Hanwha Life Insurance’s determination to win its first championship since joining the LCK franchise and rebranding was also extraordinary. Choi In-kyu, Hanwha Life’s coach who was held back by T1 in the playoff final last spring season, said, “I really want to advance to the final this summer, and I will win the final.” Jungler “Peanut” Han Wang-ho, the center of the team, also said, “If I reach the final, I really want to win the final with a lot of things, including confirming the LOL World Cup.” Midliner “Zeka” Kim Gun-woo also vowed to take revenge on T1, saying, “I lost in the spring, but I will win this time and go to the final.”
T1, the LCK’s most winning team, also picked “V11” as its 11th league championship goal. T1 coach Kim Jung-kyun, who was helplessly defeated by Hanwha Life Insurance in the second round of the playoffs last month, said, “We will try to get the opposite result in this final match when we meet Hanwha Life again.” Midliner ‘Faker’ Lee Sang-hyuk made up his mind, saying, “This time, we have a lot of preparations, and we only have things to show you,” and top liner ‘Zeus’ Choi Woo-je also said, “I think we will be able to advance to the finals if we prepare well as we have done.”
Hanwha Life Insurance and T1, which will face off first in the finals on the 7th, both predicted that they will likely win with a set score of 3-1. In particular, the players of the two teams said that experiencing the Gyeongju Indoor Gymnasium first will also help in the finals. Hanwha Life’s ‘Peanut’ Han Wang-ho said, “If you win the day before the finals, you can maintain your sense of play, so there are many advantages.” and T1 ‘Zeus’ Choi Woo-je said, “Because the regular league and the stadium are different, the advantage of the finals is that you play on the previous day.”
Gen.G, who will face off against the winner of the match in the final the next day, also showed “the ease of waiting.” “Watching the two games, you can prepare any team if it comes up,” coach Kim Jung-soo said, expressing his conviction, “No team in particular thinks that any team will come up.” “We expect the score to be 3-1,” he said, expressing his willingness to win for the fifth consecutive championship.
The representatives of the three teams also did not forget their ambition to make special memories for the fans who come to the Three Kingdoms period Silla’s capital, the stage of the final, and the ‘Thousand Years’ Highland. “I personally like the ‘Muddle’ dish, so I recommend it,” said Gen. G ‘Leices’ Son Si-woo. “Don’t throw away a lot of trash and come to the stadium and make fun memories.” Hanwha Life Insurance’s ‘Peanut’ Han Wang-ho said, “I came to Gyeongju on a school trip, and I hope you come and have fun sightseeing because there are many things to see as well as the game.” and T1’s ‘Faker’ Lee Sang-hyuk said, “We are happy to play in Gyeongju, which has a lot of things to see, and I hope you enjoy the game.”
