Lee Jeong-hyo, coach of Gwangju FC in the K-League 1 professional soccer team, must have been quite embarrassed when he saw the media reports on the 13th.

It was a time when former national soccer team coach Jurgen Klinsmann was expected to be dismissed.

Gwangju Metropolitan City Mayor Kang Ki-jeong, owner of the Gwangju club, spoke with reporters.

At the tea party, he advocated for the dismissal of former coach Klinsmann and recommended, “It would be good to ask for understanding and send Coach Lee Jeong-hyo as the national team coach.”

The claim that the team owner should directly send the head coach to the national team is a statement that is rarely found even as a joke in the soccer world.

Coach Lee met with reporters ahead of the 'Hana Bank K-League 2024 Opening Media Day' held at the Seoul Grand Ballroom of The Plaza Hotel in Jung-gu, Seoul on the 26th and laughed, saying that he learned of Mayor Kang's remarks through an article.

Coach Lee said, “I wonder how much you didn’t trust the (national team) leader before you would have said something like that.

“I think they praised me for my ability,” he said.

At the same time, he pointed out that ‘philosophy’ is the most important in running the national team.

Coach Lee said, “You have to decide what kind of soccer you are going to play and bring in a manager who fits that.

“I don’t think you bring him in just because he’s famous without considering what kind of soccer he has played or what system he has established,” he said.

After former coach Paulo Bento, who emphasized ‘build-up soccer,’ left the baton for the last time at the 2022 Qatar World Cup.

Questions about the philosophy of the game have not often been raised in Korean soccer, and even as former coach Klinsmann's successor is being selected, only the coach's nationality, whether he accepts a temporary position, and whether he has the charisma to dominate the locker room are emerging as major issues.
