IN GEE CHUN: Was quite like getting softer, so was play much easier than like during the practice round. Because I was tough to make stop on the green, like when I played like Tuesday and Wednesday, so that's how many players got a good scores.

Q. You took a long time off. What did you do?
IN GEE CHUN: So first four weeks my doctor said I need to take time off, so I totally didn't touch my golf club. So my focus was trying to have a good rest, so I didn't do anything, just took medicine then got some good rest.
After that, I slowly trying to like have like feeling back, so I went to the studio in gym, so I did a lot of workout with the trainers, with trainers.
Q. Did you paint? Did you read? What did you do during that time you were resting?
IN GEE CHUN: I thought very at the beginning I thought if I go to art studio, if I do some like painting, maybe it has like chance to get pressure on my shoulder too, so I don't do any paint first four weeks, during first four weeks.
After I had a good break, then I started to like paint again with my like art teacher, and I just had a really good time with my art teacher because she's really nice person.
So when I like talk with her, like I can see more like the world without the golf. It's the always have a good time with her, so it's more like healing time for me.
Q. When you came back to golf, did you feel refreshed?
IN GEE CHUN: Absolutely.
Q. Did you like golf again when you tee'd off?
IN GEE CHUN: We always want to have good round, so when you had like big break then come back, then absolutely I have more pressure, but at the same time feel much more refreshed.
So I think I can enjoy to play golf more now.

IN GEE CHUN: Honest, like last two months I feel I was not that long, so, wow, I spend like two months in Korea already? I have that feeling now.
But anyway, when like I had like -- I had break, very beginning, to be honest, I feel little sad because of the injury because I couldn't play golf.
But I couldn't do anything, so I trying to be like positive side, and then just think like, okay, In Gee, have a good like time with friends and family. It's really good time to do it, so I did.
