(2)Public opinion toward Coach Hwang Sun-hong was not good ahead of this tournament The warm-up match against China in June was crucial Key players such as Eom Won-sang, Ko Young-joon and Cho Young-wook collapsed one after another due to China’s rough play Nevertheless, the fans were angry when the coach did not complain loudly to the referee When the reporter pointed it out, he replied with a sigh Why wouldn’t you be mad at me I’ve never had a good result because I was so excited
(3)During this tournament, he was careful about every word he said When questions were asked at the official press conference, he wrote them carefully during the interpretation and said only refined words After the great victory against Kuwait, he said, “We have to forget quickly and focus on the next game.” “Even though we have a great victory every day, we can’t win every game big,” he said, wary of being disturbed.”
(4)It wasn’t just in the media. According to team officials, Hwang emphasized only what he had to say at the team meeting during this tournament The advice of Kim Pan-gon, chairman of the national team’s national team’s selection committee, at the time of his appointment may have influenced this. Kim said, “Frankly, our leaders are not inferior to foreign coaches,” adding, “If there is a difference, foreign leaders respect players in equal positions, but our leaders treat players as juniors.” Hwang respected players who already had enough experience on the professional stage as players representing the country rather than treating them as younger juniors in their early 20s When the A national team roster was announced on the 2nd, it also drew attention to congratulating the players before training

(6)Coincidentally, Dejan’s shooting, which had a conflict with Hwang Sun-hong at FC Seoul right before the tournament, drew a lot of attention Dejan criticized Hwang for his good football ideas but his ability to manage the team was zero Hwang was famous for his thorough management of the team when he was the head coach of the K League in the past I emphasized principles and made no exceptions I once asked if I’m catching too many players He said, “I know it’s painful from the players’ point of view, but if it’s over that point, there’s a victory. I wanted to let the players know the joy of growth,” but he said, “I reflect on what I thought only from my point of view.”
(7)Perhaps because of his repeated experiences of failure, he seemed used to reflecting and fixing When he was the head coach of Busan, he relaxed his coercive coaching style in Pohang and after a feud with foreign veteran players in Seoul, similar noise decreased
(8)I got a call from Coach Hwang ahead of this tournament Coach Hwang asked and confirmed several things to the reporter who covered the Jakarta-Palembang Asian Games five years ago when he had time next week Most of the information that the reporter knows is public, so there’s nothing special about it, but now I’m ready to do anything for the gold medal
(9)I wrote down every single word that it’s done
(10)It’s not easy to accept criticism, reflect, and fix when you’re older
(11)a successful silver medal
(12)And I think you prepared a lot for the episode
