Full statement below translated by Ashley Kang:

"Dear T1 players,

I wholeheartedly congratulate your first World Championship in seven years, your fourth World Championship.

In Hangzhou Asian Games, for which esports was elected as an official sport for the first time, South Korea won four medals. In continuation of this success, [T1] has won Worlds and once again made South Korea renowned as the frontrunning country in esports.

Lee Sang-hyeok, Choi Woo-je, Moon Hyeon-jun, Lee Min-hyeong, Ryu Min-seok. The scenes of the five players united as a team brought great joy and moved the South Korean citizens as well as people across the globe.

The South Korean government will offer adamant support so the South Korea video game industry can be globally competitive and be a frontrunner in the industry internationally.

Once again, I congratulate T1 players for this championship.

2023 November 20th, President of South Korea, Yoon Suk Yeol"
