Q: What was it like meeting and playing with Jjonak, someone who apparently considers you a role model and Inspiration?
RJH: I actually knew Jjonak thought of me as his role model before the season started- and it was really great to just play with him and go against him even though he's in a different team, it was just great seeing someone as talented as Jjonak considers me as a role model.
Jehong to Jjonak: Jjonak, you're playing well, so just keep playing well- so lets see for how we do with Winston as well.”
Q: When switching from support to main tank, what gameplay aspect did you find the most difficult?
RJH: There's nothing that's too difficult from changing from Support to tank.
Q: So what's a good thing about this change?
RJH: One of the good things about being a MT, is that I can actually initiate and do more stuff in the frontline.
Q: What is your favourite thing to do outside the OWL?
RJH: Other than playing games, I just sleep in.
Q: What's your maximum sleeping time?
RJH: I can't sleep for more than 10 hours
Q: Your best tips to Quickscope Ana?
RJH: I think this the case for anything with games, just putting the practice time. Just practicing with Ana is the best way to improve your quickscoping skills.
Q: What separates good support players from GREAT support players?
RJH: You have to be mentally ready for anything- you have to have a strong mentality - makes or breaks being a great support player.
Q: As you have a long history in Overwatch eSport, What is your favourite memory?
RJH: The most memorable thing I remember was when I participating in APEX S2 when we got the winning 1st place title match.
Q: What advice would you give to improve my Zenyatta?
RJH: Think about each gameplay- I'm not sure which direction you wanna improve your play- in a general sense,think about certain situations about how you can help your teammates or help the game as Zen.
Q: What’s your favourite American Food so far?
RJH: Popeyes - I love the chicken and the burgers are really great to- so Popeyes would be my go to place.
Q: What tips do you have for an Ana v Brigitte Matchup?
RJH: Honestly? If its 1on1- there's no tips because Brigitte is going to win.
Q: What is a key aspect of leadership and how do you utilize it to lead your team?
RJH: There's a lot of ways where a good leader can lead their team- but for me the most important thing as a leader is being friendly- it’s is your connection and friendship with your teammates. That’s one of the things that I truly focus on to get close to my teammates to listen to their concerns and everything and I use that to be a good leader for Seoul Dynasty.
Q: What do you miss most about being away from home for so long?
RJH: I miss home the most whenever I think about my parents, it’s been quite a time since I haven’t met them - and they’re still in Korea. So whenever I think of my parents, I want to go home.
Q: Why did you choose to use your real name as your player handle when most pro players choose an alias?
RJH: In eSports/everywhere else online others make up a nickname use an alias for their IGN but I wanted to use my real name so I could be known to people. I just wanted everyone to know that it’s me.
Q: What sensitivity do you play on and do you rec higher or lower sens for performance?
RJH: My sensitivity is set so I'm comfy to play games with it...As for overwatch, I recommend a higher sensitivity. As for me, I play on a lower sensitivity because I’m used to playing on it. If I move to a higher sensitivity, I feel my accuracy isn’t as good.
Q: Do you listen to K-Pop? If so, who is your favourite group(s)?
RJH: I actually really like Black Pink - Playing with Fire
(Clip of this question - Danny tries to get Jehong to sing along)
Q: Who do you think the funniest player on your team or in the Overwatch League is?
RJH: Gido
Q: Why?
RJH: I’d have to go with him - there are certain reasons why I can’t say why now- but he’s the funniest person in the Overwatch League
Q: Who was the hero you played/mained initially? - how has that changed as time has passed?
RJH: So when Overwatch first started, I actually went with McCree. I had to change my main- instead of DPS I had to go with a tank hero, I went with Zarya.
Q: What is your worst character to play and what's your favourite?
RJH: My worst character to play has to be Genji. But my favourite character to play is… Genji. I feel like I like Genji because he can do a lot of stuff- and because he’s a ninja, he can climb and do a lot of stuff.
Q: Does it mean a lot to you to be in the leadership for your team?
RJH: I feel like leadership does have a lot of meaning to me- I like taking care of people- even in my play style, even for my teammates- I like playing games to gear towards my teammates needs and fulfilling that role.
Q: What sort of Fashion DO you Like?
RJH: I'm not into fashion, or clothes in general- so.... I would have to choose our team jersey and sweatpants.
Last Words from Jehong: “Thank you for all our fans who kept supporting us- and even for today’s gameplay (against SFS), we didn’t have the ultimate result, but I just want to say we’re really trying our best so please keep supporting us and loving us and thank you so much for tuning in.”
