Incredibly similar circumstances to the Chung Yong Lee deal when he went to Fulham - same age, good record at international level, and I highly expect in both cases no one had a clue if they were going to make it.
South Korea have a canny international record to be fair, they've had much better World Cups than England over the past decade![]()
Financially it could be a good deal.
What has to be remembered (pay attention, pants-shitting halfwits) is that due to the league he's coming from, he will probably look absolutely shite and completely lost to begin with. Time and patience is most definitely required with this lad. He'll need to get quicker and stronger and that takes time.
why?
I see no reason at this stage for excitement
My mate's cousin plays for Reading and reckons that Ji Dong was on their books 2 or 3 years ago. Is this true?

The K-League outfit are disappointed at losing their starlet but admitted they had little choice but to let him go.

Sound familiar? SAFC & JH. Not such a big deal when the boot is on the other foot.
I think people are excited because of the impact chung yong lee and park ji sung have hadPeople are excited about a 20 year old Korean striker who scored 8 goals in the K-League, but they are writing off a French international from Ligue 1 champions, because he signed for Newcastle.Weird that.
Dong may become a great signing in time but he did nothing to be excited for until now.
he was with Reading 3 years ago, a bit different i think

Based on this thread, it appears you lot got him for cheap and the korean fans are very pissed that he is going to a "poor" club like Sunderland.

now just a picture of him holding the jersey to confirm it all, and I hope he does well under Steve "Jay Leno" Bruce.

Ji Dong-Won my lord,
Ji Dong-Won,
Ji Don-Won my lord,
Ji Dong-Won,
Ji Dong-Won my lord,
Ji Dong-Won,
Oh lord Ji Dong Won.
That would be the best and easiest song to get going.
