-Your win in set one set the stage for your team's victory
▲Our team had a good feeling about today, so initially, I wasn't worried at all. However, as the game started, I worried a little and that led to a mistake in my control, but I still won. I didn't feel that pressured though because our lineup is strong. Even if I lost, we would probably have still won.
-Your corsairs played a big role.
▲It felt really good to kill those overlords. I was more successful than I ever was during my practice sessions. I think that my opponent lost more overlords than he should have because he was nervous, but I was still sad when my corsairs died to his mutalisk and scourge.
-You started out with a 2gate zealot rush build.
▲I was going to play based on what happened; if they were successful, then I was just going to play off that. However, it turned out even better than I expected. He was probably much more nervous than I was and it showed in his play. I think that even without my skill, I won with luck.
-You've been on the lineup in every match of the season.
▲Although I wasn't in the first match, I have been in every other one. I admit that I'm not as good as Bisu and my match results haven't been that good lately. However, the coaching staff has been putting their faith in my skills and have been sending me out often. Instead of feeling burdened, I feel that I should earn this honor. You won't get sent out if you make little mistakes, but since they keep sending me out, I am working even harder to make sure that I deserve their trust.
-Your team will play against KT in a few days.
▲Normally, either the game results aren't so good or we grapple with one another, but I think both will be good, it will be a big match. Although I don't know if I will come out on the lineup or not, since our opponents are #1 at the moment, I really want to face them and I will practice for our games.
-What do you do lately with your time?
▲I only practice. I sleep at 3 and wake up at 9. Our entire team lives like that so if I go to sleep early by myself, it would be a little awkward (laughs).
-Do you have any last words?

I saw that 815 hyung won just now.

-How do you feel about winning set 2?
▲When I was getting ready, there was something uncomfortable about it, but the result was good. Although it wasn't like this when I was preparing for Jaedong, for some reason, it was very uncomfortable today. I'm not sure why.
-You just dominated Jaedong and Effort.
▲I've always been confident in my ZvZ, but with the improvements in my mutalisk control, I am doing even better. I feel like I never lose if it gets to an air battle. As my televised play shows the same results as my practice play, I feel that I can play with more resolution.
-Is there a reason that your mutalisk control improved so much?
▲I just practiced a lot. Although it feels that I might have realized something, I'm not sure what the underlying cause is. All of a sudden, I gained confidence and I've been doing well after that.
-The term t1 zerg has pretty much disappeared
▲That kind of talk always comes out, but I don't like it at all. Instead of t1 zergs, I've been hearing talk about zergs on other teams. Since the stress from hearing all this kind of talk is really burdensome, I really hope to get rid of the name t1 zerg.
-Your next match is against KT, how will you prepare?
▲Although I don't know if I will be sent or not, I think that it's better if the games start earlier. That's why it feels like a shame that there's such a long time before our series.
-Who would you like to face on KT?
▲There isn't any specific player that I want to go up against. Rather than concentrating on who my opponent is, I concentrate on how the game is played out. I feel that if I practice hard, it will turn out well.
-Do you have any last words?
▲I wanted to thank n.die_soo for helping me get ready for this match.

-You finished off your team's sweep of CJ
▲It's a relief that I was able to finish it off cleanly and I'm happy about winning all these victory marks. I feel that my game was a fitting end to the series and I will work towards the same result for next time.
-You chose a strategical build.
▲Last time, in the MBC Heros game, I saw a similar build being used and tried it out in practice. Sometimes, it was good and sometimes it wasn't. The result was always a micromanagement battle and since my control was good, I was able to win. My opponent must have not seen my proxy 2 gateways, since he was very slow about adding his second gate. Although I had some errors in my micromanagement, my gateways warped in faster and my zealot count was higher, so it didn't matter that much.
-It seems that we are seeing you use strategical builds a lot lately.
▲I am pretty busy lately, so I don't have the time to practice a macromanagement-based game (laughs). I'm just kidding, it's just something that I tried out. I felt that I shouldn't just play an resource-based game, but I should try this and that. I tried these builds out and it seems that they worked out pretty well.
-What was your win percentage while practicing for these games?
▲At first, I won almost all the time, but as my opponents got used to it and prepared successful countermeasures, I got a bit worried about whether or not I should use this build.
-What do you think about lately?
▲We don't have games for about a week now. Although I don't know why, it's a bit of a shame. Since the IEF is just an event, I won't prepare that much for it. I will just go in with my basics and I guess I'll prepare a little bit for that WCG-like thing.
-Are you confident for the IEF?
▲Last time, I just went in without any previous thought, but it was still okay (laughs). Rather than arrogance, it's just that I have faith in my fundamentals, so even without any preparation, I'm sure that I can deal with it. This is because there is a gap in the skill level between me and the chinese players. If I lose like this, I guess it will be due to chance but my confidence level is about the same as the level of skill difference (laughs).
-Do you have any thoughts about the competition for total wins?
▲It's okay if I don't get put in the lineup now. There are many chances for victory; even if I am sent out, it's not a guaranteed win anyway (laughs). I don't think that the competition for total wins is that important anyway.
-It seems that your hair gets into the way of your eyesight, do you have any thoughts about changing your hairstyle?
▲If I change my hairstyle, won't I have to change its length? Although I want to try out a bunch of difference styles, since I'm not receiving the treatment that a movie star or television star gets, nor do I have a coordinator, so I think it's unnecessary. I guess it would be touching up a plain face, so I'm a little interested, but I don't want to put it into practice.
-Do you have any last words?
▲During my practice for the strategy-based play I used today, two players worked hard in helping me. I wanted to say thanks to them and that I will buy them something delicious. I will buy them whatever they want to eat. It's pretty sure I know what they want so I guess it should be okay (laughs).

At one o'clock on the 28th, at the Loox hero center. Bisu was the 3rd set in a five set match. He faced Jangyoonchul(cj) and finished the set. He racked up 4 wins.
Your team won with all wins:
Bisu: I'm glad I could finish it. I like how I added to SKT's wins. I'm glad I could continue the 2:0. I'll continue to show this strength in the next match.
You choose a (Julryak) strategic build:
Bisu: I watched this game during the MBC game. I tried it out, but it worked sometimes and didn't work other times. It was a matter of micro, but I didn't do so well. It still played out ok. I'm not sure if my opponent didn't see my second gate or he was just slow. Victory was due to my numerous zealots that outnumbered his.
You're using many strategic builds (Julryak juk in) lately:
Bisu: I don't have time to practice for Macro games because I'm busy. (Laughs) I just kid, but I just want to try out the strategic build this time. It worked out well.
How was your record with this build in practice:
The first couple times it was easy, but as my practice partner started to adapt, I lost, and I wondered if this was a viable build.
What occupies your mind lately:
Bisu: We don't even get to play once a week anymore. I'm excited about the event at IEF, and I'll trust my basic skills. I might practice for that WCG.
Are you confident about IEF:
Bisu: The last time I went, I didn't give it a thought, but it went well. It wasn't only confidence, but my basic skill that pulled me through. I feel like the last IEF came at a good time. There's a gap between the Chinese players and myself. It's nothing to worry about and as long as the gap exists I need not worry. (Laughs)
Do you want to go without a loss?
Bisu: I'm not even sure if I want to goto IEF. There's many tournaments, and it's not like I'm guaranteed to win. (Laughs) I don't think every match is that important.
Your hair seems to be getting in your eyes, do you consider changing your style?
Bisu: If I change my hair, won't I have to change my path? I can play a lot of styles so a haircut might be pushing it. It's complicated and I do think about my hair, but it's too much work to make a new image, I'm interested, but not worrying about it currently.
Your last words?
Bisu: Due to my strategic play, two pros at the house gave me some grief. I want to thank them, and I promise to buy them some great food. Want they want is limited, so I think it'll be ok. (Laughs)
