Faker今在名古屋「Korea House」舉辦的金牌記者會表示,「能在亞運拿下金牌是非常珍貴的經歷,真的很開心。」不過他連兩屆都未在決賽出場,對此Faker表示,「兩屆我都沒有以先發身分參加決賽,但我不太在意這一點,比起是否先發,我更看重的是自己有機會站上亞運這個舞台,親身經歷這段過程。」
Faker同時大讚隊友表現,「整個團隊都表現得很好,能看到代替我出場的『Zeka』金建佑選手參賽並最終奪冠,對我來說也是一段很有意義的經歷。」
韓媒指出,隨著出場時間減少,近期外界也出現「他的退休時期是不是已經逐漸接近」的猜測,根據韓國內容振興院的電子競技現況調查,職業電競選手的平均退休年齡為26.7歲。
不過30歲的Faker明確表示,現在還不是談退休的時候,「電競仍是一個不斷成長的新興項目,這次在格鬥遊戲《鐵拳》項目奪冠的裴宰旻選手即使已經40多歲,實力仍然維持頂尖不是嗎?實力與年齡並沒有直接關係,重要的是能維持多少熱情,我也認為自己還能繼續征戰更久。」
