**O SHIET~~ Nada in different uniform!!!

Genius Nada(oGs) will finally set out to the main stage of Starcraft 2

On October 12th, Nada went through the GSL Starcraft 2 Open Season2 Preliminary round and made it to the main stages. Nada gave a preview of what to come in Season 2 by giving a great performance in his first official games after converting to Starcraft2.

Interview with Nada

- You made it to the main stage for GSL Starcraft2 Open Season 2.
▲ It's been a while since I've played an official game. I was very nervous but I am glad I made it through. Watching (Lim) Yohan making it to the main stage motivated me. I feel good now.
*there should be an English word for 형....

- GSL 스타크래프트2 오픈 시즌2 본선에 진출했다.
▲ 오랜만에 경기를 했다. 긴장을 많이 했는데 올라가서 정말 다행이다. (임)요환이 형이 본선에 진출하는 것을 보고 동기부여가 됐다. 기분이 좋다.

- What did you do after announcing to convert over to Starcraft2?
▲ I tried to have my own personal time. I tried to get almost no contact from the outside. I had a lot of time to think and also thought about my career. I did not want to give up Starcraft2 so I decided to participate.
- 스타2 전향 발표 이후 어떻게 지냈나?
▲ 혼자만의 시간을 가지려고 노력을 많이 했다. 외부의 연락을 거의 받지 않았다. 생각을 많이 했고, 진로에 대한 고민도 많이 했다. 스타크래프트2는 포기하고 싶지 않아서 참가하게 됐다.

-You joined oGs.
▲ I was practicing by myself at first. It has been only a few days since I joined oGs. I wanted to look for a team rather than practicing by myself and concluded that oGs is a great team. When I met up with (Hwang) Kyu Hoon (Spunky), our thoughts seemed to agree. I practiced yesterday at the house and I was able to pass on to the main stage because a lot of the players helped me out. I thank my oGs teammates.

- oGs에 입단했는데.
▲ 처음에는 혼자 연습을 했다. oGs에 입단한 것은 며칠 되지 않았다. 혼자 하는 것보다 팀을 찾고 싶었고 oGs가 훌륭한 팀이라고 생각했다. (황)규훈이 형과의 만남에서 서로의 생각이 잘 맞았다. 어제도 숙소에서 연습을 했는데 많은 선수들이 도와줘서 진출할 수 있었다. oGs 팀원들에게 감사드린다.

- You and Boxer drew a lot of attention by participating in the Preliminaries.
▲ There are things I dreamed remembering the past. It feels like I'm back in the past. I couldn't fail to go on to the main stage after (Lim) Yohan made it through. We cheered each other on. It was tight, but I am relieved that I made it through.
- 임요환 선수와 함께 예선에 참가하며 많은 관심을 받기도 했다.
▲ 과거를 회상하면서 꿈꿔왔던 것이 있다. 예전으로 돌아간 듯한 느낌이 든다. (임)요환이 형이 올라가있는 상황에서 내가 떨어지면 안될 것 같다는 생각을 했다. 서로 응원을 했다. 아슬아슬하긴 했지만 나도 진출하게 되어서 다행이다.

- How were the preliminary matches today?
▲ All the games were pretty easy(basic) except the final round. I was familiar with Soohan Kim (100prowin), whom I met in the final round, he has a strong early game pressure. I was caught off guard in the first round and lost, but after that, it was pretty intense.
- 오늘 예선 경기들은 어땠나?
▲ 결승전 외에는 모두 무난한 편이었다. 결승전에서 만난 김수한 선수는 내가 아는 선수인데, 초반에 강력한 압박을 하는 선수다. 1세트에서 방심한 관계로 쉽게 패배했고, 그 이후에 긴장감 넘치는 승부를 펼쳤다.

-Your previous fame might be a burden to you.
▲ I have forgotten all thoughts about Starcraft (1). I am playing Starcraft2 in the same mindset as when I first started. I will have a mind of a rookie. But I think I should try to satisfy my fan's expectations.
- 전에 쌓은 명성 때문에 부담감도 있을 것 같다.
▲ 스타크래프트에 대한 마음은 모두 잊었다. 스타크래프트2는 예전에 처음 시작했을 때의 마음가짐으로 임하고 있다. 신인의 자세로 임할 것이다. 하지만 팬들의 기대에는 부응해야 한다고 생각한다.

-What result would meet the fan's expectations?
▲ I think I should make it to the finals. Honestly, I had no confidence when the finals aired in season1. But I kept trying my hardest, and gained my confidence after joining oGs.
- 기대에 부응할 만한 성적은 어느 정도인가?
▲ 결승전까지는 가야 한다고 생각한다. 솔직히 시즌1 결승전을 할 때까지만 해도 자신감이 없었다. 하지만 계속 노력했고, oGs에 입단하면서 자신감이 생겼다.

-Do you have a player you want to meet in the finals?
▲ I would like to have a match against Lim Yohan. I did not practice with Lim Yohan personally.
- 만약 결승전에 간다면 맞붙고 싶은 선수가 있나?
▲ 임요환 선수와 경기를 하고 싶다. 임요환 선수와는 따로 연습을 한 적은 없다.

-Are there any advantages for the Starcraft Progamers?
▲ I think that the game Starcraft itself is very hard. I could see that the players with superior gaming sense would do well. But you have to use a little bit more brains than the prequel.
- 스타크래프트 프로게이머 출신들이 유리한 점이 있나?
▲ 스타크래프트라는 게임 자체가 굉장히 어렵다고 생각한다. 거기에서 게임 감각과 센스가 상위권이었던 선수들은 충분히 잘할 수 있다고 본다. 하지만 전작보다는 머리를 잘써야 한다.

-How do you see the race balance?
▲ It is pretty difficult to win playing **EDIT "vs Zerg" instead of as** Zerg at the higher levels. I think the current balance is not that great (laugh). Patch1.2 is previewed, and if that goes through and the Zerg players from SC1 convert over, Zerg will overrun everything.
- 종족 밸런스는 어떻다고 생각하나?
▲ 상위권에서 저그전을 하면 생각보다 이기기가 쉽지 않다. 지금의 밸런스가 그렇게 좋은 것 같지는 않다고 본다(웃음). 1.2 패치가 예고되어 있는데, 그 내용이 이어지고 아마 스타1의 저그들이 넘어오면 저그가 모두 휩쓸 것 같다.

- Lim Yohan said that if Terran gets harder for him, he is willing to change his race.
▲ I only know how to use terran. Honestly, I agree with Yohan's Statement. I wish there was a terran player in the commentary(Korean) staff (laugh).
- 임요환 선수는 테란이 더 어려워진다면 종족을 바꿀 수도 있다는 말을 하기도 했다.
▲ 나는 할 줄 아는 것이 테란 뿐이다. 사실 (임)요환이 형의 말에는 적극 동의한다. 해설위원 중에서도 테란이 한 분 있었으면 좋겠다(웃음).

-It feels as if you have some words to say to the fans.
▲ All I can say to my fans is sorry. I couldn't express anything to them for a while. I wrote a short sentence in my diary saying 'I will walk my road and want to to be owner (head... host... please translate this for me anyone?) anywhere I go.' I will elaborate further in the future. Please cheer me on a little more (literal translation is "I would like it if I have more support.")
- 팬들에게 하고 싶은 말이 있을 것 같다.
▲ 팬들에게는 죄송하다는 말 밖에 못하겠다. 그 동안 어떤 표현도 하지 못했다. 다이어리에 짧게나마 글을 썼는데 '내가 갈 길을 갈 뿐이고, 어디서든 주인이 되고 싶다'는 내용이었다. 조만간 그에 대한 더 자세한 글을 쓰도록 하겠다. 더 많은 응원을 해주셨으면 좋겠다.

- The general evaluation is that the level of gaming increased in Season 2.
▲ I agree. Players who drew lot of attention in Season1 failed to qualify and I think it will get harder in Season3
- 시즌2의 난이도가 시즌1보다 높아졌다는 평가가 있는데.
▲ 그렇게 생각한다. 시즌1 때 주목받은 선수들이 대거 탈락하는 경우가 발생했는데 이는 시즌3 때는 더 힘들어질 것 같다.

- Any additional words.
▲ People from my school cheered me on. I would like to thank Shin Hyun Gook from school. Hong Sehyun came to cheer me on today although he lost in the final round yesterday. I would like to thank my fellow students at Inha University who cheered me on.
- 더 하고 싶은 말이 있다면.
▲ 학교에서 응원을 많이 해줬다. 학교 친구 신현국에게 너무 고맙다. 어제 결승전에서 탈락한 홍세현이라는 친구가 오늘 응원을 와줘서 너무 고맙다. 응원해준 인하대학교 학우분들에게도 너무 감사드린다.

I decided to do this to improve my Korean to English translation skill. Please feel free to post edits.

just use the suffix -hyung for 형. if it really concerns you, add a translators note saying it's 'older friend/brother in korean' or something like that, but most people shouldn't be bothered by it.

also 환 is hwan not han, just something minor.

He joined oGs? Pretty huge news imo. Basically all the oGs players got a veteran who can, if anything, help them prepare better as progamers, if not as players of a specific race.

Love his comments about Zerg. 1.2 can't come fast enough, even if it's just to change perceptions.

Hell yeah, let's hope for some effort and JD action soon! Nice interview btw.

Did you miss that? There was this huge thread of speculation before the announcement.

I think you can use hyong, most people are probably familiar with that term. and it definitely sounds better than 'brother' or 'older brother'.

and of course thanks for the translation!

edit: GTR already wrote the same thing, sorry for that -.-

ooo did he say sc2 requires more brain than bw. not that i agree or disagree but it seems controversial and might distance him further from some of his fans who were angered by his switch.

but, really looking forward to watch him play! The bad thing is i probably will have to buy tickets on multiple days because i doubt they will put nada and boxer at the same day =(

sigh.. i guess there is no option but buying the season ticket
