Hong Myung-bo's European fans entered the country together.
On the afternoon of the 17th, Incheon International Airport Terminal 2 was crowded. On this day, a large number of European players joining the national soccer team led by head coach Hong Myung-bo entered the country. Lee Jae-sung (Minutes) made the first start. Lee Jae-sung, who flew from Frankfurt, arrived in Incheon around 4 p.m. Many fans welcomed Lee Jae-sung.
White rice was around 5:40 p.m. Son Heung-min (Tottenham), Hwang Hee-chan (Wolverhampton), Baek Seung-ho (Birmingham City), Yang Min-hyuk (QPR), Bae Joon-ho (Stoke City), and Um Ji-sung (Swansea City) all came in at the same time. The day before, they returned home on Korean Air flight 908 departing from Heathrow Airport in the UK. It was unusual for so many European factions to come in at the same time. More than 500 fans flocked to welcome them.
Son Heung-min, who came out first, came in waving and greeting his fans. A fan gave me a big smile when he received the gift. Hwang Hee-chan also signed autographs to fans one by one and provided fan service. Fans also congratulated Baek Seung-ho, whose birthday is on the day of his arrival. Yang Min-hyuk, Bae Jun-ho, and Um Ji-sung also entered the country with a welcome from fans.
The players headed straight to the national team accommodation. The national team, led by head coach Hong Myung-bo, will play against Oman at Goyang Stadium on the 20th in the Asian qualifying round for the 2026 World Cup in North Korea and the U.S.
