New coach Shin Sang-woo, who will lead the women's national soccer team, expressed his ambition to restore competitiveness by forming a team again from the beginning.

Coach Shin Sang-woo said at a press conference held at the Korea Football Center in Sinmun-ro, Seoul, that although women's soccer is currently in a difficult situation, it is seen as an opportunity to sketch and color from blank paper.

Regarding the stagnant generational change of women's soccer, he said, "It is too much to change immediately," but added, "If young players play one by one, I think it will motivate other players and gradually change the generation."

The women's national soccer team, which will start anew under coach Shin Sang-woo, will play a friendly match against Asia's strongest Japan on the 26th.

Let's listen to director Shin's ambition.

[Shin Sang-woo / New coach of the women's national soccer team: It's true that generational change is not easy. If the leader's final goal is to be a national coach, the players also think that the final goal is to be a national team, so it is not enough to change it right away. If young players play in the national team one by one, I think it will motivate other players and gradually become a generational change as I intuitively select good players.
