[OSEX | Suwon = Mulichi Reporter] Something unbelievable just happened. Suwon Samsung has appointed Jung Hoo Lee as its new manager.
Suwon Samsung announced on the morning of the 15th that they have appointed SF Giants baseball player Jung Hoo Lee as the 11th manager. While reporters familiar with soccer expected Suwon to hire Gwangju FC's manager Jung Hyo Lee, due to a clerical error by the Suwon front office, the coaching contract was sent to Jung Hoo Lee, who accepted, making him Suwon's manager.
In an interview with OSEX, new manager Jung Hoo Lee said, "I was dumbfounded when I first got the coaching contract. I get paid 30 billion won right now, and they asked me to come be the manager for 1.5 billion won." He added, "The San Francisco Giants won 88 games last year. When I checked Suwon's record last year, they had 20 wins. I figured, 'This looks doable,' and that's why I accepted."
Meanwhile, a Suwon official stated, "It was an absurd mistake. However, Manager Jung Hoo Lee is more famous and costs more than Manager Jung Hyo Lee. I trust he will definitely do better."
"Fans are losing it over the clerical error, debating if he should play winger, and wondering if he'll bring his baseball bat to enforce discipline on the hopeless Suwon team."
