I hope that the generations that gave joy to the people through the World Cup can bring joy once again as leaders. I should take the lead first, and the 2002 generation should take responsibility and find ways to please soccer fans." 안전놀이터
Meanwhile, South Gyeongsang Province coach Lee Eul-yong said he would focus on winning the match first. "It may be an issue, but I try not to pay much attention. South Gyeongsang Province's performance last season was not good enough, so the team's rebound is the top priority. It's nice to meet my teammates at the 2002 World Cup, but the world of victory is cool. I only think about playing well."
