Hwang Hee-chan showed explosive performance this season and established himself as the team’s ace. Starting with a goal against Brighton in the second round, Hwang Hee-chan scored against Crystal Palace, Liverpool, Manchester City, Aston Villa, Newcastle United, Fulham, and Burnley. He also scored multiple goals against Brentford, leading the team to a 4-1 win.

It is an immovable starter. Hwang Hee-chan scored 10 goals and 3 assists in 20 league games under coach Gary O’Neill. Total play time is 1,449 minutes. He’s already played a lot of minutes despite playing less than 1,125 minutes (27 games) last season.

With his multiple goals against Brentford, Hwang Hee-chan recorded his 18th PL goal. Hwang Hee-chan, wearing a Wolverhampton uniform in the summer of 2021, scored a total of 18 goals, including 5 goals in the 2021-22 season, 3 goals in the 2022-23 season, and 10 goals this season. As a result, the gap with ‘Haebeoji’ Park Ji-sung was narrowed to one goal.

Park Ji-sung, nicknamed ‘Haebeoji’, short for the father of overseas soccer, played a role like a pioneer of overseas soccer to Korean soccer fans. He became the first Korean Premier Leaguer wearing a Manchester United uniform in 2005, and played at Old Trafford for seven years until 2012. Afterwards, he moved to Queens Park Rangers (QPR) and played for one season. Ji-Sung Park scored 19 goals for Manchester United.

If Hwang Hee-chan scores just one more goal, he will move into a tie for second place on the all-time Korean Premier League scoring list. According to statistics provided by the PL secretariat, there are a total of 8 Koreans who have scored in the PL so far. Son Heung-min scored the most goals with 115, followed by Park Ji-sung and Hwang Hee-chan. Ki Sung-Yong is in 4th place. Ki Sung-yueng scored his 15th goal. In addition, Lee Chung-yong (8 goals), Seol Ki-hyeon (5 goals), Ji Dong-won (2 goals), and Kim Bo-kyung (1 goal) engraved their names in PL history.

Hwang Hee-chan was also satisfied with his form this season. In an interview with the Shropshire star, he said, “I am proud of what I have achieved so far. I have scored 11 goals so far this season (10 in the PL and 1 in the EFL Cup), which is something to be proud of.”

“But I know there is still a lot of room for improvement, and I never want to be satisfied with my current state. I can’t say I’m 100% happy because I want to keep improving. I’m proud of what I’ve achieved so far and I don’t want to stop. “I want to continue to grow to new levels as much as possible,” he added.

There are two goals left to surpass Park Ji-sung’s record. Hee-chan Hwang said, “Honestly, it’s a huge motivation for me to break the amazing records that Korean players have set in the past. Even if I break that record, I can’t say that I have surpassed that record or become a better player than them. That’s not true. “He expressed respect.
