Showmaker: "I used to think about retiring quickly before, but this year, I want to win the championship
DK Official YouTube released an interview video titled "DK 2024 Season Determination," here's the translated content:
Q: Please review 2023.
ShowMaker: Expectations were high, and we had the confidence to perform well.
Kellin: Just by exchanging glances, we couldn't achieve our goals, which is regrettable.
Lucid: I think it was a year to prove my own abilities.
Kingen: Many good and some not-so-good things happened, but I think it was a year of learning a lot.
Q: You mentioned a change in your mindset.
ShowMaker: I used to be very self-destructive, often self-blaming. I used to think, "I need to succeed quickly and retire," but those thoughts have disappeared, turning into a mindset of "playing professionally happily and for a long time."
Q: How does it feel to be promoted to the main team?
Lucid: It's like a dream, I always thought, "When can I join the main team?" After really entering the main team, there were many unbelievable moments.
ShowMaker: Initially, I predicted that Lucid would be very nervous. I hoped he could play without nervousness and perform well.
Q: Why did you choose DK?
Kingen: I considered various situations and felt that I could perform at my best in DK. Also, there are many players in DK that I like, so I joined.
Aiming: I heard that ShowMaker decided to stay in DK, so I joined DK.
Q: How do you feel working together?
Aiming: What? (laughs) ShowMaker? He really plays well.
Q: What are your individual goals for this year?
Kellin: To reach the finals stage, that's my goal.
Lucid: I want to achieve the best jungler title.
Kingen: I want to enjoy the games happily and achieve good results. That's the goal for 2024.
ShowMaker: My goal is that by the end of 2024, I want to have the feeling of "I have worked hard and played the games interestingly this year without regrets."
Aiming: During my professional career, the cheers and excitement when winning games are very interesting. So, I want to step onto a higher stage.
Q: What are the team's goals for this year?
Lucid: I want to win the championship in the global finals.
Aiming: I want to spend every day with teammates having fun.
Kingen: The team's goal is to spend 2024 together with a family-like atmosphere.
ShowMaker: Definitely to win. We have been in high positions, but we failed for two consecutive years. I think we need to rise again.
Q: What expectations do you have for your teammates?
Lucid: ShowMaker helps me a lot in training, and he plays well himself. I feel he will perform exceptionally well in matches, so I'm looking forward to it.
Kellin: I'm curious how Aiming and I will perform on the stage.
Kingen: Lucid has a carefree demeanor that doesn't seem like a newcomer.
ShowMaker: As this is Lucid's rookie season, I believe he can show a good side to the fans on the LCK stage. I'm very excited about this.
Aiming: Kellin plays the lane very well, and I'm really looking forward to laning against him.
Q: Anything you want to say to the fans?
Kingen: We will not only achieve good results but also show a positive team image. Please believe in and support us. Thank you.
Aiming: I will show everyone a reliable carry performance and a stable hexagon AD appearance.
Kellin: In 2023, I couldn't show a good side, and it's a mystery to me. In the 2024 Spring Split, I will try to show a good side and prepare hard.
Lucid: Because I'm a rookie, everyone might think it's a learning season, but I want to perform well from the beginning. I will try my best to play well, not inferior to any other jungler.
ShowMaker: I signed a long contract, and this is the first year after signing. I will show a good side and work hard to make everyone feel, "Our DK mid laner is reliable."
