[DRX Diary 4 - DRX Deft]
I'm DEFT of DRX.
Last week left me with a deep memory and was a week that made me both happy and sad personally. First of all, happiness is because DRX beat DK to win 6 consecutive wins. In fact, when I first decided to return to the team again, I thought that if I played in the current lineup, I could enter the top few, and if I played well, I could even point fingers at the championship, and it was with this idea that I decided to return to DRX again. Although there were upheavals and crises at the beginning of the game, it felt as if they were gradually regaining their places, so I felt in a good mood. Maybe because of that, we lost to HLE and lost a winning streak, which made me feel a little sad. Overall, this week has made me feel like we have a long way to go and should work harder.
Also, I celebrated my 9th anniversary, and I was very surprised to go to the scene to collect gifts, especially the alpaca seats. I am very grateful to the fans for their gifts, and to the many players and team-related staff who shot the congratulations videos to congratulate me on the 9th anniversary of my debut, but when I watched these videos, I also looked back on my precious time in the past 9 years. So from this point of view, let me write this diary today while recalling every moment of gratitude in the past 9 years.
To describe my 9 years in one word is "happiness". With the help of everyone, I began a happy professional life, and now I continue to live happily. Of course, I still have to say that my family is indispensable to this. When I first said that I wanted to become a professional player, while getting my parents' permission, they also gave me a lot of support, and my brother also gave me a lot of help in the process, so I was able to live a happy professional life all the time.
During this period of professional activities, there were many people who helped me, and the first thing that came to my mind was EDG's coach Aaron (now the general manager of EDG esports club). I need to make a certain degree of change when I go to EDG, so the person who has helped change my style of play the most is Coach Aaron. It is also thanks to everyone's blessing that I have also shown a good activity in the LPL. In addition, the people around me, my friends, and all the teams I have experienced have helped me a lot, and it is because of them that I have forged the current DRX Deft.
In the not short 9 years, there are many moments that have impressed me. One of them is that I had never been in an awards ceremony before joining the LPL. And after I decided to leave EDG to return to LCK, I experienced the final awards ceremony for the first time, when the fans called me by name. At the moment when many fans shouted out my name in unison, as a professional player, I was able to feel the support from so many people, which made me feel very deeply.
Thanks to the love he received in such a happy professional career, from a certain moment on, as an ordinary person, Kim Hyk-kuei could not find any other word to describe it except the word "player Deft". Until a few years ago, Kim Hyk-kuei and Deft lived with the idea of two different lives, and each set different goals and advanced forward. But ever since realizing that Deft and I are inseparable beings, I'm trying to live towards the same goal.
And the goal is to show everyone what drx Deft is like as usual.
