God he's boring. I can just imagine his answer to a question about Cake Girl

"Eh? She's ok I guess but I really only focus on my own looks so I didn't really notice"
Oh, my achin' hands, from rakin' in grands, and breakin' in mic stands

This interview is is exactly as I thought it would be. I'd be disappointed if it turned out any other way. 100% dedication to the game.
Parting: Well, even I can make better maps than these.

Ironically I find the world would be boring without guys like innovation. Nothing wrong with people who have personality types that you are not used to, or think is "normal".

He is not your typical attention whoring teen. I imagine he is much more open to those he trust and close to him.

His response when day9 asked if he would rather be a duck or a goose makes complete sense now.

Well, I think walking is a nice hobby

He's kinda funny in the way that he just doesn't seem to give a crap about his fans or the attention he is getting. Like, he doesn't even care enough to pretend like he cares. Which is fine by me, at least there's no danger of having an inflated ego or anything like that.

I kind of like it, weirdly enough. No fluff, no bullshit.

Thanks for the interview!

"At first, I thought that one championship would be enough to be call myself a good player, and be called a good player by others. But after winning a championship, I didn't really feel anything, so I think I have to keep winning. "

Hahaha, what a baller

Dedicated to his job/hobby, doesn't watch TV, likes walking and doesn't really care what random people think about him. Definitely like him.
Ofc, someone like MC is a way more entertaining, but that doesn't mean everyone should be like him.

I like how young man can focus on one thing and tries to be best at it. This is really almost imossible for older men who cares about many things at once. Thats why i think the most successfull progamers are about 16-24 years old. After this age you start to care about many things at once (about girls, for example). Look at (Z)Jaedong and (P)Bisu. They want girls, it's obvious.

Wow, didn't expect so much hate and ignorance on TL towards what simply seems a strong introvert. The most intelligent and interesting people I know in real life (most of them physicists) would give interviews just like this. They don't care about "the mass" and seem distant from outside, but once you really get to know them it's a whole different world. They do what they enjoy and are excellent at it and often have "unpopular" hobbies etc.


Then you shouldn't be that surprised that only few people can relate to him. 'I am secretly amazing and nobody knows it' is funny when you talk about in forums where people 'socialize'.

You cant be one of the best at something by spending most of your time practicing at it and still be the most interesting man in the world or something. He just enjoys getting better at SC 2 and he is just humble and quite nothing wrong with that.

It is funny people call him boring based on a interview. Because interviews show personality, wait they don't if the person chooses not to. The only think I see in the interview is a person that is doing the interview because he kind of must, but does not really care about fans.

Whatever people think of the interview and peoples reaction to it, we can all have peace in mind knowing that there is one guy who doesn't care either way.
