Was kind of nice to read this and am being completely honest. No bs or anything. Always liked coach park glad he could be honest in the interview.

Also don't blame him on wanting jaedong :D.

Everyone wants the Dong.

wait, condensed and edited how????
Can we help spread the word and create pressure to get Rob Pardo to replace Browder as head of Sc2? Pardo led the team for broodwar, frozen throne, and wow/BC. We need to make this a thing before LotV development starts. Think about it.

Great interview, thanks TL!

I believe coach Park can turn things around at CJ, he absolutely knows what is required in professional starcraft and his past successes are no flukes. To be honest I feel he did a good job at EG-TL, despite the last place finish at the end you could see that he had a real positive influence all the while when the KespA teams are improving exponentially during the season.

The man speaks with so much depth. Love the honesty in the way he communicated his thoughts about the whole experience. It really helped me to shed some light on what he was going through. Pity he wasn't the head-coach from the get-go.

What could've been...

Amazing read, thank you much, much love.
Best thing for me last year was to see him enjoying his time next to The Dong, My Dong, Lee Jaedong in all those foreign tournies.
Coach Park is such a legend. Hwaiting!!♥

Wow, so much respect for everything he said.. So much basics that everyone seems to forget (and a bit trolling ofc. )

like - Him refusing to coach LoL teams - man, that was a start, but honestly that just blew my mind there..

then saying the following: If you're not the coach outside of the game then being the coach in-game will have the impact of hearing from one ear and then going out of the another - so much basics and so much truth in that

the part about schedule that one player woke up to practise at 10am, and then some of them woke up at 3pm ? - rofl, must've been Stephano the later

first impressions of Taeja as a player not being able to play without his brother , talking about JD's professionalism e.t.c.

great interview, and great questions, thanks TL

After reading that interview its no wonder that man gets so many great results on all the teams that he's coached. and its not surprising to see that the various ppl on EG-TL go on to great success in individual tourneys

What a great interview, I appreciated the honesty from Coach Park and you can tell he wasn't playing the blame game, he just wanted the best results possible with what he was given. Thanks Wax for putting this up!

It's a great interview, it really illustrates why it's a bad idea to leave a bunch of teenagers to their own devices. Pro gaming houses work best if ran like a military institution. What self-respecting coach would allow his players to wake up at 3PM? Or to live in a house with no curtains? (lol) This is also why team houses in the west fail, the people in charge pretty much have to beg players to at least schedule four hours of practice a day. There is no discipline because no one is in a position of authority.
Well, now I tell you, I never seen good come o' goodness yet. Him as strikes first is my fancy; dead men don't bite; them's my views--amen, so be it.

Nice interview, this is the kind of stuff that other pro teams need to be reading and learning from.
Don't let those anti-cheese advocates tell you what to do. Rush to meet life head on!
