-a general review of the game
▶I played the first game of the fourth round at home, and the players did well with their organizational skills as much as they prepared. It made Seoul lethargic, and what's regrettable is that he can't aim at the goalkeeper when he has a chance to score, so he goes straight to the goalkeeper, but this part has to be continuously supplemented. I will prepare well to win my first home victory against Ulsan in the next game.
-How's Luan doing?
▶ As you can see, Luan links the ball in the middle and guards the ball well. It works well with Andersson. I hope Korean players will also take more advantage of Luan's good performance. You need to make better use of your passing ability. I think it will continue to get better because I just joined, and I think positively.
-How did you prepare for the Seoul match?
▶It is true that Seoul has many good players in all positions. Since we were not a strong team (even though we finished fifth), we emphasized that we should do it ourselves, not struggle or who will do it for us. We prepared well in that area because we are dealing with a team, not an individual. The competition situation, organizational power, and aggression came out well, but the results didn't come out. Soccer is a part that needs to be scored, but this part needs to be supplemented.
-The central defensive line has changed, and it seems to be operating stably around Lee Ji-sol.
▶ Lee Ji-sol did not participate in many games last year due to injury, but he trained well in winter and I know his ability well. There is something I believed that I would do well if I was in good condition. Is Lee Hyun-yong a U-22 year old resource??I'm taking advantage of it. Last year, Kang Sang-yoon used a lot of players, but this year, he is using Lee Hyun-yong well because there is no player to use it with all his might. The two centre-backs combinations seem to be good.
-Lee Hyun-yong is a center back who uses his left foot well, but what do you think of left and right center back breathing.
▶ Lee Hyun-yong and Lee Ji-sol position both left and right without any problems. During the winter, I was very active and my performance improved a lot.
-Suwon came up after the first round as a slow-starter last year, but is it preparing well as planned this year.
▶Last year, he won the first game, but there was a lackluster part in the beginning, but this year, the atmosphere was somewhat sagging as he did not follow the results (first win). He gave me confidence ahead of this game. I said 'We're confident. If our team does it together, I'm confident. Because foreign players are adapting well, they can go to high places the moment they adapt' he/she built up the confidence of the players. I think the role of seniors such as captain Lee Yong, Yoon Bit-garam, and Ji Dong-won was big.
-What level of combination with foreign players would be satisfactory?
▶There is no satisfaction. You have to bring results. In the rest of the game, we will bring results so that the team can develop.
-Today, the number of variable seats in the home stadium increased from 600 seats to 1,000 seats. Did you feel the changed cheering at the stadium. Please say something to the supporters as well.
▶Many fans came even in the cold weather. It gave me strength. It also played a significant role in variable seats. However, before the game, he looked at the Seoul fans and said, `Why did you give so many away seats to the manager. Can't I just give you 500 seats?' he asked. Still, there was a variable seat installed to match it, which helped a lot.
