Interview with forU

[s]interview[/s]

forU, the Korean Protoss who lost to his teammate and kinsman midas[gm] in the quarterfinals in World Cyber Games 2004, has been interviewed.

Some say it was bad luck, that forU faced his fellow Korean friend midas[gm] so soon in the playoffs, and that the three Koreans midas[gm], Xellos and forU should be in the Top 3. But these things happen all the time, great players happen to face each other in every tournament, so this is nothing wrong.

First trip abroad, felt good that his teammates were with him

The 23 year old progamer Lee Jae Hoon, also known as forU, hadn't been outside of Korea until World Cyber Games 2004, which was very interesting and exciting. "I didn’t feel as uncomfortable as I thought I would," forU tells TeamLiquid. He didn't feel so uncomfortable because there were many asians around in San Fransisco. Especially his teammates, who made him feel very relaxed during the tournament.

Don't know much about non-koreans

forU says further down in the interview that he is not so keen on the non-korean community and players, but he practices with PJ on occasion, and has seen replays of Mondragon, and he was impressed by another German as well - Fisheye.

Apart from World Cyber Games, they talk about his progaming career, family and other interests. The interview is very good, and apart from many Korean interviews, this translator has done a great job.
