[Asian Games] Cho Young-wook’s Last Moment as Representative of Each Age Group… The National Anthem Rang from the Highest Point
Representatives by age group for 10 years alone... “I’m happy to repay Director Hwang Seon-hong for his trust in me.”
Cho Young-wook's (Gimcheon) career as a national soccer team member for 10 years is coming to an end.
Cho Young-wook, who played 85 games as a representative of his age group,'s last competition was the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games.
Cho Young-wook scored a valuable goal in the 11th minute of the second half of the men's soccer final against Japan at the Huanglong Sports Center Stadium in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, China, to complete a 2-1 comeback win on the 7th.
Hwang Seon-hong, who maintained this score, achieved the milestone of winning three consecutive Korean men's soccer titles. 카지노사이트
Cho Young-wook, who stood out as the main character in the last competition and last game of the national team for his age group, said he would never forget this moment.
Cho Young-wook, who met with reporters in the joint reporting area after the game, said, "I think today's game will be the most memorable (as an age group representative)," and "I was heartbroken."
Cho Young-wook said, "My heart is full when I hear the national anthem before the game, and the national anthem is sung when our team's players are standing at the highest point (on the podium).
As a player, I feel that good, and my heart has never been so full."
Cho Young-wook has been representing his age group for 10 years, starting with the U-14 national team at the Nanjing Asian Youth Games in August 2013.
Cho Young-wook, who represented the U-20 and U-23 national teams, took the opportunity to play for the age-group representative despite being 24 years old as the Asian Games were postponed for a year.
Now, there is no age group representative in front of Cho Young-wook.
Only national team A, competing across all age groups, remains.
Jo Young- wook said, "I feel good because I finished really well. Coach Hwang Sun-hong put a lot of trust in me, and I'm glad to be able to repay him in the end."
Cho Young-wook showed strong faith in Coach Hwang, who was with him in the last competition representing his age group.
He said, “The thing I heard the most before the game against Japan was ‘Don’t doubt.’
Many people told us that if we do what we do, we will definitely win.
I and my teammates also believed that and were able to not be anxious about our abilities."he said.
Regarding the situation in which a goal was conceded just 2 minutes after the start of the game, "I didn't think at all that we were in big trouble. I thought we could win if we played a little more calmly," he said.
"Everyone was of the same mind.
What should I do for the team?" “I thought more about what I was doing,” I looked back.
'Corporal' Cho Young-wook, who enlisted in the K-League 2 Gimcheon Sangmu this year for military service, will be discharged early due to military service benefits from winning a gold medal.
Cho Young-wook, who showed a raised hand salute after scoring a comeback goal, gave another raised hand salute as he received the gold medal around his neck at the awards ceremony.
Jo Young- wook said calmly, "He did not report discharge, so he is still a soldier.
I think he did what he had to do."
There is one way for Cho Young-wook to join the age group national team.
Coach Hwang will again form the under-23 national team and prepare for the 2024 U-23 Asian Cup and Paris Olympics.
Here, he just needs to be selected as a 'wild card'.
When asked, ‘If Director Hwang asked me to go to Paris, France, would I go?’
Cho Young-wook burst out laughing.
Jo Young-wook said, "I really, really don't think that will happen..." but added, "I would really appreciate the opportunity to do so while wearing the Taegeuk symbol."
