00:33I felt a little bit of pressure.
00:35To be honest, I was under a lot of pressure.
00:37Actually, my aim was to compete in the World Championship.
00:42At that time, I was No. 2 in the ranking.
00:44I aimed to be No. 1 in that competition.
00:48Now, I have to change my mindset so that I won't feel too much pressure.
00:54So, I will set my goal to win the gold medal first
00:59so that I can maintain my ranking as the world's No. 1 player.
