Coach Son Woong Jung talked about his son Son Heung Min’s training on “You Quiz on the Block”.

In tvN’s entertainment program “You Quiz on the Block”, which aired on December 14th, coach Son Woong Jung, the father of football legend Son Heung Min, appeared as a guest.

Son Woong Jung revealed that in the first semester of the 3rd grade of elementary school, Son Heung Min announced that he would play soccer, and Son Woong Jung started training with him.

Son Woong Jung talked about Son Heung Min training basic skills to control the ball, “If I talk about this on the show, fingers will be pointed at me, but kids can’t ignore the basics, play the game just to get results. Who are those results for?

He continued, “Since the kids are young and overworked, problems begin to arise in situations where they have to enter the professional league. In the case of Heung Min, it was after the age of 18 that he practiced shooting. He didn’t before joining Hamburg. Now the academy kids are the same. Never let young children hit the ball far and hard. This is because their joints and muscles are still weak.

Coach Son Woong Jung also showed affection for children playing soccer by adding, “My son is playing soccer, so I have to look far into the future.

When Jo Se Ho asked if Son Heung Min was good before the age of 18, coach Son Woong Jung caused laughter by replying, “I can’t say ‘You did great’ to my child. Se Ho, please wake up.

Someone once reported coach Son Woong Jung, who trained them 6 hours of basic skills every day for 6 years from the third year of elementary school to the third year of middle school, to the police. He said, “It was because I was too harsh. I didn’t even take a day off. I didn’t rest during Chuseok and Lunar New Year. The most important thing is that they are happy. They just need to be happy while playing football. Instead, they have to be good at soccer to be happy. I thought about that simply.

Coach Son Woong Jung revealed that even if Son Heung Min got scolded, it would not last 30 seconds. Yoo Jae Suk admired that he could have followed intensive training because of his personality.

Son Heung Min shared, “It was a recovery exercise day. I did 20 minutes of lifting, a program I always did with my father. Other players were also watching after the training. When I started lifting, they stood and watched. When I finished lifting, they went in together and clapped.

Meanwhile, “You Quiz on the Block” airs every Wednesday at 8:40 PM on tvN.
