Hwang Hee-chan scored a net in the 18th round of the English Premier League (EPL) between Wolverhampton and Manchester United in the 2024-2025 season in Molineux, Wolverhampton, England, on the afternoon of the 26th (local time). It was Hwang Hee-chan's first goal of the season. Wolverhampton held United 2-0 and collected three points. I met Hwang Hee-chan after the game. He said "The first goal took longer than I thought. It's just the beginning. We have half the season left. "I'm so happy that I can help the team win."
◇ Q&A with Hwang Hee-chan
-It's my first goal of the season. I've been waiting for a long time.
▶It took longer than I thought. I think it's just the beginning. There's still half the season left, so a new director is here. As soon as you come here, you're winning two games in a row, and I'm very happy that there's something that could have helped us win. I think I was twice as happy. I think there's nothing like that because I can score goals and win.
-What kind of spells does director Vitor Pereira make a lot of.
▶ Please let the players play with confidence. These days, many coaches have good details, but the coach is also helping the players do well in every situation. First of all, I think they instilled a lot of confidence. Let's make sure that the players can show as much as possible in a comfortable mindset. For example, Guedes and Rodrigo players who didn't play much are showing good performances again. As shown in those situations, I think he instills confidence in the players.
-What do you tell Hwang Hee-chan?
▶We talked a lot, too, but first of all, you've known me for a long time. In the past, you said directly to recruit him. I've come to trust the director, and there are parts where I talk about that with the director, so it's just the beginning. There are a lot of games, so I'm trying to do it more calmly and as always.
-It hasn't been an easy time. What kind of mindset did you prepare?
▶To be really honest, I don't think it's natural to always play as a main player every season because it's actually the best stage and there are really good players in the world. So, I did well last season and of course, I have high expectations and I want to show you a better performance. Of course, everyone would think so, but I know that it's not that easy. I think such a difficult time will come to me. It would be a lie to say that I enjoy these times more, but I think it's a really good time for me to grow strong and well even at this time. I've always overcome it, and there were so many good results when I overcome it, so I think it's a time to look back on myself and prepare myself more. I think I'm always going back to my initial days and spending every day like that.
-The next game is Tottenham away.
▶The Korean people will be waiting the most, and they will try to enjoy the moment more because it's a very special game for us, for me and for Heungmin. We're in a good atmosphere and it's not always easy to go away to Tottenham, but we won last season. If we do it with that confidence, I think we will be able to show good performances in front of many Korean fans and our fans.
