Thanks for answer! Great to finally talk Korean football let alone korean goalkeepers!

Many still think Jung is "incompetent" has earned the nicknamed "gorilla" among the forums I use to browse.

You are right about Kim Seung-Gyu. Many tout him as the future of Korean goalkeeping with Lee Bum-Young slowly behind. Do you think Jung will be the GK for Asian Cup 2015? I think so but that just might be his last big tournament.

I might be biased towards Kim Yong-Dae as he's my favorite Korean footballer but I do realize has was shakey at time during 2011 and 2013. But during the end of 2013, he was regaining form and now it seems the defense is pretty much giving him grief all the time. FC Seoul without Dejan and Adi has been noticable. Do you think FC Seoul will ever be the same without (arguably) two of the best players of Dejan Damjanovic and Adi?

Getting to the final of the 2013 AFC CL (for FC Seoul) was pretty amazing and I will forever kick myself when he was in the South Korean NT in early 2000s and I was still 10-11 years old. I have his FC Seoul jersey which Adi himself helped me get. I cherish it forever.

Thanks for your time!

What was your favorite country to visit and least favorite?

Hmm, I see it now. Great. Thanks, I will start using appropripate usage.

As for jerseys, if you could do that, with Seunggyu, that would be pretty crazy and a feat in itself. Sadly, I'm not going to Brazil but Russia 2018 is a possibility and Qatar 2022 is a definite. But getting back to me, regardless, thanks in advance and your generous attitude.

I am a big, big fan <IMG>. That jersey was personally given to be by the graciousness of Adi himself. Pretty sure I wouldn't have gotten it any other way.

Put it this way, if I had a chance to meet Casillas (of Spain; where I am from) or Kim Yongdae, I'd choose Kim Yongdae because while meeting Iker would be amazing, I feel more connected with Yongdae's achievements (I guess I got complacent with Spain winning?) and besides... more time to hangout since he's not as famous ;-) (but of course, I'd need a translator if Kim Yong-dae doesn't speak English/Spanish...)

Thanks for everything. Loved reading the AmA!

What do you think of South Korean goalkeeper Kim Yong-Dae? Many dismiss him but I think he's a great shotstopper.

Great. Looking forward to see what Kim Seung-gyu can do. (Slighty, I see it spelled on the Wiki as "Kim Seung-Gyu and you and others do it with lower-case G...., which is the correct way?)

And secondly, do you think the KFA will ever sell jerseys of goalkeepers of the national team? I would love buying a NT jersey of Kim Seung-gyu in the future.

And lastly, do you by the off-chance of 99/1,000,000 happen to know someone who has a Kim Yong-Dae jersey of when he played in the South Koean national team from the early 2000s...

Cheers.
