  Hwang Sun-Hong - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Hwang Sun-Hong (born July 14, 1968) was a South Korean football player; he announced his international retirement following the end of the 2002 World Cup tournament.
A dangerous striker who excelled in putting the ball into the net, Hwang was South Korea’s most consistent forward for much of the past decade, and his absence due to injury played a major part in the team’s poor showing in France 98.
Hwang was South Korea’s outstanding player in the 2001 Confederations Cup, scoring against Mexico and Australia, as well as against Germany in the 1994 World Cup.

Veteran striker Hwang Sun-hong gave the Koreans a 1-0 lead with a 26th-minute strike and midfielder Yoo Sang-chul rocketed a right-foot drive from the edge of the area in the 53rd minute for the clincher.
Hwang, 33, opened his fourth World Cup campaign with a bang, connecting with a neat cross from Lee Eul-yong and driving a left-footed volley beyond Dudek's outstretched hands.
Ahn, who replaced Hwang in the 51st minute, miscued a shot to the left of goals in the 79th minute that would have had Dudek in trouble and didn't get enough power onto a free kick in the 85th minute to cause much trouble.

 World Cup 2002 - ABC Sport
Hwang Sun-Hong is one of a growing band of Korean players to have stamped his authority on Japan's J-League.
Now 33 and appearing in his fourth and almost certainly last World Cup final, Hwang's guile and goals in the J-League with Kashiwa Reysol earned an unlikely recall to the national side last year and now he is heading toward 100 caps.
Hwang first made his name when he scored eight goals for South Korea against Nepal at the Asian Games in 1994.

 Ambivalence and Duality   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-23)
Hwang was born to a Christian family in 1915 near Pyongyang, a center of Christianity in early modern Korea.
Irwôl (The Sun and the Moon, 1962-65) is a portrait of a paekchông in urban Seoul.
From his earliest stories, Hwang has been concerned with the conflict between the traditional obligations that Korean society--often in the form of the family--imposes on the individual, and the Western notion that the individual is capable of exercising free will in responding to those obligations.

Hwang Sun-hong, a veteran of the 1994 finals, scored a tremendous opener after 26 minutes with a low left-foot volley after Lee Eul-Yong played a perfectly-weighted ball in from the left flank, the ball flying past Jerzy Dudek in the Polish goal.
It was Hwang's 50th international goal in his 98th appearance for his country which came just a month before his 34th birthday.
Hwang left the action just four minutes after the restart and Ahn Jung-Hwan took his place up front - but the change did not interrupt the Korean flow as Yoo, who played and scored at France 98, blasted home the second.
