South Korean international Bae Jun-ho was interviewed by Korean media, discussing the upcoming World Cup.

"The older players on the team created a very comfortable environment for me, so I don't feel like the youngest player on the team. I hope to achieve something (a goal or an assist) in this World Cup."
"Thanks to the Qatar World Cup, Lee Kang-in became a key player for the national team. If I get a chance to play in the group stage, I hope to perform well too."
"My mindset is completely different from when I participated in the U20 World Cup. Back then, I treated it as a tournament to enjoy the game and gain experience, but this World Cup is a competition where I must prove my abilities."
