Guys Bento was right not to call him up and let him get back to fitness with his team. If he doesn't call him up in the future now that's a completely different story. But you can't ignore someone like Kwon.
“넘어진 순간 아킬레스건이 끊어졌다고 확신했다. 부상 부위를 만졌는데 바로 그 생각이 들었다. 아무 생각이 안 들었다. 현실 같지 않았다. 믿을 수도 없었다. 집에 와서도 이게 진짜인가란 생각을 했다. 그냥 멍했다" “재활하기 힘들었고, 처음 당해보는 부상이었다. 수술도 보통 수술이 아니었다. 심적으로 힘들었고 고민도 많이 했다. 그런데 우리 팀에 똑같은 부상을 당한 선수들이 몇 명 있었다. 그들이 수술하고 회복하는 과정을 봤다. 그 친구들 도움으로 순조롭게 재활했다” “당연히 대표팀이 간절하다. 빨리 가보고 싶다. 난 항상 대표팀에서 뛰는 게 중요하다고 생각한다. 뛸 수 있는 몸을 만들어야 한다” Kwon Chang-hoon: "As soon as I fell to the ground, I was convinced that I ruptured my Achilles tendon, and I immediately knew when I touched the injured area. I couldn't think, it didn't seem like reality, I just couldn't believe it, even when I went home I questioned whether this was real or not, I was just zoned out." "Rehabilitating was difficult - it was the first time suffering an injury like this, and the surgery was no ordinary surgery either. It was tough psychologically and I worried about a lot of things, but there's few players in our team that all have suffered the same injury as me, and I saw how they all recovered after surgery, and with the help from those friends I was able to smoothly recover." "Of course I am eager to play for the national team, I want to quickly return. I always believe that it's important to be playing for the national team. I have to get back in form."
He saved Korea that day. We were totally dominated and he scored that screamer out of nothing, against the run of play. That's why need him ASAP with Korea. Officially my favorite player (along with LJS and SHM) : hard-worker, humble, nice guy and gifted technically. He's a more offensive version of PJS.
The bottom fell out of my heart when he tore his Achilles on the last very last match of the season, not just because my World Cup hopes were dashed in that moment, but because I believed he would never fully recover, a la LCY (rivaling PJS as my favorite ever). As an NBA fan, seeing Kobe, Rudy Gay, Wes Matthews, etc. return as shells of their former selves made me despair for KCH's future. Seeing how DeMarcus Cousins and KCH have bounced back has exceeded any reasonable expectations. Amazing...
What's KCH's military situation? Can he defer til the Asian Games? The people I wanna see exempt are LKI WYJ KCH PSH, not ********ing trash HUJ HHC LSW etc. If LKI isn't in the next WC/Asian Games squad because he's too "young" and has to end up doing military service I will quit watching this shit team for good.
