Even though the team atmosphere hasn't been great lately, DN FREECS' coach Jung Min-sung showed a calm but determined will ahead of the match against FearX. He stated that they have been building teamwork amidst roster changes and preparing strategies to counter the opponent's strength in team fights. Unlike his stern expression, his answers revealed a strong will to overcome the difficult situation and achieve victory.

In the beginning of the interview, coach Jung Min-sung mentioned the team's roster changes and explained that the team is currently in the adaptation process. He said, "Within our roster, we are now in the process of adapting and building teamwork with each other," suggesting that they are focusing on improving teamwork with the new player composition. He also analyzed the performance of the opposing team, FearX, and added, "Since the opponent is a team with good fighting ability, we have been preparing by devising ban picks and strategies to match that," emphasizing that they have prepared customized strategies based on thorough analysis.

Regarding the background of re-employing Lee '풍연' Jong-hyuk as the mid-laner, he expressed his expectations for his role in complementing the team's shortcomings, as well as the positive performance he showed in the previous game. Coach Jung Min-sung explained, "'풍연' is being used because he is showing aspects of complementing our team's shortcomings. There were disappointing sets in the game, but there were also sets where he showed good performance. We want to give '풍연' a little more chance."

He cited the outstanding AD carry '디아블' and the recently in-form jungler '랩터' as FearX's key players. Coach Jung Min-sung said that 디아블 and 랩터 are the key points of the opposing team, saying, "We are thinking of keeping them in check while playing the game because they are players who show excellent combat ability." On the other hand, he pointed to '풍연' and '버서커', the dealer lines, as DNF's key players, predicting that their performance would be an important key to victory.

When asked if he had experienced such a difficult time in his coaching career, he replied, "There weren't that many. There were times when it was difficult in the beginning..." Regarding efforts to change the team atmosphere, he said, "Our players and I have the same mindset. We think we can beat any team. I think that if we don't lose heart, don't lose confidence, and do our best, we will eventually get one win, and after that, we can ride the atmosphere and continue to win and continue to win."

Admitting that the actual performance in the game does not meet expectations compared to the scrim results, he said, "If we compare it to the scrim, we are not really losing all the time. So I think there are definitely some parts that are not coming out as well as the scrim," emphasizing that their full strength has not yet been revealed.
