EPT(Note: As you can see, this interview is nearly 2 years old, but I saw a request for this in the
Iris 20Q&A thread. :-))![[image loading]](http://www.fomos.kr/board/issue/1177900962_1.jpg)
In the midst of a Protoss Revolutionist and a 17-year old boy, there is...
As
Bisu, the RevolutionstPlease introduce yourself in a few words.
▲ Hello, I'm Kim Taek Young, a progamer belonging to the MBC Game Hero's team. I'm very thankful to Fomos for choosing me as the first player to be interviewed in the 30 Q&A series.^^
- How did you become a programer?
▲ I moved to Seoul when I was in my first year of Middle School. It was around that time that I first got to see the game broadcast on TV, and when I saw the games, I thought, "Ah! I want to stand on that stage just once, too!" It seems I became a programer because I worked really hard after that.^^
- Expect for your teammates, what player are you especially close to, and how did that happen?
▲ I'm really close to free from Woongjin Stars. I don't really remember how exactly I got to know him, but I think I must have been introduced to him by someone during my amateur days.
- What was the most memorable game for you? (A game you can't forget or that you'd like to play again).
▲ I still find my debut match against Pantech's
Stay most memorable. Because I was just a rookie then and it was my first broadcast match, I was really nervous. I think that because I was bestowed with a win on my debut game, it will remain in my memory even longer.- Who do you think of as your rival, and why?
▲ There's not anyone I think of as my rival. I just face every match with the attitude of a rookie.
- Are there any jinxes you've faced?
▲ Since it hasn't been long since I debuted as a progamer, I haven't had to struggle with that yet. And I work hard not to have to in the future.
- What are your goals as a progamer?
▲ When I first became a progamer, my goal was to win a Starleague. Now, my new goal is to become the best.

- Are there any special habits you have while playing games?
▲ Um, I have no special habits ^^;;
- What are your playing style's strengths?
▲ Seeing as how I'm a Protoss player, I think my ability to amass large resources is my strongest point.
- Who is your most memorable fan?
▲ I can't just choose one special fan. I love all my fans who always come to the games and support me.^^ (note: slut)
- When you see netizens who slander you online, in what ways do you react or cope?
▲ I think that I must get better. I think that the people who point out my mistakes also do me a favor and I'm trying hard to accept their criticism.
- What do you think about your nicknames such as 'The Revolutionist' and 'Prettyboytoss'?
▲ Of course I like them~ I used to feel bad about not having any nicknames, so I'd like it if even more were invented.
- Out of your fellow players, who bothers you the most and who do you get along with best?
▲ Nobody especially bothers me. As for people I get along with, I harmonize well with the players I room with.
- If you hadn't become a progamer, what would you be doing now?
▲ Since my parents would like me study, I'd probably be trying hard to advance my studies.
- In 10 year's time, what do you think you'll be doing?
▲ Won't I probably work at a company or, if I succeed as a progamer, work in a game-related field?
- Is there anything you repeatedly find yourself saying unconsciously?
▲ I sometimes unknowingly use expletives during games.^^;; I'm trying hard to fix that.

- What do you do in your free time?
▲ Instead of going out, I watch TV or sleep at home. When I've had enough of that, I use the internet. Mainly, I go on mini homepages and e-Sports communities and watch the news.
- What is your most cherished personal item, and why?
▲ I really like talking on the phone. So my cell phone, which I can make phone calls with from anywhere, is my most cherished possession.
- Who is your ideal girl among celebrities, and why?
▲ Kim Tae Hee is exactly my type. When I see her on TV, it's like rays of light are shining out of her face.^^
(Note: Kim Tae Hee is a very famous actress that is known not for her acting skills, but her beautiful face. Since this interview is so boring, let's look at some pics of Kim Tae Hee!)

- What do you do before going to bed and right after getting up?
▲ I listen to music before I go to sleep. And when I get up in the mornings, I first look at my watch and then start the day.
- When you get a call you don't want to take, what do you do?
▲ I push the reject button.
- What is your current desktop picture?
▲ Miss Son Ga In from the Brown-Eyed Girls, I think she's really beautiful.^^
- When you go out, what items do you always take with you?
▲ My cell phone, my wallet and lip balm. I need lip balm because my lips dry out quickly. (note: he actually literally says 'lip gloss' here. O.o B-but I think (hope!) that's not what he meant...)

- When did you first fall in love?
▲ It was in my 2nd year of Middle School (literally: I fell sick with the first-love fever). I guess it was rather early.
- What part of your appearance are you most confident and which the least?
▲ Personally, I like my eyes best. Even when I look at myself, I think they're pretty.^^ On the other hand, there are many spots and marks on my body, so I'm worried about that.
- What are moments when you like to think, "I've matured a lot!" or, "I'm still immature"?
▲ When I think about how I don't read manga or watch anime, I think that it seems I've grown up, but when I reveal my true face joking with my team mates, I realize that I'm still young.
- What do you like to watch on TV?
▲ The program 'Muhan Dojeon' (note: a program on MBC -- thanks to MrHoon for correcting ) or MTV, Usj'atsa (note: some kind of gag program, thanks again to MrHoon -- I don't know anything about Korean TV shows, orz), gag concerts, and thing like that. I like programs where you can just relax and laugh. It's the best way to relieve stress!
- What are some personality aspects you really like or dislike about yourself?
▲ I'm not happy with how gentle (note: there was '?' here in the Korean original, I guess he was trying to express something more along the lines of 'whimpy') and self-possessed with other people. I'd like to have a more outgoing personality that can appeal more strongly to others. But I like about myself how I see things through to the end without wavering and work hard.
- A word to your fans.
▲ Last season, both me and my team managed to bring in good results, and I will continue to work hard for as long as the spirit remains. I thank all my fans who've been supporting me and hope for your continued interest in this season as well.
- Choose the next player to be featured on 30Q&A and ask a question.
▲ free, how did you get so good at PvZ?
Note: There's a few other interviews form this series I'd like to translate, most notably
ToSsGirL, firebathero and sAviOr's. Any requests?Thanks for reading!
