'Eternal Captain' Park Ji-sung returns as a commentator for the SBS World Cup after 4 years.
Ji-sung Park will be the main commentator of 'SBS Qatar 2022' with caster Seong-jae Bae and soccer commentator Ji-hyeon Jang at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, which starts in November.

Park Ji-sung is once again working with Bae Seong-jae, a 'recognized national team caster' who worked as a commentary duo four years ago.
He will also go out with Jang Ji-hyeon, who has commented on all EPL matches played by Son Heung-min, to provide a more in-depth commentary.
In addition, for this World Cup, Hyun Young-min, who gained fame as a saying maker in the SBS entertainment program 'Goal Strikers', also joined as an SBS commentator to form a splendid lineup.
In 'Goal Girl', he received a favorable response by not only a sharp analysis, but also a detailed explanation of the game with an exquisite wit.

"Especially, Ji-Sung Park is making great efforts as a commentator, collecting vast amounts of data and practicing commentary whenever possible, even in a busy schedule, in order to show a more evolved figure as a commentator. Please look forward to the explanation.”
