Source: This Is Game

You advanced to the Premier League. How do you feel?

It feels like I’ve come back home. I won the championship for the final BW season and the previous one there, and I also participated in the Auction All Kill OSL. I thought to myself that I was lacking during all this time for SC2, but I am really excited for this season. I think it’s going to be fun.

Are you excited because your SC2 skills have gotten better?

Recently, I slightly increased the amount of practicing that I do. I guess you could say I increased it about an hour or two? Thanks to that, my skills improved a lot (laughs). Even before that, it’s not like I was not practicing during my losing streak for Proleague. I think I’m seeing a great effect because I increased my practice time after practicing diligently for so long.

Is the fact that you have a lot of televised matches experience helping you out?

I don’t think televised matches experience is playing that big of a role. Now, it feels like my practice performances and televised performances are about the same. And I think my skills have improved a lot.

Looks like you are booming with confidence. What are your goals for the next season?

I’m not sure what to say yet (laughs). But I do know that I want to at least get to the semi-finals. With my skills the way it is right now, I think I’ll be able to make it to the semis with relative ease. But I am a little worried about PvPs. Including Proleague, I have a lot of experiences where I got stopped because of PvPs.

OGN stated that there is a possibility that this season’s championship could count for the Golden Mouse achievement.http://wiki.teamliquid.net/starcraft/Golden_Mouse

If that is true then I will make sure I win the championship no matter what (laughs). A while ago, the OGN PD stated that there was a possibility of connecting OGN championship victories onto SC2 results. Personally, I can’t help but feel like this upcoming OSL season will be my golden mouse achievement.

Well then, don’t you think you need to change your goals?

I was worried that stating that getting to the finals right off the bat is my goal would make me look conceited (laughs). That’s why I said that the semi-finals was my goal but I have the confidence right now to get to the finals.

How did you prepare for today’s games?

It is really difficult to prepare for the Up/Downs. So I just worked on deciphering the maps as I prepared for my games. I had to prepare for Proleague while also preparing for my many opponents on many maps for Up/Downs. It was especially difficult to prepare for Daybreak and Red City.

Anything else you would like to say?

Before I came to the studio today, I participated in the MLG Anaheim qualifiers. I had to wake up early in the morning and play even though I wasn’t fully awake, so it was really disappointing that I didn’t make it even though I was so close. I am sad because I really wanted to go to America. But I think my victory today through Up/Downs kind of comforted me. Since I made it to the OSL, I will do even better.

After one year, you’ve returned to the Premier League.

I knew that already almost a year had gone by. I remember that my last Code S game was June 19th of 2012. After getting eliminated from Code S last year, I then went on to get eliminated from WCS, and then OSL. When I was playing during that time, I think I was just really on a decline. I also remember that I fell to Code A after becoming the very first victim to STX SouL’s INnoVation. It just felt like I couldn’t take any risks because I was playing the game to survive. I wanted to play it safe so I didn’t even go for any all-ins. That’s how miniscule I was feeling. But I worked really hard so that I could approach my games today with the mentality that I was going to do my absolute best. My opponents also made mistakes but I think I was able to advance today because of my mindset.

You stated in a previous interview that you wanted to remain surviving in a powerful league.

That’s correct. I said that. And today, I felt a strong blissful sensation. I wanted to get through Korean leagues for this exact reason. I feel like I wouldn’t have been able to feel this kind of sensation had I switched regions. I feel blissful and I won so my happiness has increased like 4x today. During my game against JangBi, I told myself that I was going to get through if I just won this one but then I ended up losing. But I learned a lesson that I need to play all my games effortlessly. This is something that my dad has always been telling me but I finally realized what it meant to do that today.

The game vs Swagger was very fierce.

In that game, Swagger made two mistakes and I made one. I had the advantage early on but I did badly so I allowed a comeback to happen. And then Swagger repaid the favor by doing badly also so I was able to win. But I’m not really all that gloom about it. I kept playing with the thought that I was going to win if I kept going. I was able to win because I told myself to keep fighting till the end. I felt really good after that game ended.

You’ve played in YongSan before and now you will be returning soon.

The GOMtv studio is closer to my home so I like it there better (laughs). But YongSan is where I experienced an event called the Courage Match and I participated in the Dual Tournament there. I’m glad that I get to perform on the main stage and not the other non-official one. I plan on taking a break after today so I am going to use this time to fully rest up. But I also plan on practicing even more than I’ve been doing now. I hope I will be able to find a lot of players willing to help me. I got lucky today with the 3 Protoss group but it’s difficult for me to find Terran/Zerg practice partners. But I’m okay for ZvP.

So you practice alone?

Yes, mostly I practice alone. And then when the dates for tournaments get near, I ask players I know to help me with practice. Even if my opponent tells me that he’s dying to take a break, I still keep on practicing.

What kind of results are you expecting for next season?

I’m sure that many people are expecting me to get eliminated right away. I really can’t deny that notion (laughs). But I want to break any stereotypes. When I got eliminated from the Ro32 of Code S three times in a row, I was really angry at myself. So I want to at the very least, get to the Ro16 this time. But in my mind, my ultimate goal is always the championship.

Anything else you would like to say?

I have to talk about boss Choi Pil Woo. I wanted to go straight to the Premier League after winning the first round of the Challenger League, but I ended up losing and fell to the Up/Downs so I was really upset. But even through all that, I get to give this great news to boss Choi who kept having expectations for me so I am glad. Today, a lot of acquaintances cheered me on. I am glad that I was able to meet people’s expectations. I also want to thank coach Cella for connecting me to boss Choi.

It gives Jangbi an unfair advantage over Rain for first SC2 Golden Mouse winner.

Personally though I think it's really dumb and they should just have it count separately. Golden Mouse is supposed to signify dominance not technicalities ~_~

I don't know what you mean but they're not going to just give a Golden Mouse to whoever wins.

Rain has to win two more.

Only if Jangbi wins OSL since it would be his third OSL win. They just continue the tradition into SC2.
