Below you will find an interview prior to the KODE5 Global Final with Chul Wul "Shy" Park.

Hey Shy! How confident are you before KODE5?
My confidence is good! I want to be the champion, I always make up my mind before a tournament that, "I will win everyone at this tournament". This is no different.

You are seeded #6 and SoCCeR who finished behind you in KODE5.Korea is seeded #4. Comments?
KODE5 should explain how they seeded players, I can't understand how they made it, I don't really care if I am high or low seed.

You are with InFi, RotterdaM, ReaVeR & Frozen, a mix of 3 race, what do you think of your group?
Hm, not much I think it's a standard group.

In one interview you said, you are weakest in the "Night Elf vs Human", with InFi in Group, how did you prepare for this match up?
In fact, I don't have any good human players to practice against, so I have just been watching a lot of replays and thinking about the match up and strategy!

You have played in Russia before, what memories you have of Moscow?
Moscow is a beautiful city, I saw a great night view when I was here some years back. Even the people here are very kind.

I heard a story that says that dsn gave you his mousepad, is it lucky?
Yes! It is!

Last! Any word to fans?
I just want to say to fans, that they should support me and believe in me. I have prepared well for this tournament and I want to make a good finish for fnatic!
