Mr. Park revealed his return to a surprising country

Mr. Park was interviewed by KBS News upon his return to Korea.

Coach Park Hang-seo's return to coaching is still a topic of interest not only in Vietnam but also in his homeland, South Korea, especially after Ho Chi Minh City Club discussed with the representative of "Mr. Sleeping", Mr. Lee Dong-jun.

However, it seems that Mr. Park is not very interested in the prospect of becoming the Technical Director of Ho Chi Minh City Club. According to reporter Son Ki-seong of KBS News (Korea), the attention of Southeast Asian countries is rekindling.

Reporter Son Ki-seong said that there is information confirming that the Singapore team, which has just lost two consecutive matches in the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, is interested in the former head coach of the Vietnam team.

KBS News also shared an interview when Mr. Park returned to Korea on the night of November 28: "I tell you this, I have no intention of returning to the football field in Korea. Because I am teaching football classes for children in Vietnam, I plan to try again in a third country if possible."

It is known that after 5 years and 4 months of success with the Vietnam national team and U.23 Vietnam, Coach Park Hang-seo is spending a lot of time developing the international youth football academy named after him, which is currently open in Hanoi , with the vision of further expansion in Vietnam.

However, South Korean media said that the unsuccessful 2026 World Cup qualifiers seem to be prompting national teams in Southeast Asia to start actively "courting" the 66-year-old coach once again.

Fans in Southeast Asia love the fiery coaching style of the Korean coach.

Mr. Park himself also hinted at this: "I know that they have contacted some places, and because they said that I will make a judgment when they come up with the final conditions, they have to work at a practical level. I only heard that they are in contact, but the conditions must be suitable."

There is an increasing possibility that coach Park Hang-seo will return to the field after nearly a year of recharging, KBS News reporter Son Ki-seoing assessed. The Singapore team lost both of its opening matches of the 2026 World Cup qualifiers, losing 0-5 in South Korea and losing 1-3 to Thailand at home.
