The Prime magazine(not yet published) would contain these. Have fun and wait for another news, please!
Q1. What is your best game ever? Why? Also, which game is the the one you remember most? Why? A1. The game that I remember most and consider my best is the 5th match of vs Kyrix in GSL Open Season 2. I can't forget that one because I was driven into a corner and the game went back and forth. I just came to my senses after the match. I felt I'd played like mad. I could say 'Ah, over,' after I beat him.
Q2. Who do you think has the best marine control? (Besides yourself, of course.) A2. Polt? Mvp or Taeja. Actually, I am proud of mine, but they control marines in a much more special way than other Terran gamers, both objectively and subjectively.
Q3. Could you give us your own tips for winning in-game battles? A3. Before I decide I can win the battle, I judge my opponent's supply of units. If I think I can win, I rush resolutely so my opponent feels withered. I can usually win when I do this.
Q4. Which race and player do you find most difficult to play against? Why? A4. Nowadays I feel the three of them are the same. I overcame my vs Terran, but vs Zerg and Protoss is going down(lol). The best players, still, are MC, Nestea, and MVP.
Q5. Which map do you think is the most unbalanced? A5. It is not certain because there are so many new maps now. I think Daybreak is not good for Terrans, a little bit, both for vs Zerg and Protoss.
Q6. How do you feel after doing a MULE ceremony? Aren't you afraid that it may be fed back to you? A6. Actually MULE is toast for my triumph. It may hurt my opponent's feeling if I use it often (lol). In fact, it is returned to me as often as I use it.
Q7. How do you generally prepare for a match? Do you analyze your opponent's play, or do you just practice/develop general builds that would work against their race in general? A7. In former days, I set build orders for all the games and I practiced a lot. But, nowadays, I practice basic ones and I think up a lot of build orders fitting the opponent's style, and I spontaneously adapt my build to situations occurring in the game.
Q8. Do you have any quirky habits or rituals right before a match? ^-^ A8. I think it's not quirky, but I have habit that I sleep early before the match day.
Q9. Why do you hate bunkers so much? I know bunkers can't be microed, but they keep your marines nice and safe, and you wouldn't want your marines to die would you? A9. I think I can come out ahead when I defend the opponent's rush without bunkers, but sometimes I can't defend when there's no bunkers.
Q10. How do you train your micro? Can you share some tips so we can marine micro as well as you can? A10. Practice it imagining that you can do it! And marine micro needs a lot of practice.
Q11. ThePlayer33: What do you think is the most OP unit in the game! XD A11. Fully upgraded Colossus or Archon.
Q12. MonkSEA: Who is the scariest foreign Zerg, Protoss and Terran players? A12. Stephano, Huk, and Kas.
Q13. How do you feel about being a model? A13. First it was akward, but now it is like my normal job, lol.
Q14. Who is the cutest pro gamer besides yourself? A14. Leenock who has eaten Cutiecutie Fruit.
Q15. Who is your favorite KPOP star? A15. I like IU's songs most!
Q16. What is your favorite song? A16. Yoari - Jogiyo = 요아리 - 저기요
Q17. How does it feel to be admired by a community like Reddit? A17. Cheerful messages fill my heart. They energize me, so I appreciate it.
Q18. Was progaming always your passion or have you always wanted to do something in modeling or fashion? (I like the way Prime has now combined them in order to sustain itself.) A18. I am very sad for my body isn't fit to be a fashion model, but I am very interested in fashion.
Q19. What is your favorite food from each of the places you have visited, and what is your favorite food in general? A19. I remember all the foods I ate in USA. I don't that hate greasy food, but I can't eat healthy there! lol I love ra-men.
Q20. Who does you consider as a rival besides MVP?? A20. I'd like to beat DongRaeGu now. I've lost a lot to him.
Q21. With MLG now offering paid hotel and transportation to and from their events, will we see you more often in the west? A21. Good for me! I am ready always!
Q22. Why are you so handsome? A22. I'm not(lol), I'd like to be.
Q23. How many pro-gamers have asked for your sister's phone number? A23. Not directly. A lot in indirectly, I think.
Q24. I've noticed you like to hug other progamers a lot. Based on your experience with both Korean and foreign progamers, who gives the best cuddles? A24. You know, Leenock. Toooooooooooo Soft to be crazy.
Q25. Which progamers do you view as you closest friends? A25. Ghostking(=Byun) and cOre. They are same age as me. Actually, most of the gamers are friendly.
Q26. Who do you want as your opponent at Final to beat you? (You are runner-up) A26. lol! My opponent wanting for me to become runner-up! How about MKP?
Q27. Who do you think is the most underestimated Prime team member? A27. Creator. He is admired as one of the top Protoss among us, but he's not underestimated still. Remember him, he'll do something big.
Q28. How many matches do you do for practice in a day? A28. If I think only about SC2, I don't eat and play matches all day. Usually I do 4~50 matches for I should care about myself.
PS1> 'jsemmens' helped fixing for natural translation. PS2> Sad for mkp, he can't get the next season S seed again.
I'll go for duty of army for 2 years(Korean Air Force). It means, I can't post up prime news anymore by myself, sorry. But another man would come here and post continually.

I guess it's a reference to the One Piece manga/anime. There you have 'fruits' that you can eat and give you special powers. Like the 'gum gum fruit' that makes you rubber. Same way the 'cute cute fruit' makes you cute I suppose ^^.

I know all about One Piece and I'm a big fan on o the series that's what it sounded like, but I wasn't completely sure. For all I knew Cutie Cutie could have been the name of a korean candy or soft drink.

MKP Y U No Continue Say Thorzain? =(
Just being respectful as Kas took the series vs MKP 2:0 during the wcg 2011 =\.
He said Thorzain is the best foreign Terran, now Kas is the best foreign Terran. I remember an old (maybe year ago) Thorzain's interview, he sais that Kas was the best. Now we have Kas to anwer this question.
This is some of the worst translating I've seen unfortunately. Can we get a better translation of this? At least the questions could be translated better.. its understandable if marineking's responses are a bit hard to translate but still.
Also I feel bad for marineking cause I think DRG's ZvT is easily his best matchup - MMA is the only one who can take him down in it. Marineking is unlikely to get his revenge.

But still, thank you for doing this
I'm a pretty big Thorzain fan but if you judge on current form I think Kas is better.

Kas beat him at wcg too
Ah I guess that'd explain. Toss up between Kas and Thorzain for best Terran according to MKP I guess? Haha.
I'm the original translator of the interview. I feel sorry for bad translation. I tried to look for natural translations, but my translation was not that natural to English speakers. I'll try much more next time. Thank you for feedbacks!

It isn't a bad translation, I could understand the meaning behind the questions so you did a good job. I look forward to more translations!
