Britain's Jordi Boot Boyz reported on the 5th (Korea time) 'Newcastle United prospect Park Seung-soo was selected as one of the most prominent players on the Asian pre-season tour'
Jordi Bootboys said 'Park Seung-soo's performance would have provided relief to Newcastle fans who have had a tough time over the past few weeks. It's hard to judge by preseason games. It is important not to expect too much because it is completely different from the English Premier League (EPL) game. Nevertheless, it is certain that Park impressed during the first few games at Newcastle in this summer's transfer window.

Park Seung-soo, who joined Newcastle this summer, was born in March 2007 and was one of the top prospects in the K-League. He signed a semi-professional contract with Suwon at the age of 16, the youngest in K-League history, and wrote various records such as the youngest debut in K-League history, the youngest score, and the youngest assist. Several European teams paid attention to Park Seung-soo's performance this summer, and several suggestions poured in. The team that caught Park's heart was Newcastle. He also succeeded in advancing to the EPL, which was his dream.
Park Seung-soo, who received the opportunity on the Korean tour, did not hesitate. Despite playing for a short time, he actively showed off his long-term dribble and revitalized Newcastle's attack. Fans also watched Park Seung-soo's performance and responded that it was the biggest achievement this pre-season.

Daily Mail reporter Craig Hope, who is familiar with Newcastle news, said on his personal YouTube, `According to conversations with people inside the club, there is now a possibility that Park will be left in the team after the pre-season to take a closer look at him.'
If Park Seung-soo adapts and gets a chance to move between Team B and the first team in Newcastle instead of on loan, he can even try to break the record of being the youngest Korean player in the EPL. Currently, the youngest record is held by Kim Ji-soo, who made his EPL debut in the Brentford first team at the age of 20 years and 4 days. Since Park Seung-soo is still 18 years old, it may be possible to break the record depending on his future growth. With Son Heung-min leaving the EPL, attention is being paid to whether the young talent who will succeed him will be able to appear immediately, and whether Park Seung-soo will be the main character.
