"I entered Tongyeong on January 2nd and it's only been two months until today."

Jeonju National University coach Chung Jin-hyuk delivered the secret to winning his first championship. Jeonju National University sweated in Tongyeong without going back after finishing the tournament in January, and achieved a valuable result of winning its first Spring Festival.

Jeonju National University defeated Incheon National University 1-0 in the final of the Hansan Battle of the 61st Spring University Football Federation held at Tongyeong Public Stadium in South Gyeongsang Province on the 1st. Jeonju National University won the championship for the first time in the competition, which began in 1965. Jeonju National University, which was the runner-up twice (2008, 2021), finally achieved its long-cherished dream of "winning."

Coach Chung Jin-hyuk, who led the team to the top, said, "I missed the championship in Tongyeong four years ago, and I'm so happy that I won my first championship," adding, "It seems to be raining of blessing. Thank you so much for the support of many members, including school officials and the president. I'm grateful that the players have struggled since the first day of the qualifying round."

Midfielder Jang Hyun-soo played in the final. He opened the scoring with a powerful left-footed shot at the eighth minute of the second half when the two teams were tying 0-0. "He has strong left foot strength in the side. The players at Incheon National University prepared a lot, and they emphasized a lot how to get out of (the opponent)."

Jeonju National University has not left Tongyeong since the 21st College Football Championship in January. Although it was a part of the Lunar New Year holiday, it sweated a lot for the tournament in Tongyeong. Usually, they come back to Tongyeong before the competition begins, but unusually, the team trained by returning the holiday season.

"I participated in the freshman and sophomore competitions without any specific combinations. We had holidays after the competition, but we continued to have meetings with the coaching staff about our concepts and formation here without going on vacation," coach Chung Jin-hyuk said. "We prepared enough through exhibition matches with the high school team. Through the exhibition matches, our scoring ability has improved a lot. Winning the first match 4-0 against Yonsei University, we gained a lot of confidence knowing that our training makes sense. It was the driving force behind us to win the championship."

Jeonju National University scored 21 points and allowed four goals in seven matches from the group league to the finals of this year's championship. They showed impressive performance in both offense and defense. They also displayed strong forward pressure and sharp side attacks in the match against Incheon National University. This victory is all the more valuable because they topped the university stage with clear soccer colors.

"Jeonju University has never had a chance to win a penalty shootout at the semi-finals every year," coach Chung Jin-hyuk said. "We overcame the crisis by winning the penalty shootout against Korea University in this year's event. We asked them to thoroughly prepare for the training process and enjoy the game at the stadium. In that case, the team has achieved good results and wins and losses are determined. I told our players that when they know how to enjoy the game on the ground, good results come out." 안전놀이터
