Playing career

edit

Park was the captain of the South Korea under-20 squad which won the 1978 AFC Youth Championship.[6]

On 8 March 1981, Park made his senior international debut against Japan, which ended in a 1–0 victory.[7][8]

Park performed his mandatory military service in the football club of ROK Army after he joined the semi-professional club Korea First Bank [ko].

From 1984 to 1988, Park played for Lucky-Goldstar Hwangso, and contributed to the 1985 K League title. He received the K League Best XI award in that season.[9]

Coaching career

edit

After his retirement as a player, Park started a coaching career at Lucky-Goldstar Hwangso in 1989. In November 1996, he was appointed a caretaker manager and was in charge of one match in the 1996 Korean FA Cup.[10]

From 1997 to February 2000, Park was a coach of Suwon Samsung Bluewings.

Park was one of the two assistant managers of Guus Hiddink at the 2002 FIFA World Cup.[11]

Managerial career

edit

South Korea U23

edit

In August 2002, Park was appointed as manager of the South Korean side for the 2002 Asian Games by performing successfully as the senior team assistant.[12] However, Korea Football Association (KFA) hadn't done any preparation for the 2002 Asian Games since there was no manager or coaching staff for 2 years. KFA had focused on the 2002 FIFA World Cup, which was co-hosted in South Korea, so Park had to prepare for the tournament in 2 months. In addition, KFA was criticized that Park worked without getting paid because they formally didn't sign with him.[13] South Korea lost to Iran on penalties in the semi-finals, but won the bronze medal. Park was sacked after the tournament.[14]

South Korean clubs

edit

In August 2005, Park became the inaugural manager of the newly-formed Gyeongnam FC in the K League.[15] Gyeongnam finished fourth in the 2007 K League season, but Park left the team due to internal conflict.[16]

In December 2007, Park succeeded Huh Jung-moo as the manager of Jeonnam Dragons.[17] The team finished as the runners-up of the 2008 League Cup and sixth in the 2009 K League. He later resigned due to poor performances in the 2010 season.[18]

From 2012 to 2015, Park managed the military team Sangju Sangmu in South Korea. Under his guidance, his squad won the country's second-division league, K League Challenge, in 2013 and 2015. He left the team after his contract expired after the 2015 season.[19]

In 2017, Park was appointed manager of Changwon City, a third-division team. Changwon won the 2017 Korea National League Championship, and he was named the tournament's best manager.[20]

Vietnam

On 29 September 2017, Park was appointed the manager of the Vietnam national football team.[21] His debut match for Vietnam was a goalless draw against Afghanistan in the third round of the 2019 AFC Asian Cup qualification on 14 November 2017, which helped Vietnam qualified to the tournament since 2007.[22] Also in charge of the under-23 side, the team reached the final of the 2018 AFC U-23 Championship, which is Vietnam's first-ever final in the official AFC competitions,[23] but they lost 1–2 against Uzbekistan after extra time.[24] He received Vietnam's third-class Labor Order after this achievement, although he lost the title.[25]

At the 2018 Asian Games, his side also advanced to the semi-finals and finished fourth for the first time in 56 years,[26] with Park earning praise for his management.[27] On 15 December 2018, the Vietnamese team under Park won the AFF Championship after defeating Malaysia, 3–2 on aggregate, in the second leg of the finals in Mỹ Đình National Stadium of Hanoi. He received the Friendship Order from the Vietnamese government by bringing Vietnam's first regional championship in 10 years.[28][29]

In the 2019 AFC Asian Cup, Vietnam reached the quarter-finals but lost to eventual runner-up Japan, 1–0.[30] Vietnam also became the runner-up in the 2019 King's Cup as they lost 5–4 in a penalty shootout following a 1–1 draw in the final against Curaçao.[31] Park won the gold medal at the 2019 Southeast Asian Games, thus winning the first football title for Vietnam as a united country at the games.[32] He was awarded the second-class Labor Order by the Vietnamese government the next year.[33] In the very next Southeast Asian games in 2022, he led Vietnam to the second straight title, before he resigned from the under-23 team.[34]

In June 2021, for the second round of 2022 FIFA World Cup qualification, Vietnam was drawn in the same group as Thailand, Malaysia, Indonesia and the United Arab Emirates. With manager Park, the team finished as the runner-up of the group with 17 points from 8 games. Vietnam advanced to the final round of qualification for the first time ever.[35] In the third round of the World Cup qualification, Vietnam earned 4 points by achieving a 3–1 victory to China and a 1–1 draw with Japan, although they lost eight out of ten matches.[36][37] He decided to leave Vietnam after his contract expires on 31 January 2023, so the 2022 AFF Championship in December was Park's last tournament as manager of the Vietnam national football team.[38] At this tournament, Vietnam came into the final but eventually lost to Thailand.[39]

Personal life

edit

Park is a devout Methodist Protestant.[40]

Just after the 2002 FIFA World Cup, Park received the Maengho Medal, the second-class Order of Sport Merit in South Korea, alongside other coaches and players of the national team, who reached the World Cup semi-finals.[41] In December 2022, he also got the Heungin Medal, the second-class Order of Diplomatic Service Merit, due to his contribution to the relationship between South Korea and Vietnam.[42]

During his tenure as Vietnam coach, he was nicknamed "Coach Terminator" by the Vietnamese media due to his supposed role in the resignation or sacking of more notable managers for losses against the lower-ranked Vietnam team. These managers include Guus Hiddink, Ján Kocian, Sven-Göran Eriksson, Antoine Hey, Simon McMenemy, Sirisak Yodyardthai, Alexandre Gama and Bert van Marwijk.[43][44]
