In the career that lasted almost all of his professional League of Legends, Faker was famous as a player who always kept his professional and extremely proper attitude for everyone he contacted. From fans to colleagues, rivals or characters in other professions in the professional Esports village (MC, reporter, commentator …). However, recently, Faker had one of the rare times to implicitly “face” the media around the provision of information related to his condition.
Faker was rarely annoyed with the media
Specifically, right after the recent Dplus victory, Faker had shared around his injury. A statement of England is attracting more attention than usual when facing the media: “My arm has not completely recovered but I am controlling. All I want to say is that I need to take care of myself. I don't want the media to know about this. In the end, I just want to say that I am still working hard and showing well. This is the point I want to share.”

In fact, in the future, Faker sometimes encountered some problems with the media when he was “stuffed with words” that made him and T1 suffer a lot. The culmination was the period of DDOS in the spring of 2024. At that time, Faker interviewed after the defeat of Hanwha Life Esports and shared about DDOS accidents that were causing T1 to have some problems. But the translation and reporting factor made him and T1 were criticized by a part of the fans who denied HLE's victory and found a reason for sophistication for defeat.

As a player who has played long enough to know what he needs to do, Faker always holds the most professional and professional attitude possible in everything. However, even so, Faker still has trouble. It is not necessary for him to speak up like that, but it is necessary to avoid himself as well as T1 suffered, especially when all Faker's words will be specially noticed.
