What kind of question... lol. Rude to ask someone as they win. "Hey great job today, you're an amazing progamer. Kinda chubby though, any plans to fix that?"


I think America could do with more of this attitude..............!!!!!!!! Im still in shock from the last time I went to Dallas

How so? Lol, he's even giving credit to July. He knows he's the best right now, you can see the cockyness is an act unlike with some players.

At least he's kind enough to give credit, he could've just said everyone but him sucks.

Q. What nickname do you like the best?
A. I like 'Protoss President'. I heard that foreigners call me 'boss'. I want to be called "Protoss Bonjwa' in the future.


Oh my goodness, this made me giggle. Apparently he's seen people say things like, "MC is such a boss!" so frequently that he has come to think it's a nickname we gave him.

That's awesome.

Haha...I may not be a huge MC fan, but I have to admit this interview is awesome.

What are you going to do with the money?
Other Progamers: "give it to my parents I guess"
MC: "Imma buy a house"

How are you going to prepare for the World Championship?
Other Progamers: "I will train hard and do my best"
MC: "Korea vs foreigners lol, I won't even need to play"

Who do you want to face in the next GSL?
Other Progamers: "I will pick players who I can display my strengths against"
MC: "I wanna knock my coach out of Code S"

Also, in Korea it's actually pretty common to ask people questions like "are you going on a diet". People often comment on each other's appearance in ways that are brutally honest and would be considered rude in a lot of countries, but it's just considered normal and not something to take offense at.

Stating manZenith and Alicia as best protosses is pretty interesting, though to be fair they both did really well this season, alot better than more well known protosses.

I don't think anyone can catch up to me. I don't know about second places, but I will always keep winning. As per each race, I think MarineKingPrime and IMMvp are the 2 best terrans, but IMMvp was knocked down to Code A recently, so it narrowed down to just MarineKingPrime. I think IMNesTea, ST_July and oGsZenio are the best zergs, and SlayerS_Alicia and sanZenith are the best protosses. I'm also expecting a lot from other oGs protosses.


No Jinro? Hmm, I guess he was just off guard with the mech play.

Zenio? Hmm, wouldn't quite agree with that, but he is pretty good and I guess there aren't many other Zergs.

Alicia FTW :D San FTW :D

No FD/Genius but they haven't been doing so well recently I guess.

Lol at the diet one. That does make sense, however. Eating is very helpful.

Smart of him to buy a house too. Save up as much money and live off the interest and/or just buy a house all in one go and not have to worry about taxes and stuff xD

It's nice for the interviewer to ask him what name he wants, although that sort of defeats the purpose of having a fan-nickname.

Lol he wants TheWind to lose so he can coach? You could also say that because he is in Code S, he doesn't have to work as hard (as opposed to being in Code A and trying to work up) and therefore has more time to coach. He is the coach of his team though, so he's probably just joking/trolling xD

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.


Oh. Sucks to be JulyZerg in South Korea, then...

Q. Are you planning ahead for the group selection for next season?
A. Many players are tackling me. MarineKingPrime and TSL_Rain want to get revenge on me, so I'm thinking of picking them.

MC is such a hero. I love the confidence he puts out there- I can see nothing but good for eSports coming from having a champion like MC.

Now if only we could stop the Forcefield imba crying and appreciate the skill required to use them as MC did. There's a reason nobody else at the pro-level is as successful with the 6gate sentry timing push, and that reason isn't the "imbalance" of forcefields, it's the imbalance of MC

Winning 2 seasons doesn't make you a bonjwa. If he keeps this up for a year or 2, then I could call him a bonjwa.

There's a reason why there's only 4-6 bonjwas in over a decade of bw history. You don't just win for 2 months and become a bonjwa. You have to hold that dominance for a very long time.

It was sooo rediculus to se (P)MC's level of controll! And it looks like he just calmly took each match in stride straight to the win.

I thought is was interesting that he said that (Z)July " didn't force [him] to make collosi." So not only did he win, but pointed out that July didn't challenge him to change his builds. Also, this shows how comfortable he really is, being ready to adapt tho what the other player is doing.

MC makes Toss look so OP... but no other Toss demonstrates that level of dominance so you have to give him props.

I'm curious to see if other players start using mass, mass sentry (as opposed to just mass sentry) in games and if that affects game balance.

Im a zerg player so it was obviously disappointing to see July lose (esp. in a manner where he was completely outclassed). But I must say, MCs FF were pretty sick. They BARELY overlapped with each other which meant that he used them to their (almost) maximum efficiency. Thats something that I dont see often but something that I notice Tyler likes to stress. Wonder what he thought of the games, guess we'll find out on tuesday.

BossToss didn't use a single High Templar or Colossus in any of those games.

It was kind of anticlimactic to watch him just roll over July with the same basic WG pushes every game (except the one he lost), but.. that's just how MC does it!

He definitely is one of the best Terrans in the world.

Thing is, he's probably more on the same level as Nada rather than MVP/MKP.

Personally hte highlight of the interview was his rating of SanZenith as one of hte best tosses. That's just too amusing. Especially after Tastosis' trolling in the first few gsls :D

Awesome, thank you for the interview. Awesome job by oGsMC, but I feel he's coming off way too cocky (yeah, I know why he was called Suicide Toss, but still...).
And no recognition to Jinro?

Hhaha, if they asked MC if he was going on a diet, you think if July won they'd ask him if he was getting lip?

After watching the finals and reading some of MC's interviews he has officially become my favorite player. He is soooooo solid at everything and he makes it all quite entertaining at the same time. Gotta love the cockiness and his general attitude towards starcraft lol

Man I love MC's confidence and attitude toward the game, I don't think anyone can stop MC right now especially not a terran or a zerg but a PvP I could see him losing. Congratulations on winning GSL again and dominating in the finals for a second time.

What are you going to do with the money?

How are you going to prepare for the World Championship?
Other Progamers: "I will train hard and do my best"
MC: "Korea vs foreigners lol, I won't even need to play"

Who do you want to face in the next GSL?
Other Progamers: "I will pick players who I can display my strengths against"
MC: "I wanna knock my coach out of Code S"


Which is why I absolutely love this guy.

What kind of question... lol. Rude to ask someone as they win. "Hey great job today, you're an amazing progamer. Kinda chubby though, any plans to fix that?"


Haha. How funny would it have been if he just stared, dropped the mic on the floor and walked away from the interview.

To give an analogy to your argument, Kobe Bryant should not be arrogant even though he is the best player in the world, because we won't know if he will be #1 in 2 years? I don't know dude, seems like you are giving him too much crap Let him enjoy his success, he earned it in every way possible...

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.


People are overestimating the cultural difference. Yes, Koreans are more frank about weight and dieting. Yes, (like Americans?) Koreans joke about weight and tell family/friends that they've gained/lost weight, esp if they haven't met in some time. However, that's not the same as asking if he (a stranger) is going to diet in front of hundreds of people. It's as rude in Korean culture as it would be in others; I know because I'm Korean. Only way I see this question making sense is if a lot of people were talking about his weight/dieting on playXP or if he mentioned it in another interview somewhere.

Most likely the topic came up semi-randomly during the interview. These things get re-worded and re-written, so I'm betting that this question wasn't directly asked; just written as if it were.

MC is so confident he can say whatever the hell he wants, and nobody can call him out on it because he's a baller in game. It's refreshing to see a Korean progamer who has a big personality and isn't afraid to talk some shit.

Haha, wtf is this? I thought Koreans were supposed to be polite. Is MC fat?



in asian cultures, for some reason it's okay to call someone fat. It's like calling someone out on a nasty smoking habit in the US. It's seen as a health reminder or warning, like "you know that isn't healthy for you right?" Here in America we defend the fatties though XD

From what I gather many koreans (and other asian societies) don't find it rude to be very direct and straight forward. The question about him being fat is a perfect example. I'm pretty sure he wasn't offended. At least there's somewhere where people aren't overly worried about being politically correct. Great interview btw, funny that he wants to knock his coach out. I'm actually wondering if we will soon have our first Sc2 bonjwa.

Q. Are you planning ahead for the group selection for next season?
A. Many players are tackling me. MarineKingPrime and TSL_Rain want to get revenge on me, so I'm thinking of picking them. I want to ask everyone if they want to play against me and pick them if they wish to. I think oGsTheWind has been in Code S for too long. I want to knock him out so he can focus on coaching. (T/N: LOLLLLLL)

@gostunv

I think he means like, after he retires from progaming. Which might not be for a long long time. Perhaps people will start to play into their 40s heheh. But they'll make a lot of money if they keep most of it in the bank with interest (they probably really don't need to use much for anything, they already live in a team house and are fed).

Who would have ever expected this statement one month ago? Hahaha. San must be beaming right now.

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.

Oh snap! "Give me a call if you guys lose a game to those non-Koreans."

I love how people are making all these speculative comments about how Koreans are way more open about talking about their weight and shit. The fact of the matter is the neitzien starcraft communities have a lot of passive aggressive insular nerds just like we do. Really if someone like, "Sheth" (lol sorry bro) won a lot of tourneys in North America there would probably be a good amount of mildly derogatory comments on western forums about how he should probably watch his weight more or w/e. It has absolutely nothing to do with the game it's just how people are. If anything Koreans are less tolerant of people who have weight issue than western communities. PlayXP is just playing on its audience. It's fine to say it's not a big deal(because it in no way is) but don't pretend an apple isn't an apple. The question was kind of a dick move.

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.


I think arrogance is awesome. Makes it funner to cheer for/against him, adds spice to the scene, etc.

MC's an awesome dude. o.o

What's considered impolite in one culture may not necessarily be the same in another. Not that I know much about SK, just speculating.

Anyway awesome interview. MC really is sure of himself. That makes me feel a lot better after reading that thread about SC2 being too volatile, hopefully it's starting to stabilise and we may even soon see the emergence of our first bonjwa.


not only our first bonjwa, but our first protoss bonjwa, no sc1 or sc2 protoss that made it to that status. Make me proud mc

LoL, the poeple throwing around subjects like Bonjwa way to early. Players like Savior dominated the scene for about 10 month. MC didn't even dominate for one month.

I read that quote, that MC want to be called Bonjwa in the future, it's ok if it's not the near future.

Even if he takes the TSL and WC he still wouldn't be a bonjwa but would be closer. Now if he does that and gets his 8 GSL championships (preferably in a row) then it is probably ok to use the term

He loses to things he doesnt expect(the hydra drop).

Perhaps I'm having trouble understanding what the requirements for a Bonjwa are, besides dominating for a long time. I'm confused because I'm looking at SAviOr's liquipedia entry (never followed BW unfortunately) and under his accomplishment's list, it seems like his largest period of dominance was in 2006 - but even then, he didn't win everything - he got three golds and a silver. In other words, are you allowed to get 2nd, or even 3rd at some point in a year, and as long as you win most everything else in that timeframe, could you still be called a Bonjwa?

I dislike MC's attitude. I respect his skill, but his cockiness will eventually be his curse.
He might seem invincible now, but FruitDealer, Nestea, MarineKing & Mvp seemed invincible too at some point.. even a nerf or buff to the race could make a difference (who can be sure the game is 100% balanced right now..)

Give up now, there's honestly no rhyme or reason to it. It's just a popularity contest. Example, going by win-loss Boxer best year 2001, netted 73.68%, compared to Jaedong's entire career straight up netting 68.34%. Yet boxer is always listed as bonjwa and Jaedong isn't.

Nerd rage passing.

Given the quicker tournament turnover in SC2 compared to SC1, I think it is going to be harder to declare a bonjwa at all. I mean could even MC win 10 of 12 of these tournaments in a year? Whereas OSL MSL together only produce 6 a year.

Boxer were imho called Bonjwa years after his great accomplishments. The first Bonjwa who was called was Savior. If I remember right, he didn't lose a single Best of Series for about 10 month. Also he dominated the Proleague in this time. It was simply rare to see him lose. Nada, oov and Boxer are belated called Bonjwa (imho, I'm not 100% sure about that).

Jaedong also was very close to be called Bonjwa but Flash disrupted it all. : /

@Holyarrow: Note, that BW Tourneys like MSL/OSL goes for like 6 month instead of just one.

Q. With the victory today, you are now the number one in the prize ranking as well. How much more money do you want?
A. I'm setting my goal to 300,000,000 Won. If I participate in other tournaments like TSL, I should be able to surpass this goal easily.

participating = winning it all for MC

He might be somewhat funny etc but at the same time I think he is overdoing it..
A game where the first thing you do is scout with a “worker”. Does that make any sense? Who scouts with a “worker”? That’s like sending out the janitor to perform recon, what general would do that? Retarded game.
