Q: Hello, please introduce yourself.
Irena: Hello everyone, I am an esports fan and my name is Irena. I am an actress from China. I just signed a Korean acting agency, so I can be interviewed here. I am 21 year old.
Q: Thank you for taking this interview. Lots of Korean esports fans will read this interview. Will this give you pressure?
Irena: No pressure. I really like esports, so there is no pressure.

Q: You are Jaedong’s big fan. Is this true?
Irena: Although it is true, I like all players, not just Jaedong. Back then Team Liquid issued my interview, which really surprised me. (Translator: you are welcome  ) I was just making conversations with my friend, but he put our conversations into an interview. Anyway, it was fun.
Q: Is Jaedong considered a good-looking guy in China too?
Irena: Yes, and, no (smile). He is just my type. He normally has a poker face and being cool and attractive. But suddenly he can turn into this happy guy who has cute smile.
Q: So he is those cold metrosexual guy (positive), but also warm to women, right?
Irena: Yes.

Q: There are a lot of rising Chinese players.
Irena: The Chinese players are good. But I like the Koreans too. I just really like esports.
Q: So when did you start liking esports?
Irena: 3-4 years ago. I watched StarCraft matches with friends and then I thought it was interesting. I have been into gaming for a long time. StarCraft is my favorite and also WOW and DOTA.

Q: So in China you are model and actress? (Irena has performed commercials of M&M’s and Pizzahut).
Irena: Yeah, and I am doing it at the moment as well. I have dreamed of being an actress when I was young and went to the acting high school. I have been acting since 17.
Q: What shows have you been in?
Irena: I have roles in TV series, commercials, and now I am in an internet ad with EXO (Korean boy band)
Q: Really? Have you taken photos with EXO?
Irena: No we didn’t have photos. Compare to EXO, I like Jaedong better (smile).
Q: Do you come to Korean a lot?
Irena: Yes. I signed with a Korean acting agency and have works to do here. There is a commercial which will be aired soon. Korea is really a good place. I went to esports matches and also like to sit at coffee shops.

Q: You are so pretty, so if you are alone, will there be a lot of men strike a conversation with you?
Irena: There have been several times already. Some strange dudes came talk to me. I just don’t want to talk with them in either Korean or English.
Q: You speak good Korean.
Irena: Not really. My speaking is not good and needs learning. My writing is better. So if there is more things you want to ask in the future, contact me using Kakao talk (smile)
Q: Kim Soo-hyun and Jaedong, who is better looking?
Irena: What (smile)? Jaedong is not those good-looking type, and Jaedong is Jaedong not because of his face. I still ike Jaedong better. Beside Jaedong, I also know other players very well, like Stork. We knew each other when he came to WCG China and had contacts after that. JYP, aLive, and Hyvaa also know me well.

Q: This was planned to be an interview with both you and Jaedong. But he has to focus on practice recently, so he refused. Any words for him?
Irena: He refused interview with me, so I cannot be Jaedong fan anymore (smile). But obviously, Jaedong is one of the best players. I know he values his work to a high degree, so I respect him. I think it’s destiny that Jaedong became a professional player. Players like Jaedong will have a bright future. Jaedong, please accept the interview with me in the future. If you say no again, I will not be your fangirl anymore (smile)!

Then after winning WCS JD should make a step
|
So Jaedong is in practice mode, good to hear .
|
I guess that's how you become the most consistent progamer of all time. Making sacrifices.
|
|
|
Im sure JD has numerous amounts of pretty fangirls, he can't take time out to interview with all of them!
|
She is really pretty in that second-last photo.
I think i've seen her at KDL, also.
|
|
|
She looks really generic though o___O Must have good acting skills!
|
JD is probably thinking he is not worth the hot soup + massage anymore

Generic pretty girls are probably the best for most ads though, unless you are one of those expensive elite brands.

omfg that picture is so good. Washasjdfkasdj xD?!
|
Aaaand that's why Jaedong has won the starleague five times.
|
JD is simply playing hard to get.
It takes more than soup + massage to please him.
|
Hurry up and win WCS, so you can accept her interview lol
|
Sad to hear she rejects others lol
She is such a pretty woman.
|
I would really like to see an interview with her and Jaedong.
I hope she's prepared to get harassed by bat-shit crazy EXO fans for preferring Jaedong to them.

What's said in the media and what happens in real life are 2 very distinct things
|
Hot soup and dong massage

It may be there's just a lot of guys, many of them creeps, going on her, I guess if it was just every now and then she would not bring that up
|
Thanks for the interview. :D

That's unlikely. Once they see Jaedong, I'm sure they will realize she's right. :D
|
Hang out with her at a coffee shop, get a bunch of expresso shots, practice for 48 hours straight to make up for lost time.
EZ
|
You know you're at the top of your "game" when you throw away TV actresses. Practice hard JD :D
|
dong and hot soups makes a good combo
|
JD is already married to SC2, so he simply doesn't care. =)
|
JD has hotter chicks, his standards are kpop girl group level
|

I guess dropping on RO32 in last place was quite unexpected, even to him.
|
Tweet at Jaedong.. talk some sense into him. Hahaha. But then I want him to do good at Starcraft, too. Sigh.
|
most asian girls think guys who randomly talk to them are creeps so Its not just her lol

hmm I dunno. Something about that interview doesn't seem right. I dunno, just the way she was addressing questions. I think Jaedong made the right call lol. Practice hard and worry about that stuff later.
|
Plzzz... JD can do better than that.
|
1) Jaedong rejects this beautiful girl's interview
2) Jaedong hasn't had a girlfriend (that we know of) for a long time
3) Jaedong has stated in interviews that when he plays against someone he imagines him forcing himself on them
4) Most of his opponents are male
Conclusion: Jaedong is practicing really hard. Yeah. That's it.
|
As much as I love Jaedong..... He is an idiot.
EDIT: Oh sorry, didn't realise this thread was 3 weeks old... found it through google.
