play04:14

play04:18

[Talking gibberish] That means he's not educated properly.

All five of them

play06:06

[T1 extended the contracts with the LOL world championship members] extended their contracts

play06:09

It was a touching moment for the fans

play06:10

That's amazing

play06:11

Can't you move if another team

play06:12

[Other teams must've offered higher salaries] offers you a higher salary?

play06:14

The thing is

play06:16

It's a popular story

play06:17

[Faker rejected a 24.5 billion won offer from China] China offered Faker a 24.5 billion won offer

play06:36

Gumayusi and Keria couple

play06:45

Actually this time!

play06:50

play06:52

[His own charge as MVP]

Should I move?

play06:57

I thought about it

play06:59

but I wanted to stay

play07:01

Still T1

play07:02

I stayed so I was able to come to Knowing Bros

play07:05

If you think about it

play07:06

if just one of the five members didn't extend their contract

play07:08

you guys wouldn't have been on Knowing Bros

play07:10

It would've been the four!

play07:12

[Cool bros]

play07:16

I was very loyal

play07:18

to T1 from before

play07:20

[I never thought of moving] I never thought about moving to a different team

play07:22

if even another team offered me more money and a better deal

play07:31

[The best merit is T1] I think that staying in T1 offers me a merit that's worth so much more

play07:35

But an offer like that didn't come, right?

play07:37

[Paused]

play07:38

No comment on that...

play07:39

I'm not commenting

play07:40

on that

play07:41

It's a no comment

play07:43

In that case

play07:44

[Only Zeus was hesitant about extending the contract] only Zeus looked at other teams

play07:48

This is...

play07:50

It's unfair for you if you're honest

play07:53

[Wooje's realization] - It's okay - That's top

play07:55

That's being professional

play07:57

You don't regret if you make the choice after considering everything

play07:59

Even within the members of the Knowing Bros

play08:01

[From another program] If they offer you more money

play08:03

You have to go try it out

play08:07

[Su Geun and Heechul will move] Su Geun and I will go for sure

play08:09

Even if I don't go film...

play08:11

I have to look at the planning

play09:25

At that time...

play09:27

[T1's performance was bad] We were doing a bit bad

play09:29

At that time

play09:30

Keria ended up playing with a different player

play09:34

How was it?

play09:35

[To compare] You went on a date with a different boyfriend

play09:38

[T1 Bottom duo / He was fighting with Gumayusi] You were always dating and fighting Gumayusi

play09:41

[but dated Ruler at the Asian Games] but you went on a date with a new boyfriend named Ruler

play09:45

How was it?

play09:45

We said that we were doing bad at that time

play09:48

I wasn't really confident in myself

play09:50

so I worked hard to do what the manager and coaches told me to do

play09:54

I don't remember that well

play09:56

I was worried about myself actually

play09:59

He went to a good looking boyfriend

play10:02

That's what it feels like to you

play10:04

[Worried that Keria would change his mind] I was worried that

so I had to accept it

play10:24

[Hoping for the next opportunity!] I'm going to go for the next opportunity

Thank you.

play12:03

Moving on,

play12:04

[There are conditions for joining the club!] there are conditions for joining the club.

play12:06

First of all,

play12:08

wrote down the support of my family.

play12:11

I told you

play12:13

[The only person who gives advice to Faker!] there was only one person on Earth who gives advice to Faker.

play12:16

[That is Faker’s grandmother!] - Grandmother! - Grandmother, not Grand Master

play12:20

My grandmother knows the game so well

play12:23

that she just gave me an advice.

play12:25

Faker got 9 kills with Orianna during the first game.

play12:28

After that, 4 more kills with Zoe in the second game.

play12:30

Sometimes, I don't like it when he flashes forward into the enemy frontline,

play12:34

but if he does enough damage, his teammates can take the kills.

play12:39

[The comment is a total expert in LoL!] Your grandmother uses complete technical terms.

play12:42

Originally, no one in my family knew about games,

play12:45

[Family who paid attention to the game after Faker’s professional debut] but after I debuted as a professional, they continued to show interest,

play12:50

so I'm so grateful!

play12:51

I bet your grandmother knows LoL better than most people, right?

play12:55

Does your grandmother play too?

play12:57

My grandmother didn't play,

play12:59

[Continue to monitor Faker’s matches] but watched the replays on TV

play13:03

and gave full support.

play13:04

She also sent me nice messages

play13:06

on KakaoTalk.

play13:08

The love for grandchildren is right there!

play13:10

[Families who become experts as much as the players] Basically, everyone in the family becomes experts.

play13:13

Are there any pro gamers in your family?

play13:16

Gumayusi’s older brother was

play13:18

[Gumayusi’s older brother is a professional gamer!] a star professional gamer!

play13:21

[Star 2 pro gamer Lee Shin Hyung] His name is Lee Shin Hyung, and he used to be a star pro gamer.

play13:25

And the seven siblings in the family are patriots.

play13:27

[Sixth of seven siblings / Gumayusi] The environment is good. Then, you would have received a lot of help from your brother.

play13:30

Are there 7 siblings?

play13:31

My parents' sons all love games

play13:34

[But the parents were against it at first because they wanted one of them to study] so they wanted one of them to study, so they were a little opposed to it at first,

play13:38

but now they really like it!

play13:40

Do you know the nickname?

play13:41

No, his nickname is "the nation’s brother-in-law".

play13:44

There are two "national brothers-in-law".

play13:46

[National brother-in-law Oner and Gumayusi] Oner and Gumayusi.

play13:49

[Oner’s older sister, cheerleader Moon Hye jin] The Oner's older sister is a famous cheerleader,

play13:52

so even if Oner makes a slight mistake while playing jungle,

play13:55

he says, "Brother-in-law, will skip it this time".

play13:57

Really?

play13:58

Uh!

play14:01

I think she's in volleyball now...

play14:03

Don't you know the details?

play14:05

That’s his real sister! You don’t know your real sister.

play14:07

I knew she was in baseball and basketball,

play14:10

[Real brother and sister moment] but I don't know much about volleyball.

play14:11

Then...

play14:12

I have three older sisters,

play14:14

[Fans who watched the video of the sisters being interviewed] and after seeing my interviews with them,

play14:18

[From then on, they started calling me “brother-in-law”] everyone started calling me brother-in-law...

play14:21

[My older sister draws a webtoon.] My older sister was drawing an Instatoon

play14:25

and he tagged it, and she said she was really grateful.

play14:28

Brother-in-law!

play14:29

[Feeling awkward about the compliment] Thank you.

play14:31

I'm curious

play14:31

[What's your hobby?] about your hobbies...

play14:35

I heard that Keria is a K-POP fanatic?

play14:37

I don't really have any hobbies,

play14:39

so I often watch idols.

play14:41

[Idol effect that refreshes and clears the mind] Also, when I have a headache, I look at idols and my mind becomes refreshed and clear.

play14:45

[Devil / Super Junior]

play14:48

After soaking it.

play14:50

[Drama / aespa]

play14:53

[Pro gamer with award-winning fan service]

play14:54

[How can I love your dancing skills? I love you...]

play14:58

There was an issue this time.

play15:00

After winning the game, “NewJeans, come out!” This is what he did.

play15:03

[After winning the semifinals]

play15:05

NewJeans, come out!

play15:09

[NewJeans performed as the opening stage of the LoL World Championship finals] NewJeans was performing in the LoL World Championship finals,

play15:14

[What he said when he actually got to see NewJeans as he advanced to the finals] and as they advanced from the semifinals to the finals, Keria said, "New Jeans, come out!" It was like that.

play15:18

[Keria, a famous NewJeans fan] New Jeans motivated me so much that I played the game

play15:20

[I definitely want to see NewJeans!] with the intention of seeing NewJeans.

play15:23

When I was practicing, there was a NewJeans Pepero

play15:26

[Practice with snacks with NewJeans pictures next to me] and I played the game with just my face next to it.

play15:28

- No wonder he was good - Have you ever met them in person?

play15:30

They performed on stage during the finals.

play15:32

[LoL World Championship finals opening NewJeans stage]

play15:34

[T1 players appearing] You got autographs before that too.

play15:35

[Keria's wish fulfilled] We had a media day before that and got autographs there.

play15:37

Are you Bunnies?

play15:38

[Received autographs in person during media day]

play15:40

[A sure motivation to win!] So NewJeans also said, "NewJeans come out!" They know this.

play15:44

From what I heard, Oner is really Kyunghoon's fan.

play15:46

[Kyunghoon’s true fan Oner!] From what I've heard, he is really..

play15:48

You also took singing lessons?

play15:50

[Oner who prepared a song for fans] Vocal training.

play15:52

I'm not good at it,

play15:54

[I like Kyunghoon so much that I prepare Buzz's song!] - but I really like Kyunghoon. - What song do you like best?

play15:57

["You Don’t Know Men" sung by the Oner] I like "You Don’t Know Men" the most.

play16:01

Let's take a listen.

play16:02

Let's go!

play16:04

[Original song: Buzz / You Don't Know Men / Oner] Oner is singing.

play16:06

You don't know the jungle!

play16:08

[I’m nervous about singing in front of my bias]

play16:16

I'll understand even if it's late every time

play16:21

You're good.

play16:22

I won’t be the first to ask who you met

play16:28

My stubborn love

play16:31

I'll want to believe what you say even if it's just an excuse

play16:33

I'll want to believe what you say even if it's just an excuse

play16:39

I will rub my eyes wiping tears

play16:44

and make up reasons to meet you next time

play16:50

Though I meet your sigh more than yourself

play16:56

I live to see you

play17:02

Even if we face the odds all the time

play17:04

I will wait for you

play17:07

Although it tears my heart up

play17:10

I will smile

play17:13

Don't leave

play17:16

Don't give it up so quickly

play17:23

See this love, getting deeper

play17:27

although you push me

play17:30

Even when no words being said

play17:32

The world knows

play17:35

but why would you not

play17:37

Why would you not know who can protect you

play17:48

[Kyunghoon coming out?] What? Are the hugging?

play17:50

[He is hugging him warm to share how he feels]

play17:55

[As you guys are in a rival position] The symbol of rival competition is sports

play17:57

[Sport competitions can't be avoided!] - Right - Sport rival competitions are amazing

play18:01

During the season

play18:02

[Recruiting talented people is chaotic] So scouting is really fierce! Something like strategy for scouting?

play18:06

[The living witness of university scouting] There are two living witnesses here

play18:09

So you got asked to get in

play18:10

to the university?

play18:11

I got the offer!

play18:12

In year three of my high school!

play18:14

You mean all universities?

play18:15

I got all but

play18:16

I wasn't thinking about Yonsei university!

play18:18

You didn't accept the offer?

play18:19

Nah

play18:19

[No for Yonsei] To the coach, I was like 'I won't go to Yonsei University

play18:21

Why?

play18:22

I will only aim for Korea University

play18:23

[He saw the uniform of Korea University] They were wearing red training suit with a tiger on

play18:28

[That tiger took his heart] to train and the teeth of the tiger were so cool

play18:31

So I was like, I gotta go to Korea University

play18:32

Then when you were on, did Korea University always win over Yonsei University?

play18:34

I lost in my first year

play18:36

[From the second year, they always won] But not after that

play18:38

I love rival things

play18:40

When I was a university student, there was no popular baseball player in Yonsei University!

play18:43

Because they were busy playing around!

play18:48

[He is talking hard]

play18:51

[Kidding] Popular ones wouldn't come out

play18:53

because they are busy doing a blind meeting

play18:55

or throwing balls at Hongdae doll shop!

play18:59

When I asked them

play19:01

what they were doing on that day

play19:01

they will be like, we are on a blind date with Ewha University!

play19:02

Well go for it

play19:03

[You go on a blind date!] We will play baseball!

play19:06

[What about Janghoon?] - Were you on a blind date? - Before that, you already get scouted by Yonsei University?

play19:10

When did you get scouted?

play19:13

When I was in a high school...

play19:13

For me, it was when I was in a middle school!

play19:15

[He was born that way] When I was in year three of the middle school!

play19:19

[Can check on the news!] There was...

play19:23

You can all see this on the news

play19:25

They saw the potential of me

play19:27

[What about in Korea University?] Then did you get the offer from Korea University as well?

play19:30

Not only Korea University, but also the universities which have Basketball society

play19:33

Even in Ewha Women's University!

play19:38

[Yonsei vs Korea competed until the end] Until the last minute, they tried to scout me

play19:41

because you were amazing!

play19:42

When I went home during my high school life

play19:44

Coach from those universities came to my place

play19:47

to have dinner everyday!

play19:50

Your mom must have felt tired

play19:51

She was tired, but!

play19:54

I made a choice!

play19:55

We talked about this before

play19:57

It's a good story

play19:58

[The reason why he chose Yonsei University?] Why did you choose Yonsei then?

play19:59

To scout me

play20:01

[He was invited to university practice game] They invited me for practice game, to Korea and Yonsei University

play20:05

[Went to Korea University by bus] I went there by bus...

play20:08

It's far, right?

play20:09

Besides that, if I go there!

play20:11

There is nothing

play20:12

It's a university

play20:14

but there is no people!

play20:16

At school?

play20:17

There is no one near the school!

play20:20

It's just field!

play20:22

It's just nothing... it's doomsday like

play20:23

There is nothing

play20:24

I was like, is this actually a university?

play20:26

[and he went to Yonsei University] and I went to Yonsei University]

play20:28

[As soon as he got into Sinchon...] And I went into Sinchon

play20:31

[Is this... how university is?] He must have been mesmerized

play20:36

He is a good dancer!

play20:38

[He was good at those]

play20:41

This is how university should look like!

play20:45

Romance of campus

play20:46

I went into the campus

play20:48

and at that time... I am not sure about now

play20:50

but at that time

play20:51

[There weren't many female students] There weren't many female students

play20:54

The ratio was about 9:1 or 8:1

play20:57

[Right] Especially the department of Engineering

play20:58

In Yonsei

play20:59

But still in Korea

play21:01

[Yonsei had a big ratio of female students] Yonsei University has a largest ratio of female students, almost 5:5

play21:04

And I went there

play21:06

[Eyes wide opened]

play21:08

[In to the New World]

play21:12

[View is so beautiful...]

play21:15

What the

play21:16

You would be the legend of dribble there!
