One of the most honest interviews I've ever read.





The strong, rising player who resurrected KT's protoss line - Violet!
"The wins I've earned was won together with the the strength of all my teammates"

[image loading]


Fomos is working on making the 30 questions/30 answers interview more efficient by shortening it to 20 questions/20 answers. Season 2 of the 30/30 - 20/20 started with (Z)ZerO as its first candidate and is currently working to create new questions. Also, players who have already done 30/30 will get a fresh start to be interviewed again by 20/20.

Last 20/20’s star was Airforce Ace’s (P)DaezanG who chose KT’s newly rising player (P)Violet who has been showing a shocking number of great performances lately. With this 20/20, let’s look into the motive behind (P)Violet’s actions and how he lives lately.

1. Recently the number of fans cheering for you has increased – do you feel this / how do you feel when you hear the fans cheering for you?
▲ I still don’t really feel it that much but I’ve noticed that in the team gallery / community sites, there are a lot more comments left pertaining to me. As the number of members in my fan café increases, I’m beginning to feel it more keke. When I hear the fans shout out cheers together, I get a lot of strength out of that, and the louder the cheers get the more I feel like I can concentrate in my game hehe. One time I was so ecstatic I felt like my heart would burst.

2. With this season, the team has become a lot younger – what do you think are the pros of reforming the structure of the team?
▲ Besides (Z)ZergBong hyung, most of the other hyungs have left the team. Under the shade of the hyungs, I feel like we grew up relying on them like plants in a greenhouse, but now that the hyungs aren’t here, my sense of responsibility has grown, and I think the team has matured in a way. So although it’s sad that the hyungs aren’t here anymore, I think of it as an opportunity to grow more as a player.

3. Recently, what has changed the most as you’ve become the team’s main protoss player?
▲ I haven’t really considered myself the team’s main protoss player. Though I do play in the actual matches, in terms of preparation, the team and I do it together, and because I believe my wins were only possible with the help my teammates gave me, I don’t really think anything has changed that much ^^;;

4. You’re part of the KT MagicN’s – what special feature do you think KT has that other teams don’t?
▲ Jung KE Buhk KE (t/n:

To to reilliterate 정ㅋ벅ㅋ (Jung KE Buhk KE) is a meme in Korea used on the internet which spawned from the day ever since ForGG owned both Flash and JD 3:1 and 3:0. At first it was a way to forever shut Flash/JD fans down because of their annoying fanbase but now is used whenever ForGG wins (regardless of how the game goes) or when netizens are raiding another internet forum.



5. Besides gaming, what is something you really want to do right now and why?
▲ I want to go on vacation in a foreign country. Since I was born I’ve never been on vacation overseas. I would be able to see those breathtaking landscapes I’ve only seen through pictures and images… I think it would be a really great experience hehe. I’ve been thinking about going during the off season and if the opportunity arises, I would love to go wherever!

[image loading]


6. It’s known that you have an impressive amount of practice time – how do you usually practice?
▲ In the past I would play over 20 games with just one player and just play by hand for each game but it didn’t seem like an efficient way to practice so lately when I start practice, I only play about 5 games with an individual player. In the morning I play about 3-4 players and 15-20 games, in the afternoon I also play around 15-20 games, and in the evening I play around 10-15 games.

7. Who do you personally believe is the best progamer right now and why?
▲ Currently I believe the best player is (P)Bisu. As I watch his VOD’s, I’m learning quite a lot. During practice I think to myself, “in this situation, what would Bisu do?” and there are many times when I think of a solution. I also believe his understanding of the races is different from others. I especially think the way he perceives the zerg race is different from most players. Though I can imitate his play similarly, I can’t perfectly play like him yet. Often, it seems like the protoss I’m playing with and the protoss (P)Bisu plays with are two completely different races, and so I feel even more so that he is a great player.

8. What do you think a team’s ace player must possess and be prepared for?
▲ Besides skill, I believe an ace player must be a model to his teammates, to other team players, and other concerned people in general. Because teammates will definitely be looking up to the ace player, I believe besides skill his actions and lifestyle must not be in disorder. Also, because the ace player is a representative of the team itself, I think misbehavior from that player will also negatively influence the team’s image itself.

9. (P)DaezanG’s question for you: Currently you are on a winning streak – what is the secret to your rise in performance?
▲ Well firstly, I’ve always wanted to be chosen for 20 questions 20 answers so I want to say thank you very much to (P)DaezanG ^^. I’ve received this question many times, but honestly I don’t really know myself. I personally believe fate was very much on my side. As I gained win by win, I also slowly gained confidence and playing in games became more comfortable.
In the past when I only lost, I thought it was because I wasn’t skilled enough. I thought stage fright was just an excuse and that it was just things people told me to comfort me. As I kept practicing with those thoughts, though I still lack a lot, I believe I’ve taken this recent good fortune as an opportunity to show my skills.

10. Next player to choose/a question you want to ask
▲ To Hite Sparkyz (P)Horang2: Your strategic play is really amazing. I’m curious about when you mainly think up those strategies; when your play is blocked how do you manage and do you ever think, “what do I do if my play is blocked”; what kind of mindset do you have as you use these strategic plays?

11. Do you have a girlfriend? If you don’t, when’s the last time you dated a girl?
▲ Currently, I don’t have one. The last time I had a girlfriend, I was so young and perhaps it’s because we didn’t even meet that much but I can hardly say that it was dating. The person I liked most was a girlfriend I dated when I was in the 8th grade.

12. Is there a player you really respect or hold as a role model?
▲ I initially wrote down my answer to number 7 but I didn’t think it was the most suitable answer for this question so I changed it hehe. I would pick (P)Reach hyung who is currently enlisted in Airforce Ace. I’ve learned a lot and seen a lot of exemplary play from him, and also as a progamer his past and his general image was very impressive, and I believe his current image is very impressive and cool as well.

13. Is there an interesting/funny event that occurred in your team house???
▲ This is something that happened while I was on the B team. It was around 4 am while I was sleeping when I heard something strange and woke up. Once I was fully conscious, I noticed (P)Stats was next to me seemingly memorizing strange texts. It was something like “the sire has arrived the sire has arrived”. Coincidentally my dongsengs were awake at the same time so I asked them to try and talk to (P)Stats and suddenly like in the drama “M”, (P)Stats voice changed to a really thick and deep tone as he responded. I was so scared that I waited quietly until he fell asleep and then I made my other dongsengs come next to me and set up a shield while I left (P)Stats alone in a corner. We’ve been calling him “sleepwalker stats”, “sleeptalking stats” ever since. Now that I’ve written this all down it doesn’t seem very funny. Heuk heuk (crying noises).

14. What is your ideal type of girl?
▲ It’s different by the case so I don’t have a set type of girl… would there really be something I can be picky about?? If they just like me I would be extremely thankful T___T I like a clean hairstyle like a ponytail – I think that’s the prettiest. I also think a girl with creamy skin and a pretty neckline is very attractive. (t/n: -____- haha)

15. As a progamer, is there a goal you definitely want to achieve?
▲ I think this is a common goal for all progamers. A victory in both individual leagues and in the proleague. Just like Flash-Bisu-Jaedong, I want to have that ‘absolute invincible force’ that they just radiate at least once, and in general I want to be able to achieve the goals I said earlier so that I can be someone who will be remembered in eSPORTS history.

16. Is there a jinx you personally have?
▲ I personally create and get rid of a lot of jinxes for myself. For example, I would think to myself “last time I wore white socks so if I wear a different pair this time I feel like I’ll lose; therefore, I should wear the same pair of socks” and create a jinx for myself. And then one day the laundry didn’t dry in time…. T__T I was forced to wear a different pair of socks but I ended up winning the match that day. After that incident I thought “jinxes are useless” so lately I haven’t really been doing it.

17. Recently you overcame your personal slump and are currently displaying great results – is there a player we should be looking forward to/anticipating in your team?
▲ Among my teammates, there’s no one who has lost as much as I have and then at once turned around.. T__T I believe players the fans should look forward to are (T)Barracks (a terran player) and the left handed zerg player (Z)HoeJJa. (T)Barracks has incredibly fast hands. (he is able to start producing from 10 barracks within 1 second – I think to myself, ‘producing from all gates in 1 second’ and think that’s extremely difficult.. T__T) If his FPVOD was shown I believe people would be shocked. When watching him play, he’s so fast to the point that viewers would probably get dizzy so I believe if he just polishes up a bit he will do very well, and as you guys have probably seen, (Z)HoeJJa’s late game concentration is impressive and he does a lot of clever plays. Though recently he's been in a slump, I believe he will be able to play better soon and if you all just continue to cheer him on more, I believe he will be able to show impressive play like when he defeated Bisu once again!

18. While being a progamer, what was the hardest period of time you went through and how did you get through it?
▲ Though it’s not true anymore, before the 4th round, whenever I had a proleague match it was very difficult for me. Because the individual leagues were just individual matches, I didn’t care as much but with proleague matches, the hardest part was the fact that my teammates and the people around me didn’t believe in me. “The player you throw away” or “the player you give as a gift to the other team” – one time I even heard that I was the player that people thought, “let’s just give up this match and move on”. Though I knew it was inevitable since I didn’t have enough skills at the time, it wasn’t just anyone but my teammates that said these things, and the fact that people so close to me were saying things like this gave me a huge scar. Whenever that happened, I thought to myself that I would practice even harder and make sure they would regret having said such things, and I worked doubly hard afterwards.

19. What do you think is your biggest strength?
▲ In terms of inside the game, I believe my greatest ability is my clean and precise hands; outside the game, because I have a personality where I easily become self-satisfied, whenever that happens I immediately think “I must remember the time when I was but a tadpole” and “I shouldn’t be like this” and cut off that vanity. I think in those terms, my mind control is my greatest strength.

20. During your 9 game winning streak, which match was most memorable?
▲ Though all of those games were memorable, I think the match with (P)Bisu stands out the most in my memory. He’s a very accomplished player, and because he was a player I learned so much from and wanted to surpass the most, I believe my desire to win was the greatest. Though I made a lot of mistakes, starting with my build the match flowed the way I anticipated, and with the plays that I thought up I won the game and because I felt like it was a huge help to the team’s victory that day, I was extremely happy.

Original Korean Interview:
+ Show Spoiler +

포 모스의 30문30답이 질문 숫자를 줄인 20문20답으로 더욱 알차게 업그레이드 되기 위해 노력 중입니다. 30문30답의 시즌2 성격인 20문20답은 김명운 선수를 필두로 시작됐으며 앞서 더욱 새로운 질문을 만들기 위해 노력할 것 입니다. 또한 20문20답은 전에 30문30답을 했던 선수들에게도 다시 기회가 돌아갈 예정입니다(편집자註)

지난 20문20답의 주인공인 공군 박대만이 지목한 선수는 최근 놀라운 경기력을 선보이며 신흥 프로토스 강자로 떠오르고 있는 KT의 우정호다. 이번 20문20답을 통해 최근 우정호의 활약의 원동력과 최근 생활에 대해 들어보자.

1. 최근 팬이 많이 늘어났는데 체감하고 있는지/팬들의 응원 소리를 들을 때의 느낌은
▲ 아직은 크게 느끼지는 못하지만 팀 갤러리나 커뮤니티에 저와 관련된 글들이 많아지고? 팬 카페 회원수가 조금씩 늘어나는걸 보면서 느끼고 있어요.ㅋㅋ 팬들의 함성소리를 듣게 되면 일단 굉장히 힘이 많이 나고 응원 소리가 크면 클 수록 경기에 집중이 잘 되는 것 같기도 해요 ㅎㅎ 한번은 심장이 터질듯한 희열을 느낀 적도 있어요.

2. 이번 시즌에 들어서며 팀이 많이 젊어졌는데 팀 체제가 개편되고 나서 생긴 장점이 있다면
▲ 재덕이형을 제외한 많은 형들이 팀에서 나가셨어요. 형들이 있을 때는 항상 형들의 그늘아래서 자라는 온실 속 화초 같은 느낌으로 의지하기만 한 것 같은데 형들이 안 계시니까 책임감도 커지고 뭔가 좀 더 어른스럽게 변한 것 같아요. 그래서 형들이 없는 것은 참 아쉽지만 제가 조금 더 성장할 수 있는 계기가 되지 않았나 하고 생각해요.

3. 최근 팀의 주축 프로토스가 되면서 가장 크게 달라진 점은
▲ 전 아직 제가 저희 팀 프로토스 라인의 주축이라는 생각은 안 해봤어요. 경기는 제가 하지만 준비는 항상 팀원들과 함께 하고 있고 제가 경기에서 승리할 수 있는 것은 팀원들이 도와준 덕분이라고 생각하기 때문에 크게 달라진 점은 없는 것 같네요. ^^;;

4. KT 매직앤스 소속인데 다른 팀이 아닌 KT만이 가진 특징이 있다면
▲ 정ㅋ벅ㅋ

5. 지금 현재 게임 말고 가장 해보고 싶은 것과 그 이유
▲ 외국으로 여행 가고 싶어요. 태어나서 한번도 외국으로 여행을 가본적이 없어요. 사진이나 영상으로만 보던 멋진 풍경들을 실제로 볼 수도 있고…. 정말 좋은 경험이 될 것 같아요. ㅎㅎ 비 시즌 기간에 가볼까 생각만 하고 있는 상태인데 기회가 된다면 어디든지 꼭 가보고 싶네요!

6. 평소 연습량이 대단한 것으로 알고 있는데 보통 연습은 어떤 식으로 진행하는지
▲ 전에는 한 사람하고만 20게임 넘게 하고 주먹구구식으로 무작정 게임만 했는데 효율적이지 못한 것 같아서 요즘은 연습을 시작하면 한 선수와 5게임씩 해요 오전에는 3~4명이랑 15~20게임 오후에도 15~20게임 저녁에는 10~15게임 정도 한답니다

7. 본인이 생각하는 최고의 프로게이머는/ 그 이유
▲ 현재 최고라고 생각하는 선수는 김택용 선수에요. 경기 VOD를 보고 정말 많이 배우고 있어요. 연습할 때 '이럴 때 김택용 선수는 어떻게 했을까?' 하고 생각하다가 깨달은 것도 많고요. 종족에 대한 이해도도 남다른 것 같아요. 특히 저그전은 정말 남다르신 것 같아요. 비슷하게 흉내는 낼 수 있지만 아직 완벽하게 따라 하지는 못하겠어요. 가끔은 제가 하는 프로토스와 김택용 선수의 프로토스가 다른 종족 같기도 하고 그래서 더 대단하게 느껴지는 것 같아요.

8. 본인이 생각하기에 한 팀의 에이스가 갖추어야 할 점은 뭐라고 생각하나
▲ 에이스는 실력 외에도 다른 팀원이나 타 팀 선수들, 관계자 분들에게 모범이 되어야 한다고 생각해요. 팀원들은 당연히 팀의 에이스를 보고 배울 태니 실력 외에도 행동이나 생활태도 같은 것들이 흐트러지면 안 되는 것 같아요. 또 에이스는 팀을 대표하는 선수이기 때문에 그 선수의 좋지 못한 행동은 팀의 이미지에도 영향을 끼친다고 생각해요.

9. 자신을 지목한 박대만의 질문/최근 연승 행진을 기록하는 등 좋은 경기력을 보여주고 있는데 경기력 상승의 비결이 무엇인지?
▲ 일단 제가 20문 20답을 굉장히 하고 싶어 했는데 찍어주셔서 정말 감사 드려요 ^^ 이 질문을 굉장히 많이 받았는데 솔직히 저도 잘 모르겠어요. 제 생각에는 운이 많이 따라줬던 것 같아요. 그러면서 1승씩 쌓이다 보니까 자신감도 조금씩 붙고 경기하는 것도 편해진 것 같아요.
예전에 계속 패배만 하던 시절에는 그냥 제 실력이 부족해서 졌다고 생각했어요. 방송울렁증 이런 것은 핑계고 주위에서 위로하려고 해주셨던 말들이라고 생각했어요. 그렇게 생각하고 계속 연습하다 보니까 아직 많이 부족하지만 저에게 찾아온 행운을 기회로 만들어서 잡을 수 있는 실력은 된 것 같아요.

10. 다음 선수 지목/물어보고 싶은 질문
▲ 하이트 스파키즈의 이경민 선수 / 전략적인 플레이가 정말 대단하신 것 같아요 그런 전략들은 주로 언제 떠오르시는지 또 막혔을 때의 운영이나 '막히면 어쩌지' 하는 생각들은 안 나시는지 전략적인 플레이를 하실 때의 마음가짐 같은 것 이 궁금하네요

11. 여자 친구는 있는지/없다면 마지막으로 여자친구를 사귄 적은 언제?
▲ 지금은 없어요. / 마지막으로 여자 친구가 있었던 때가 너무 어렸을 때였는데 자주 만나지 않아서 그런지 사귀었다고 하기도 좀 그렇네요. 가장 많이 좋아했던 친구는 중 3때 사귀었던 친구에요.

12. 평소 존경하거나 롤 모델로 삼고 있는 선수가 있다면
▲ 원래 7번에 답을 썼었는데 이 질문에 더 적합한 것 같아서 바꿨어요 ㅎㅎ 지금 공군에이스 소속으로 활동하고 계시는 정석이형 이에요. 제가 많이 배우고 본 받을만한 모습을 많이 보여주시고 또 프로게이머로서의 과거에도 모습도 멋있었고 지금도 멋있다고 생각 하기 때문이에요.

13. 숙소 생활 중 재미있었던 에피소드는???
▲ 2군 숙소에서 생활할 때 일이에요. 새벽 4시쯤에 자고 있는데 이상한 소리가 들려서 깼어요. 정신차려 보니까 대엽이가 옆에서 이상한 주문 같은 것을 외우고 있더라고요. '영님이 오셨다 영님이 오셨다' 뭐 이런 거였어요 마침 다른 동생들도 깨어있어서 말을 걸어보라고 시켰더니 갑자기 드라마 'M' 처럼 대엽이 목소리가 굵고 낮은 톤으로 변하면서 대답을 하는 거에요 너무 무서워서 대엽이가 다시 잠들 때까지 조용히 있다가 다른 동생들을 제 옆으로 오게 해서 쉴드를 치고 대엽이는 구석에 격리시켜서 잤던 일이 있었어요. 그 다음날부터 ‘몽유대엽’, ‘잠꼬대엽’ 이런 식으로 불러주고 있답니다. 막상 쓰고 나니까 별로 재미는 없네요. 흑흑

14. 이상형이 어떻게 되는지?
▲ 그때그때 너무 달라서 이상형 같은 것 은 없고 .. 제가 따질게 뭐 있겠습니까 그저 잘 좋아해 주신다면 감사 ㅠㅠ 굽신굽신 헤어스타일은 포니테일을 좋아해요 제일 예쁜 거 같아요. 또 살이 뽀얗고 목선이 예쁜 여자분들이 매력적인 것 같아요.

15. 프로게이머로써 꼭 이루고자 하는 목표가 있는지
▲ 모든 프로게이머들의 공통적인 목표 같아요. 양대 개인리그 우승과 프로리그 우승. 이영호-김택용-이제동 선수처럼 ‘절대 무적 포스’를 내뿜는 시기를 한번쯤 가져보고 싶기도 하고 전체적으로는 앞서 말한 목표들을 이루어내서 e스포츠 역사에 기억될 수 있는 선수가 되고 싶어요.

16. 자신만의 징크스가 있다면?
▲ 저는 저 스스로 징크스를 많이 만들고 자주 없애는 편 이에요. 예를 들면 '저번 경기 때 흰색양말을 신었는데 이번 경기에 다른 양말을 신으면 질 것 같으니 똑같은 양말 신어야지' 라는 징크스를 만든 적이 있어요. 그러다가 하루는 빨래가 마르지 않아서 ㅜㅜ 다른 양말을 신고 갈 수 밖에 없었는데 그날 경기에서 이겼어요. 그때 '역시 징크스는 쓸모 없는 거야' 라고 생각하게 돼서 요즘에는 잘 만들지 않는 답니다.

17. 최근 본인도 부진을 극복하고 대단한 성장을 이루어냈는데 팀원 중에서도 기대해 볼만한 선수가 있는지
▲ 팀원 중에 저만큼 많이 지다가 한번에 이긴 사람이 없네요.. ㅠㅠ 팬 분들께서 기대하셔도 좋을 것 같은 선수는 황병영 이라는 테란 선수와 왼손잡이 저그 고강민이에요. 병영이는 손이 굉장히 빨라서(배럭 10개에서 생산을 1초 만에 하더라고요 제 마인드가 '모든 게이트를 1초 만에' 인데 정말 어려운데 .. ㅜㅜ) 개인화면이 방송되면 많이 놀라실 것 같아요 게임 하는 모습을 보면 어지러울 정도로 빨라서 좀 더 다듬으면 정말 잘할 것 같고 강민이 같은 경우는 방송에서 보신 것처럼 후반에도 집중력이 대단하고 센스 있는 플레이를 굉장히 많이 해요. 요즘에는 침체기지만 금방 다시 잘할 수 있을 거 라고 생각하고 팬 여러분들이 조금만 더 응원해주시면 김택용 선수를 잡을 때처럼 멋진 플레이를 더 빨리 보여줄 것 같아요!

18. 프로게이머를 하면서 가장 힘들었던 시기와 그 시기를 어떻게 이겨냈는지 궁금하다.
▲ 지금은 아니지만 4라운드 전까지 프로리그 경기가 있을 때마다 항상 힘들었던 거 같아요. 개인리그는 개인적인 대회니까 상관 없었는데 프로리그 경기가 있을 때 마다 팀원들이나 주변 사람들이 절 믿어주지 않는 게 가장 힘들었어요. ‘버리는 카드’나 ‘대주는 카드’ 등 일단 한 경기 버리고 시작한다는 말도 들은 적이 있었어요. 내가 실력이 부족해서 계속 지니까 어쩔 수 없다고 생각하긴 했지만 다른 사람들도 아니고 팀원이나 가까운 사람들이 그런 말을 하니까 굉장히 많이 상처받았어요. 그럴 때 마다 더 열심히 해서 나중에 저런 말 했던 것들을 후회하게 만들어 줘야겠다 하고 생각하면서 더 열심히 했어요.

19. 자신이 가진 가장 큰 장점은 무엇이라고 생각하나
▲ 게임 내적으로는 손놀림이 깔끔하고 정확한 게 제일 큰 장점 같고 게임 외적으로는 제가 쉽게 자만하는 성격인데 그럴 때마다 금방 ‘개구리 올챙이적 시절 생각 못한다’, ‘이러면 안 된다’고 딱 끊어버리곤 해요. 저런 부분에서의 마인드컨트롤을 잘하는 게 장점 같아요.

20. 9연승을 하는 동안 가장 기억에 남는 경기는
▲ 모든 경기가 다 기억에 남지만 아무래도 김택용 선수를 이겼던 경기가 제일 기억에 남아요. 모든 사람들이 인정하는 프로게이머고 나 스스로도 가장 많이 배우고 또 가장 뛰어넘고 싶은 선수여서 승리에 대한 열망이 굉장히 컸어요. 중간에 실수도 많았지만 빌드부터 시작해서 제가 생각했던 시나리오대로 경기가 흘러가고 제가 생각했던 플레이가 성공하면서 경기에서 승리하고 팀이 승리하는 데에 크게 도움이 된 거 같아서 정말 기뻤어요.

Lol - WWBD? (What would Bisu do?)

His answer to 18 was heartbreaking to read... I'm so glad Violet is doing so well lately though and proved those teammates wrong, whoever they were.

Fighting Violet!!!

Amazing interview.
His answers are much more complete than they usually are with the others progamers.
I'm really starting to like this kid.

To #18

I never thought that little of Violet. Obviously I never thought he would be this good. I just never saw him as a bad player. Although I did once think he would stay in Tempest's shadow (not that big of a shadow though...) for a while as KTF's top Protoss...

To #14, it's a prophecy

Edit: Thanks for the translation Smix!!

My love to protoss players is genuine, but gets even stronger when the guy is so honest in his answers. Keep the good stuff coming, Violet !

on a side note, another bisu fanboy within the toss ranks :D I wonder if JangBi is like the only guy who is not impressed by him

Thanks for the translation. This set of questions/answers was very good.

WWBD cracks me up too.
Of course, you only live one life, and you make all your mistakes, and learn what not to do, and that’s the end of you.

To to reilliterate 정ㅋ벅ㅋ (Jung KE Buhk KE) is a meme in Korea used on the internet which spawned from the day ever since ForGG owned both Flash and JD 3:1 and 3:0. At first it was a way to forever shut Flash/JD fans down because of their annoying fanbase but now is used whenever ForGG wins (regardless of how the game goes) or when netizens are raiding another internet forum.

oh right thanks smix!

Violet Fighting!
Man I hate protoss... but I love good players like Violet and Bisu... hoping for more good games from Violet =P

Of course he will never be at BackHo lvl of awesome, but maybe he will go side by side with the Dragons.

Thx for the translation and waiting for the Horang2 interview!

I remember when they switched from 30/30 to 20/20 or whatever it was that they said they could go back and repeat interviews with people.
