It was a witty response.
FC Seoul defeated Suwon Samsung 1-0 in the 19th round of the Hana OneQ K League 1 2023 at Suwon World Cup Stadium at 4:30 p.m. on Thursday. With the three points, Seoul briefly moved into second place in the league and snapped a three-match winless streak.
The game remained scoreless until late in the second half, when Seoul opened the scoring in the 42nd minute. Osmar’s long ball down the left flank was picked up by Willian, who beat his man and fired a powerful shot from inside the box to split Suwon’s goal. The match ended with a 1-0 victory for Seoul.
After the game, Na met with the media in the Mix Zone. We talked about the Super Match, but since the game was centered around Hwang Ui-jo’s farewell match, the questions centered around Hwang Ui-jo. This was especially true because Na Sang-ho was the player who was closest to Hwang Ui-jo during his six months in Seoul.
In addition to being with Hwang on the national team, Na Sang-ho has also spent the last six months in Seoul. The two players stuck together like lovers. This continued on the field. Together, Hwang Ui-jo and Na Sang-ho led Seoul’s offense and helped fuel the team’s rise.
When the topic of Hwang Ui-jo came up, a smile spread across Na Sang-ho’s face. “I said I would score 10 goals for Seoul, but I didn’t, so I think I’ll have to stay. I want to convince him that I can let him go if he scores 10 goals,” he said, adding that he wants Hwang Ui-jo to stay.
When asked if he felt like he was breaking up with his lover, Na laughed, saying, “I don’t feel that way because (Hwang) is not a girl.” He continued, “I’m fine next to him now. He continued, “It’s okay because I’m with her now. I think I’ll have those feelings only when it’s time to leave. I think I’ll feel a sense of emptiness when I realize that she won’t be around from the next match.” 메이저놀이터
Na Sang-ho has another reason to be sad to part ways with Hwang Ui-jo. Seoul introduced a voluntary commuting system this season, meaning players have to travel to and from work on their own. Na Sang-ho has reportedly been taking Hwang Ui-jo’s car to work with him, which means he’ll have to find transportation again if he leaves.
“I haven’t thought about it (a new carpool partner) yet. If I go wrong, I might have to take the bus. I’ll try to find (a carpool partner),” he said, adding that he might commute by bus after Hwang Ui-jo leaves. The interviewers laughed along with him.
Meanwhile, there are buses passing in front of Guri GS Champions Park, the team’s training center in Seoul, and the Seoul World Cup Stadium is accessible via subway line 6.
