Korean professionals use TNT FC for training during career gaps

South Korean international midfielder Park Yong-woo recently completed a month of training with TNT FC to regain match fitness following an injury. The club, which operates in Yangcheon-gu, serves as an unofficial training hub for established professionals between contracts or recovering from injury. Notable players including Ki Sung-yueng, Lee Chung-yong, and Hwang Hee-chan have utilized the facility to maintain conditioning alongside the club's younger roster. This environment provides the professionals with structured professional training while offering TNT FC players experience training alongside high-level talent. Park has since returned to his K League club, Ulsan HD, after finishing his preparation period. The arrangement highlights the role the independent club has developed within the Korean football over the past several years.
