Lim "BoxeR" Yo Hwan successfully qualified for season 2 of the Global StarCraft League (GSL) so Chosun again caught up with him for an interview.BoxeR explained his feelings upon qualifying for the Ro64:
"I haven't felt like this for a long time, so I'm feeling delighted. I'm happy because I get to see my fans again in the Ro64, only thing left is giving it my all."
Whether the two time OSL champion prepared for the qualifiers:
"It was the qualifiers so I didn't have specific strategies prepared. I just reacted depending on the situation. The opponent's strategy was a late game strategy so I thought bunker rush would work. Also even I failed, it is possible to salvage the bunker so I did what I wanted."
His reasons for choosing Terran as his race again:
"I chose Terran because the fans expected Terran matches from me. However, the game changes a lot with every patch so I might change my race depending on the results of the (future) patches."
