◇ Q&A with Resident Regulations

-He scored goals and won.

▶First of all, we're going to the final qualifying round for the first time on the road, and I expected a very difficult game. However, I think it was a very good game because I was able to score goals and win in such a difficult situation with my team members.

-How did you feel when you were replacing.

▶First of all, I went in like that because it's important to win a little solidly defensively in a situation where I'm winning 2 to 1. Heung-min gave me a good chance, so I think I was able to score a goal like that.

-I formed a competitive composition with Oh Se-hoon.

▶Sehun has his own strengths. Also, I have my own strengths, so I think you're using it well because you know a little bit about the coach's appointment depending on the situation in the team.

-If there's anything I'm better at than Oh Se-hoon.

▶Sehun is really good, but I think I scored a lot of goals.In the K-League.
