They'd also prefer him to go to Bolton, which considering where they finished in the league and the size of the respective clubs, shows that they don't know what they are talking about.
A Bolton fan said that.

excellent signing, this time last year all the kids were mincing about with "bent" wrote across their backs.
"dong" is much more masculine and will stand them in good stead for the future. for this reason alone it is worth the 600k fee. the local clergy will be delighted
I didn't say they did.
I would Lee's success at Bolton makes them trust more.
He shoots, He scores,
He'll eat your Labrador,
Ji Dong Won, Ji Dong Won.
some nutter from that forum said:Seriously, WTF!? Sunderland is now flush w/ cash. If Sunderland can sell an unproven, only good in 5 matches, talent like Henderson for £20M, surely they can offer more for a player that is INFINITELY more talented and accomplished at the international level.

Works out at less than £10,000 a week.
Is he a big Dong?
I don't see why they'd think him being the same nationality as Lee would mean he'd be any more successful there. Just look at the Ghanaians we've had, Gyan a hit and Muntari a miss.
There was also the fullback who was at PSV with Park and then went to Spurs whose name escapes me, he wouldn't have adapted more or been more successful in the PL if he had joined Park at Man Utd or gone to where there was another Korean, like Boro or Reading.
He's right though in a sense, he is infinitely more accomplished at international level, having scored 6 goals in 11 games or whatever it is. more talented? don't know enough about him, but he seems talented.
The only really ridiculous thing they are saying is that we are insulting them by paying so little. football is a business, and you pay the lowest amount possible. It is Chunnam's fault for the low buyout value. They mustn't have valued him very highly when they agreed the contract. If their value raised then they should have offered him a better contract, and changed the value of the buyout. If they think any other clubs would have paid more without having to then they are living in dreamland.
I hope this transfer comes off because I really do think he looks like a talented footballer, and I hope he comes here and becomes the next Korean star in Europe. I hope Korean fans will realise that English people having a laugh about eating dogs shouldn't really be taken insultingly. For many people in England, the fact that many people in Korea eat dog meat is the first thing that comes to their minds. I've eaten dog meat myself in Vietnam and I can tell you it was a pretty good meal. Wouldn't order it all the time mind you. English cuisine is laughed at by many Europeans and put down, just like the English tease the Scottish about deep-frying everything. Although a little silly that this is the first thing people think about, I don't think it can be racist unless someone says "Koreans aren't as good as us because they eat dog meat."
If this transfer comes off I personally would like to invite the Koreans from that board to join up here and give us the lowdown on JDW. You will hear lots of jokes about penises and dog meat, but I'm sure you can be thick-skinned enough to cope. You will have half the board believing he is crap and useless after one bad game. Half this board are absolute morons, but if you sort the wheat from the chaf you can usually get some pretty good debates and discussions about football.
Oh, and SAFC is a good option for him to come to, exactly because we only have 1 fit striker at the moment. Any new strikers we buy will all have just as much chance to prove themselves.
Very Quinn-esque goal
