It’s been a long time since you played, thoughts on the game? -It felt strange. I guess it’s because it’s been a long time since I’ve won in the individual leagues.
How have you been recently? -I got injured playing football [soccer] and I can’t even walk [laugh] But I’ve mainly been practicing.
You won with a 4-pool in game 1. -I don’t know why but I just really wanted to 4 pool [laugh] It seemed to have worked well. I practiced timings too. In order to let fans see an interesting game, I even canceled a Drone.
You played aggressively in game 2 also. -I couldn’t get lings in at the beginning, but I kept trying until they finally slipped in. My harass affected the opponent a lot.
In the Ro16 you’ll be playing the winner of Kal vs Olympus [amateur]. -To be honest Protoss is easier to play against, but recently I’ve lost to Kal, and he’s ahead in head-to-head. I guess I never focus on him, so the head-to-head difference got bigger. From now, if possible, I’ll try to bridge the gap. This isn’t just for Kal, but for all the players who lead me in head-to-head, I’ll try to catch up to all of them.
WCG can get you the title of Korean Representative. -I think I should maintain a relaxed mentality from beginning to end. Play with the interest of having fun. If you focus too much on winning it all for the representative title, it’s possible you’ll choke at an important juncture. You must have a good attitude. You have to think that if you get eliminated, you can’t help it, but advancing is obviously better.
Last words? -I saw other players in their interviews mentioned football too. Our team wants to assess our football abilities. I don’t recall if we ever played with another team before [laugh]

Hahaha... Kwanroooo. "I just really wanted to 4pool", "I just kept trying [sending lings] until they finally slipped in", and yet: "I think I should maintain a relaxed mentality from beginning to end".

More proof of imbalance. Thats the only reason I somewhat look forward to Sc2, I'm tired of watching T>Z>P>T over and over
Not to offend you, really, but that is such a comment. Just because a match up its "easier to play" doesnt mean its unbalanced. 4ex, in PvT Protoss might be easier to play, but terran army its WAY more stronger than the protoss one. 200 terran with some upgrades vs 200 toss will end up in terran melting the protoss forces with less casualties, thats why protoss always has to find workarounds like to stasis 30+ supply before engaging, and even then it might actually turn in favor of terran, or going carriers.
In other words, because the races are different some may give diferent benefits in diferent matches, it doesnt mean its imbalance. Just because in lower skill level T>Z>P>T doesnt mean that its the reality.
