A telephone interview with Gwangju striker Park Jung-in (25) was held on the way to Yaoqing International Airport in Shandong Province, China, for the eighth round of the Asian Champions League Elite (ACLE) in 2024-2025 season, the first game of the new year in 2025. He is scheduled to make his debut in Gwangju against Shandong Taishan at Olympic Sports Center Stadium on Saturday, two days later, but Park's voice was full of expectations rather than tension. He is excited to show his new side by wearing a new uniform. "I heard that captain Lee Min-ki picked me as an expected player in Gwangju during K-League Media Day," Park said. "I want to prove that it is correct. I have high expectations as I prepared well for the winter training."

When he was a member of the Ulsan youth and youth teams, Park was a "luxury prospect" and a "football genius," which were well known by his name. His moves after entering the professional league were regrettable. After failing to establish a seat in his hometown of Ulsan, Park went downhill after failing to fulfill his potential after moving to K League 2 club Busan in 2021. It was also regrettable that he spent time with E-Land, who joined the team in 2023, and Daejeon, where he joined on loan in 2024. "I don't want to be called a prospect anymore," Park said. "I spend every day thinking only about soccer. My physical strength has also improved a lot." 토토사이트

During the past month in Gwangju, Park spent "a series of shocks." Surprised by Lee's passion, Park said, "I was surprised that Gwangju players put attack before defense. I focused on how to plan various offensive tactics to score more goals." Park was taught how to position himself in an offensive situation, how to prepare for the next play, and how to finish off the game. He seems to be itching to show his improved performance on the field.

Park Jung-in, who plays all positions of offense by banking on his unique sense of soccer and speed, will be deployed as a left-handed striker in the Jeonghyo Bowl. With Um Ji-sung playing for the team through the first half of the 2024 season, Park was assigned the task of collaborating with Hayes, left-footed winger Asani, and tall striker Park In-hyuk. "My goal is to move beyond advancing to the Final A group to the top three. I think this is an ideal goal, but there is nothing that can't be done. Personally, I want to help my team by scoring more than 10 offensive points," Park said.
