A conversation between Son Heung-min and Hwang Ui-jo during training was released and caught the attention of netizens.
On the 13th, on the YouTube channel ‘KFATV_Korea National Soccer Team’, a video titled ‘Best friend ‘Heung-Min-Ui-Jo’, the never-ending free-kick behind-the-scenes’ was uploaded.
In the video, Heung-Min Son and Ui-Jo Hwang mentioned a free-kick goal once morest Paraguay.
Earlier, Son Heung-min said in an interview regarding the free kick goal, “I think Taehwan hyung, who delivered the ball, has a 50% stake, Jinsoo who stands quietly next to him 30%, my friends who stand in front of me 15%, and I have a 5% stake.” said. At that time, Hwang Ui-jo, who created a free-kick chance, was shocked, saying, “There is no story regarding me.”
The producers of YouTube asked Heung-Min Son, “Why didn’t you give me a stake in Uijo?” Son Heung-min said, “That was Chang-hoon’s foul.” Hwang Ui-jo, furious, protested, “That’s what I got.” Son Heung-min said, “Then take my 5% stake.”
Heung-min Son then said, “But it is true that Tae-hwan has a large stake.” Hwang Eui-jo asked, “Why? What did that throw the ball?” Son Heung-min sarcastically said, “How can you kick a free kick without a ball?” Hwang Ui-jo responded, “If it wasn’t for a foul, I wouldn’t be able to take a free kick.”
Heung-Min Son continued the conversation, saying, “Then why are you standing there?” Hwang Eui-jo laughed, “Where are you going?” Son Heung-min joked, “Why are you taking the pass?” and Hwang Eui-jo, “Why are you kicking off?” In the end, Son Heung-min went to the end saying, “Why are you playing soccer?” Hwang Ui-jo finished the joke by beating Son Heung-min with a water bottle.
The video received attention as it spread through various social media and online communities. Netizens showed various reactions, such as “What kind of middle and high school students are”, “I think we talked regarding this a lot when we were young”, “It’s just like high school conversations”, “Boys seem to be all the same”, “They are so funny”, etc. (comment)
