Jung Ki-sun (42), the senior vice president of HD Hyundai, who visited Ulsan HD’s “winning coronation,” did not leave her smile all the time.
He visited Suwon FC in the 38th round of the “Hana Bank K League 1 2024” that ended at Ulsan Munsu Stadium on Sunday, and cheered for them from the stands for the final match of this season’s league (Ulsan 4-2 win). When Park Chu-young showed a great performance of one goal and one assist at the end of the second half when the score was 2-2, he kicked up his chair and cheered loudly.
Ulsan, which earlier confirmed its early K League 1 title and third consecutive win, held a grand “Kingdom Coronation Ceremony” in the atmosphere of victory. Senior Vice Chairman Chung welcomed players and coaches on the ground with Kwon Oh-gap, president of the Korea Professional Football Association, HD Hyundai Chairman, and CEO Kim Kwang-guk of Ulsan.
Chung offered the winning medal to Kwon and Chung. After the trophy ceremony, the players also joined Chung for a separate ceremony. When Chung approached the supporters’ stand, he snatched them and rinsed them in a surprise move. Later, some veterans including Kim Young-kwon poured champagne on Chung, who smiled brightly and made a hand gesture asking for more champagne, drawing attention. 안전놀이터
An HD Hyundai official said, “Actually, the senior vice president feels a little uncomfortable in his back. I was worried about him when he shook his head, but he didn’t seem uncomfortable at all because it was a happy day, but he seemed to be enjoying it.” Players shouted “Bonus! Bonus!” at the meeting to make people laugh. Chung immediately communicated with Kim and others to promise victory bonus.
Chung was promoted from vice chairman to senior vice chairman when HD Hyundai presidents were appointed on the 14th. The eldest son of Chung Mong-joon, chairman of the Asan Foundation, promised full support to Ulsan HD and held a microphone in front of supporters. “I thought I would get used to it if I lost three consecutive games, but my heart is still overwhelmed and hot,” he said. “I am grateful to the coach, the team, and the Cheoyong Warriors (supporters) who cheered hard.” Cheoyong shouted, “Jung Ki-seon!”
