The protagonist is Coach Kim Jung-chul, who won a silver medal at the 2000 Sydney Olympics.

Coach Kim Jung-chul began his career as a coach abroad when he was dispatched to Sri Lanka in February 2022 to participate in the Korea Sports Council’s sports development support project for developing countries.

Coach Kim Jung-chul, who was also a gold medalist at the 2002 Busan Asian Games,

moved to the Thailand national team in May of this year.

National Team

Coach Kim Jung-chul, who met after the game, acknowledged the difference in skill,

saying, “Malaysia is a strong team, and our players lack experience as the older players are 25 years old and the younger players are 16 and 17 years old.”

Coach Kim Jung-chul, who has been in charge of the national team for about three months,

said, “In Sri Lanka, I was able to communicate with the players in English to some extent,

but in Thailand, that part is a bit difficult.

I am learning Thai, but I am still a beginner, so communication is a bit difficult. “I can’t do it,” he said.

Coach Kim, who retired from the national team after playing in the 2004 Athens Olympics and appeared in the Asian Games for the first time in 21 years since the 2002 Busan Games,

said, “I played in Malaysia as a player, and there is no special food,

Bae Young-wook, the coach of the women’s national team, has been with us for over 10 years, but I am just starting out,” he said with a laugh.

He answered that his goal for this tournament was “the quarterfinals.”

In Asia, Korea, Malaysia, India, Japan, China, and Pakistan have better power than other countries, so it is realistic to compete for the next place in the ‘big six’.

Coach Kim explained, “If you look at the rankings, even if you exclude the top 6 teams,

countries like Bangladesh and Oman are stronger than us,” and added,

“It would have been nice if we had scored a goal against Malaysia today,

but we have a goal of being in the top 8 in the remaining games.”

“I will work hard with the players,” he said.
