Interview with Lee SeDol 9P.
- This is 4th time to win. How do you feel now?
I remember well about 2009 which was not good memory for me. I hope this win last good memory for me, I am happy.
- You are great in fast games.
I agree with it. I feel better in fast games, especially when my opponent and me both ran out of times.
- Do you choose something?
Honestly, I had some thournament which I focus better when I was young. But now I am changed, I am doing my best in all tournament.
- How much do you study?
When I was young, I always was thinking about Baduk in my head. But now, I feel more flexible in Baduk. I am focusing on having more experiences than only studying.
- You might feel difficult to confront new variation?
I agree, and I start the game behind often. But I do my best to solve it and this would help me. And the gap with new variation is not very much.
- One more death match?
I think there is no good opponent. Age, reputation, record etc, I think only Guli 9P is one who is matchable for me.
- What is your plan?
Not to lose the meaning of death match, I will try my best to keep it up in the future. I hope to win in the world tournament before 40 year old.
