  • Listen to the full episode now at manutd.com/podcasts and in the Official Man Utd App!
    This week the UTD Podcast spoke to Ji-Sung Park all about his incredible journey to Manchester United, which involved starting football at a late age, arguing with his parents about wanting to play and even going on hunger strike to get his own way!
    Ji reflected fondly on his special years at Old Trafford and his close relationship with the fans, but he had a request of the United supporters - he asked them to stop singing his chant which has offensive connotations to the people of Korea.
    As always, Helen, Sam and Maysie also read out your emails at the end of the episode. If you'd like to write to the only official Manchester United Podcast then e-mail utdpodcast@manutd.co.uk

    Fair play to Ji-Sung Park. He isn't going full black and white saying it's terrible now and always was - he shows some nuance about how he's proud but it's difficult because of the racial element, being new to English football and it being a different time. Very well said sir.

    Many superstars have come and gone from this great club but deep down in my heart, Park was always my favourite player. Fergie always started him in the biggest games because he could trust him. I was always so proud when I saw the pre-game lineups and Park Ji-Sung was starting in the midfield. No disrespect to Rooney, Ronaldo or any others but Park was the BUSINESS. Hope you see this buddy, you were the best. Love from Australia

  • @jinsillustrates
    @jinsillustrates Před 2 lety +20

    When Park steps on the field he probably wasn't the best player, but I can guarantee he was the hardest working. And that is why he is my favorite player. If you ask him for 100%, he would give you 110% and as a fan, there is nothing more you can wish for.

    Park needs a statue outside OT.
    It's an amazing chant, but if it makes him uncomfortable. We should change it.

    Definitely in my top 5 favourite United players, born in 92 and introduced to football at age of 6-7 so dont attack me for my choices but in no particular order..... Ji-Sung Park - Van persie - Scholes - Berbatov and then Nani the day real madrid knocked us out the champions league and he got a red card.... cough cough ref got paid, seriously tho these players made United a joy to watch you never knew what theyd pull out the bag.
