Choo Il Seung-ho “The goal of winning the gold medal in the Asian Games”…
men’s basketball team, led by coach Il-Seung Choo, is working hard to win the gold medal at the Hangzhou Asian Games.
In the evaluation match against Japan, which will be held in our living room this weekend, I am determined to catch two rabbits until victory while raising my sense of practice.
The basketball team is aiming to win the gold medal in the Asian Games for the first time in 9 years. Even in practice games, you can feel the same tension as in a real game.
Incheon Asian Games winning members Oh Se-geun and Kim Seon-hyeong also joined the national team after a long time to help.
<Choi Il-seung / National Basketball Team Coach> “If we make good use of not only ‘fast basketball’ but also elaborate outer lines, I think we will be able to achieve our goal of winning the gold medal.”
Jeon Seong-hyun and Lee Jung-hyun, who wore Sono uniforms together after twists and turns, such as overdue wages and a press conference at the National Assembly, are determined to recreate impressive basketball on the stage of the Asian Games.
<Jeon Seong-hyun / Basketball Team> “I don’t have to go to the National Assembly, I don’t have to meet KBL anymore, I don’t have to worry about anything outside of basketball anymore, so I can focus on sports…
“
Choo Il Seung-ho will have an exhibition match against Japan this weekend in Jamsil.
The basketball match between Korea and Japan was held for the first time in 5 years, with 1 win and 1 loss in 2018.
Although La Gun-ah, Oh Se-geun, and Kim Seon-hyeong are absent, Heo Hoon and other young people stand at the forefront of the fateful Korean-Japanese victory.
Japan is also not a complete force as Hachimura and Watanabe, who play in the NBA, are missing, but we expect it to help improve the sense of practice.
Choo Il Seung-ho plans to confirm the final roster for the Asian Games through the Korea-Japan match.
