Son Hyuk-chan (20), the first "Seonggol Youth" in the history of E-Land FC in Seoul, expressed his affection for his fans.

Seoul E-Land drew 1-1 at home in the second round of Hana Bank K League 1 2025 against Jeonnam Dragons at Mokdong Stadium on the 1st (Korea Standard Time).

On this day, Son Hyuk-chan was selected with a surprise U-22 card and put on the starting list for about 15 minutes. Although physical time did not support showing something, it was significant for Seoul E-Land fans that the first "Sunggol Youth" in history was on the ground.

Son Hyuk-chan wore the Seoul E-Land uniform in 2016 when he was a sixth grader in elementary school. Starting with the U-12, he went through the U-15 and the U-18, and went on to Yongin University in 2023 and became a leading winger on the college stage for two years.

Son Hyuk-chan, who joined the first team at the invitation of head coach Kim Do-kyun ahead of this season, will be able to fulfill his dream of making a professional debut as a ball boy he had been raising as a child. The history of Seoul E-Land, which marks its 11th anniversary, has also left a big footprint of "the first sexual youth in the club's history."

"It's my first time doing an interview in a professional league," Son said with an awkward smile after the match. "I'd like to thank the coach and the coaching staff for the opportunity. It was okay on the previous day, but I was very nervous when I came to the stadium. It was my first time performing in front of the fans. Although it was a short time, I was able to take another step forward while listening to the fans' cheers."

Asked to rate Son Hyuk-chan, who will make his first debut on the day, Kim Do-kyun said, "It's his debut, but it has a lot of symbolism because he was a member of the youth team. I put him in because he showed good performance through training," adding, "He is a player who can use both feet freely. He has good shooting and kick, so I expect he will create a chance in that area."

Son Hyuk-chan said, "As the coach said, you can shoot and kick anytime, anywhere because you use both feet well and kick well. I couldn't show you that this time, but I'll prove it soon," adding, "I'm a right-footed player, but now I'm comfortable with my left foot because I've been practicing hard."

The title of "Sunggol Youth" is also meaningful to fans, but it is also meaningful to Son Hyuk-chan. "I watched the Seoul E-Land game as a fan when I was young. It's a team that I really like. I really like that it's a fan friendly club that we create with our fans," Son said with a smile. 메이저놀이터

Then, what is his ultimate goal? "I want to score a goal and do a heart ceremony to say I love you to the fans," Son said. "As a team, I want to do my best to achieve promotion. Cheering from fans for the first time was a big driving force. As I have achieved my lifelong dream of playing in a uniform of Seoul E-Land, I will do my best every day without losing my initial commitment."
