Blitzchung issued the following statement to Inven:

As you know there are serious protests in my country now. My call on stream was just another form of participation of the protest that I wish to grab more attention. I put so much effort in that social movement in the past few months, that I sometimes couldn’t focus on preparing my Grandmaster match. I know what my action on stream means. It could cause me lot of trouble, even my personal safety in real life. But I think it’s my duty to say something about the issue.

The official Taiwanese stream has since removed the clip, but this being the internet, it has been preserved and shared online.

October 29 - 4:01 AM EST: The word order of Blitzchung’s name has been corrected.
