The first place in Asia to cover the news of Son Jin-ho’s naturalization that broke in Germany was none other than Japan.
[Germany wants the naturalization of Son Jin-ho, a colleague of Shinji Kagawa!]
[Son Jin-ho, will he wear the German uniform?]
The number of Japanese reporters in Germany was on a different level from that of Korea, so there was a truly diverse group of people.
They were known to be close friends of Shinji Kagawa and quickly sent to their home country an article about the naturalization of Jin-ho Son, who had many fans in Japan due to his good looks.
It’s not like Son Jin-ho was naturalized; it was just that the German media mentioned Son Jin-ho’s naturalization in Germany once.
[What if Son Jin-ho naturalizes as a German citizen? What will be the impact on Japan?]
What mattered to them was gossip that would grab the readers’ attention, not boring, obvious facts.
[Korea’s Limits? Korean Sports Stars Escaping to Germany.]
The articles gradually became more provocative and more suited to their tastes.
[Japan accepts naturalized athletes, Korea even tries to leave its own athletes!]
└ I wish the damage would just be naturalized in Germany.
└ 50 years of regression in Korean soccer wwwww
└ Asian Tiger (laughs) wwwww
Japanese netizens are responding with mockery to Son Jin-ho’s naturalization rumors.
“Huh!? Senior! I heard there’s a rumor going around about Son Jin-ho becoming naturalized in Japan?”
The news of Son Jin-ho’s naturalization and the Japanese people’s reactions naturally entered the ears of Korean reporters who were listening to news from Japan.
“What are you doing! Copy it quickly and upload it! You can tell just by looking at it that it’s going to get a ton of views!”
Could it be because it was a time when anti-Japanese sentiment was at its peak, with people saying that Japan should not lose to them at rock, paper, scissors?
“Hey! What’s this title?! It’s boring! How about Son Jin-ho, the Traitor to the Nation? Let’s go with this.”
“Wouldn’t the 21st century Lee Wan-yong Son Jin-ho be better than that? And senior! What about the content of the article?”
“If he naturalizes, he will be a traitor to his nation and a 21st century Lee Wan-yong.”
The Korean rags began to burn with a sense of mission that they should not lose to the Japanese rags.

The news of Son Jin-ho’s naturalization that broke in Japan and the reactions of Japanese netizens were modified to suit the tastes of Korean reporters.
The article was written during commuting hours, but as most people were switching from feature phones to smartphones at the time, people were able to come across Son Jin-ho’s article on their way to work, and various reactions poured in on Internet communities.
[Title: What is the Football Association doing that is stealing players?]
└ Ha;; We’re not even as good at soccer as Germany, and now we’re losing the players we have to Germany. ㅅㅂ;
└ Why are you guys saying it was taken away already when you haven’t even naturalized yet?
└ Aren’t you naturalized?
└ ㅇㅇ;; It’s not that he was naturalized, it’s just that the Japanese took what they wrote in the German media about Son Jin-ho playing for the German national soccer team and made it into news, which caused it to burn.
└ If you go in and read the article about traitors to the nation and such, the naturalization theory has been revealed~ That’s the end of it. It was just an attempt to draw aggro.
└ Phew… You fucking piece of shit! I was taking a morning shit at work when I saw the headline and freaked out. By the way, if you had called my brother up to the senior national team sooner, wouldn’t this have happened?
└ Why didn’t you call me when I’m really being chewed out in the Bundesliga?
└ The former president of the association opposed the draft. He said there was a risk of overwork as they are the future of Korean soccer and are still growing youth.
└ … I think what the association president said is right? Park Ji-song also retired from the national team at a young age, so my brother shouldn’t do that;;;
└ Still, I should have let him play one game for the senior national teamㅠㅠ
└ But do you want me to be the only one who naturalizes and plays soccer happily?
└ Seriously ㅋㅋ Honestly, looking at the current state of the association, I’d rather them naturalize in Germany.
└ Yeah~ You traitorous bastards, get out ^^
And three days passed since then.

[Dortmund’s new star Gino, naturalized to Germany!]
“…What is this?”
I sighed as I read the newspaper article published today.
My naturalization theory, which started in Germany and was imported to Korea via Japan, is now being exported back from Korea to Germany via Japan.
Looking at the speed at which the fire was spreading, it seemed like I had to do an interview with the press quickly.
Because it was impossible to predict how far it would spread once the news broke that the German Football Federation had proposed naturalization.
While I was looking at the newspaper with a serious expression.
“So, what are you going to do about nationality?”
Winter, which had come before we knew it, hugged me and asked cautiously.
“Well, I guess I’ll just play in Korea?”

I answered blandly.
After thinking about it in many ways.
Still, I thought it would be best to choose my home country, Korea.
Even though the Football Association is a mess, I still have affection for it because it is where I was born and raised.
‘They say that when you go abroad you become a patriot, so is that why?’
Well. And actually, the merits of naturalizing in Germany are not as great as you might think.
It was just five years ago that Gerald Ajamoa retired from the German national team due to racial abuse.
Although he is a black player who played for the German national team, he has become a symbol of breaking down racial barriers.
I never wanted to become an icon of racial resistance like Geralt Azamoa.
‘You’re not giving me a bottle or medicine, what is that?’
Well… I could become an icon of social integration like France’s Zinedine Zidane, not Gerald Azamoah, but can’t anyone predict that the process to get there will be difficult?
– Hou: Mino, please set up an interview. I think we need to publish an article.
I patted Winter’s head as I sent a message to Mino Raiola. I didn’t want to see my loved ones get hurt by my choice to become a naturalized citizen.
[Gino opens his mouth about the naturalization rumor. ‘It is true that I received a naturalization offer from the German Football Federation. I am truly grateful and honored to be a member of the German national team, but unfortunately, my identity is more Korean than German. I have never thought of wearing any national team uniform other than the Korean national team uniform.’]
So, I decided to become a sailor for the South Korean national team after giving an interview to the German media about naturalization.
‘But why haven’t these guys contacted me yet?’
For some reason, the association, my only concern, has yet to contact me.
‘What kind of trouble are these kids trying to break out of this silence?’
The pups were strangely quiet, which made them even more anxious.

A month before Son Jin-ho’s naturalization interview with German media.
The Korean Association was literally five minutes away from a mess.
The Korea Football Association was thrown into chaos after the Sapporo disaster, with coach Park Kwang-rae being fired and the association president and senior executives being arrested on charges of breach of trust.
[Shock! South Korea records a draw with Kuwait!]
The people were extremely angry when the national team’s coach was not even selected and the team played poorly and drew with Kuwait.
[Angry Red Devils call for reforms from Football Association.]
[The Football Association to undergo a national audit for the first time in 6 years?]
Due to public anger, the political world also began to take interest in the Football Association issue and mention it.
After the arrest of Chairman Cho Yeon-jong, the newly elected Chairman Jeong Do-jun immediately excluded all people related to Chairman Cho and shifted all responsibility to his predecessors.
“Shouldn’t Choi Ki-hyun do something too?”
In the process, there was also talk about the treatment of Choi Ki-hyun, who was classified as a pro-Jo Yeon-jong faction.
“Don’t you know how close Son Jin-ho and Choi Ki-hyun are? Why do you keep trying to mess with a kid who is good at soccer overseas? Leave him alone!”
Considering his friendship with Jin-ho Son, he was able to remain in his position as the person in charge of studying abroad in Germany.
So the Football Association shifted responsibility to the former president and his faction, excluding Choi Ki-hyun.
[Director Park Kwang-rae expresses his grievances. ‘The problem is not the association president, but the pre-modern football association administration.’]
The public’s anger toward the association still showed no signs of abating.
Amid worsening public opinion and resulting pressure from the political world.
News of Son Jin-ho’s naturalization was delivered from Germany.
The moment when the executives of the Football Association were about to laugh off the articles that were clickbait with their titles, saying that they were just a bunch of crap.
[Shock! Jin-ho Son, naturalized in Germany!]
An article that was exported back from Korea was re-reported in Germany.
“Isn’t this something that Choi Ki-hyun and Son Jin-ho are plotting to do? Why would there be smoke coming out of a chimney if there’s no smoke!”
The embarrassed football association heard the truth from Choi Ki-hyeon, but they did not easily believe it.
“Are you just an individual player? You should know how to sacrifice for the organization!”
Some people argued that this was an opportunity to break through by using Son Jin-ho as a scapegoat.
What was important to them was the position and the title they held, not the development of Korean football.
[Shock! Apartment building built by medieval construction collapses! Controversy over poor construction!]
At first, Chairman Jeong Do-jun tried to ignore their opinions, saying that the facts had not been confirmed, but when a controversy over faulty construction broke out at the construction company he runs,
In order to urgently divert the public’s attention, he eventually ordered public opinion to be swayed toward Son Jin-ho.
[Shocking insider revelations from the Football Association! Was the dismissal of coach Park Kwang-rae not the only case where procedures were not followed?]
[Son Jin-ho’s study abroad in Germany was carried out at the discretion of former Korea Football Association President Cho Yeon-jong.]
[Association President Jeong Do-jun, public sniping at Son Jin-ho? ‘If you were going to send a soccer player abroad, you should have sent him as a patriotic player.’]
At that time, articles planned by the association were pouring out through the media and the public’s anger was about to be directed at Son Jin-ho.
[Son Jin-ho, interview with German media. ‘My identity is Korean. I have no intention of wearing any other national team uniform besides the Korean national team.’]
An article about Son Jin-ho’s interview with German media was reported in Korea.
