(L to R, Movie Leta Hydra)
CJ Collective Interview, “Movie seems to have gotten old”
Once to have battled with SK Telecom T1 for 1st place, the team that has been doing well CJ Entus when entering the 2nd round fell into a sudden losing streak and entered the lower tier. The CJ players that were suddenly hit by the losing streak did not show lively play in their matches as well.
But, against the match vs ACE, CJ showed solid performances. Against Air Force ACE, they swept them in a clean 3:0 victory, while CJ recovering their w/l ratio above .5 and went up back to 4th place to showing signs of revival. Especially the ‘God of War Line’ reviving again, CJ promised that they would win in their next matches.

Shin Sang Moon - Leta
Q. You finally broke the 4 game losing streak.
Hydra – During this time our team was under pressure, I’m happy we won today. Now we’re going to have to concentrate, and if we do I think we will do well in Round 3.
Movie – I had a strong desire to win today. I think we all played our best to win today. I feel good after our victory.
Leta – It’s been a long time since we can interview like this, to share with feeling with my teammates, I feel happy. Thinking of this as a new beginning, I want to show a better record.
Q. If there was a reason for your (bad) performance.
Hydra – I honestly don’t know. I cannot find a reason. I always practice my hardest, but I’ve even lost games where I had the advantage and the games did not turn out so well. If it was like the past, in an individual league it gives you chances to break your losing streak. Since there is only Proleague at the moment, I’ve only lost three games in a row but having no wins in about two months makes me feel sad.
Movie – Everyone needs to go in a losing streak once. How do you win all the time? It is possible to lose. In this case, I feel like I’ve lost so I can do well in the 3rd Round. I think it’s better to not be too concerned about the losing streak you’re in. I think Hydra is showing a humane viewpoint.
Also, I’m not performing as well as I was in the past. Even around the team, I can feel my performance fall which influences my record. I can’t find a reason, but I feel upset for not doing so well.
Hydra – Maybe because you’re getting old… (laugh). I’m just kidding, I didn’t even think deep about a slump. I don’t think it’s on the level of a slump anyhow.
Q. Watching these two players’ losing streak, your thoughts?
Leta – You have to taste the bitter part of life as well. After we win together, by riding each other’s positive mood I think that creates a synergy effect that helps a team create a momentum. But recently I’ve been faltering so much that I think it cut off our momentum. After today, we will do our best to bring our team into the upper tier of Proleague.
Q. Your hair color change is very shocking.
Movie – I wanted change my hair to an unconventional style. Before Kim Jung Woo (EffOrt) did his hair, I’ve thought about doing this long before. I wanted to do gray color, but my hair did not dry well so I think it turned into a khaki color. Dying my hair, and often hearing callings of ‘grandpa’ continuously, I think the game has gotten old (laugh). Looking at the mirror today, I think my skin is crumpled.
Hydra – A minute ago going to the bathroom, sadly he said “I have wrinkles.”
Q. With a bold perm you’re getting attention.
Leta – I think only I can pull off this style. In the past I’ve wanted to try a baby perm, but it looked scary so I did not try. But my teammates all started changing their hair, so I summoned my courage so I could change.
Hydra – Today I’m planning to do my hair, and I’ve been thinking that if you drastically change your hair, most time you won’t be satisfied with it. So I plan to just keep my regular hair.
Q. It’s been a while since you played Kim Goo Hyun (Kal).
Leta – Since it has been so long playing with Kal, it was fun. I hope to play him in the 3rd Round as well. Kal says he likes me, and I like him too (laugh). I feel happy when I play with Kal (laugh). Also Kal tells me that I resemble his first love, but I think that’s a lie. I think that Kal probably like a cute style.
Q. Any last words.
Hydra – This Proleague season is so competitive. Now we have 7 matches left, I hope we concentrate and play well. I will do my best to help our team reach the Post Season.
Leta – Yesterday it was my mother’s birthday, so I’m happy to give this victory as a present to her. After coming up to Seoul I felt bad not buying her a cake, but I think with today’s win, that it is a good present. This season, I want to show us winning Proleague.
Movie – Recently our team atmosphere was not good and was in a losing streak. But since I’m always positive minded, I think the result will turn out well. Even more than when we placed 1st, I think we are stronger now.
