Previously, Koo Ja-cheol appeared on SPOTV and pointed out that the traditional perception that "youth skills are fundamentals" is actually hindering Korean football, saying, "Young players are only trying to focus on the basics. It's really the worst," and added, " We need to teach them how to make decisions in different environments. Korean players often have slow decision-making and can't keep up with the pace of the game." He went on to use German youth education as an example, emphasizing that training to develop situational awareness and decision-making skills is more important than fundamentals. He continued, "In Germany, even 7-year-olds are continuously taught why they should turn left instead of right," and explained, "They help them understand why that choice is important and develop their senses." He also said, "The difference between players who only repeat the basics and those who learn judgment from a young age widens over time," and added, "It's not the fundamentals themselves that matter, but why those skills are needed for training." There is a lack of programs that make you realize this internally," expressing his disappointment. In response, Lee Kang-in expressed sympathy with Koo Ja-cheol's remarks on the broadcast about fostering Korean youth football on his SNS on the 18th, sharing his sympathy for the need for change in Korean youth football. ,,,Since Lee Kang-in has experienced European-style education since childhood and has supported the need for change in Korean youth football, it is interpreted that although it was a simple post sharing, it is interpreted as a reflection of the issue of the way Korean football is growing.
