Going back in time a little, before Jin-Ho Son was called up to the Olympic team.
Han Myung-bo, who was in charge of the Olympic team, had many concerns.
‘Um… what should I do?’
The problem of overlapping drafts for the senior national team and the Olympic national team has been occurring continuously since the beginning of the year. The association’s pre-modern administration and work processes have made it difficult to draft players.
And the attempt to relieve that frustration by drinking with an acquaintance ended up causing trouble.
“Wow… You’re good.”
“Who? Jin-ho Son?”
“uh.”
“How could you not be able to accumulate attack points like that?”
“No, he uses not only the attack points but also the teammates around him well. There are players who are good only by themselves, and there are players who make their teammates good. Son Jin-ho falls into both categories.”
A Dortmund match was being broadcast at a bar I happened to visit.
And I just told my friend what I felt while watching the game.
[Olympic team coach Han Myung-bo talks about Son Jin-ho in a conversation with an acquaintance. ‘A player who is good at what he does, and a player who sacrifices himself to help others around him do well.’]
This fact was made into an article.
[Son Jin-ho, who scored 6 goals and 5 assists in 6 Bundesliga games! Will he be selected for the Olympic team?]
[Han Myung-bo, positive about Son Jin-ho’s draft! ‘Evaluated as the greatest talent in the history of the Republic of Korea!’]
After going through the media several times, public opinion in Korea began to take it for granted that Son Jin-ho would be drafted.
[Han Myeong-bo, ‘The fact that Son Jin-ho was drafted is groundless. All I said was that he was a good player in a conversation with an acquaintance.’]
I tried to explain that the draft was not confirmed through an emergency press conference.
The media, already extremely excited by the big news of Son Jin-ho’s resignation, was out of control.
Naturally, Han Myung-bo’s worries deepened. Since the Olympic team is not required to be called up, an agreement with the club was essential. Han Myung-bo did not think that Son Jin-ho, who would play a key role in Dortmund, would be sent.
Didn’t Koo Ja-chil, who already plays for Wolfsburg, and Kim Bo-gyeom, who plays for Cerezo Osoka, also have their drafts canceled due to opposition from their clubs?
But then a miracle happened.
[Son Jin-ho, call-up to Olympic national team? ‘I will think about it positively as long as it doesn’t cause trouble to the team.’]
When it became a hot topic in the media, Son Jin-ho’s side was the first to respond.
Coach Han Myung-bo immediately spoke to the Korea Football Association about the call-up of Son Jin-ho, and Son Jin-ho’s call-up went smoothly.
It was my first time as the head coach of the Olympic team. It felt like the pressure from the association’s higher-ups in selecting players had disappeared.
[Chairman of the Korea Football Association Cho Yeon-jong recalls an anecdote with Son Jin-ho. ‘It’s heart-warming to see him playing in Germany at such a young age. I think it was a good idea to send him to study in Germany on my own when others were against it.’]
‘This is it.’
Although he was the only one who figured out the reason, he wasn’t uncomfortable with the fact.
To be exact, it wasn’t a situation where I could feel comfortable enough to find that fact uncomfortable.
Even though there was not much time left until the Olympic group stage, the player draft had not been completed, so it was a situation where even a cat’s paw was needed.
And although Son Jin-ho’s draft was now proceeding without a hitch, a major problem still remained.
It is a mid-season call-up. Unlike the national team call-up, which has an A-match period, there was no separate period for the Olympic qualifiers. Even if the player himself wanted to join, there was a high probability that the club would refuse the call-up.
‘Still, I guess I can be drafted for the main event.’
Han Myeong-bo tried to think positively and looked forward to Son Jin-ho joining. If he is a player who is playing in the Bundesliga at a young age, it will be a good motivation for other players and will be an opportunity for them to grow.

I heard the in-flight announcement and turned my head to look out the window.
I had a strange feeling when I returned to Korea after half a year. Should I say it was a warm feeling like returning home? I guess I developed a sense of patriotism after being abroad.
“It’s me….”
While I was lost in my emotions, I heard Director Choi Ki-hyun’s sleep talking.
When I turned my head, Kihyun Shichi was sitting in the seat next to me, just like when I went to Germany.
Director Choi Ki-hyun was already returning to Korea to report on his study abroad in Germany, which was already a confirmed success.
I quietly closed my eyes and thought about boarding the Olympic team.
It was a competition that I didn’t necessarily have to participate in because I became an orphan before I even reached middle school and was exempt from military service, but I thought it would be a good career if I participated because it was the first competition in the history of Korean soccer to win a bronze medal at the Olympics.
Anyway, I arrived at Incheon Airport.
“Oh, what is it? Where is that bastard Son Jin-ho? When will he come out? Is it okay to keep reporters waiting like this?”
“At this point, wouldn’t it have escaped somewhere else?”
“That kid is already ignoring the reporters!”
“Ignoring the media means ignoring the fans!”
Kihyun Shichi was sent out first to the immigration office where reporters like hyenas were waiting. It was a kind of mine removal.
“The former coach of Geumsun High School who first recognized Son Jin-ho’s talent! It’s me!”
Kihyun Shichi, who had just entered the immigration office, used a wide-area provocation. The effect was amazing.

All the reporters who had been cursing at me were now focused on Kihyun Shichi.
“Haha. Yes, my name is Choi Ki-hyun! I’m the one who first discovered our Jin-ho!!”
With a happy smile, he handles the landmine… no, he leaves behind Kihyun Shichi, who starts an interview with reporters.
“Cheer up! I’ll be cheering for you!”
I approached the fans quietly. Thanks to my index finger to my lips, the fans quietly rejoiced without cheering.
“Thank you! Where would you like me to sign your autograph? Would you like me to take a picture of you? Do you have a dream? I think you’re a student. Shouldn’t you be studying at school right now? You should study hard. I’m also studying German hard, but it’s harder than I thought. I guess languages are a talent.”
“… Ah. Yes. But I need to go to the bathroom… .”
“Speaking of toilets, did you know that there aren’t many toilets in Europe?”
“… .”
And all the fans present were moved by the extreme fan service that followed.
“Player Jin-ho Son!”
The moment I was about to give some extra fan service to the fan who had lost his mind, the reporters who hadn’t been sucked into Kihyunmon cautiously approached me.
“Shh. Please ask your questions in a low voice. I’ll interview you.”
“Uh… Yes.”
Unlike the landmines that had been sucked into Choi Ki-hyun, they knew manners and etiquette and did not ask strange questions.
“So… How do you feel about being selected for the Olympic team?”
I can do that level of interview. I gave autographs and fan service to fans and conducted interviews with reporters.
“I think it is an honor to wear the Taegeuk mark. Are you a worker? Or a student? I plan to run as hard as my body allows. If you are Hodongsaeng, I have an app that I invested in, and you can communicate there… .”
As I played soccer and gave real-time instructions to my teammates during the game, I felt like I had reached a level of multitasking.
“…a monster of interviews and fan service.”
The expressions on the faces of the reporters looking at me like I was a monster were impressive.
Anyway, after finishing all the interviews and fan service, let’s go out of the airport.
“Huh? I thought it would take longer than expected because there were so many reporters there, but you boarded quickly?”
I saw my father-in-law who came to pick me up at the airport. I answered while getting into his car.
“I was able to get out of it easily thanks to Director Choi Ki-hyun taking the aggro for me.”
“Then should I wait?”
“I said I would go first because I thought it would take a long time.”
I don’t think you heard what I was saying because you were so busy smiling while being interviewed by reporters…
Well. It’s not Germany, it’s Korea, so you can probably take the airport bus or subway.
