‘Handsome’, ‘Cool’, ‘Good body’ These are the exclamations of fans’ words for Seo Yo-seop (27), the Korean men’s golf star. However, he said he wanted to hear that he was ‘good at golf’ rather than such flashy impression reviews.

Seo Yo-seop, who won 2 wins in the season at the Korea Professional Golf (KPGA) Korean Tour last year and placed 2nd in the grand prize points, is making his final preparations ahead of the opening of the new season. His goal for this season is to win the prize money prize as well as the grand prize he missed last year. Seo Yo-seop is currently preparing to go to Oman to compete in the Asian Tour International Series, which starts on the 9th after completing training in Thailand.

Before the start of the new season, Seo Yo-seop revealed his thoughts on training and his determination for this year through a phone interview with JTBC Golf. He said, “I trained for two weeks from mid-January at a golf course called Royal Gems in Thailand, and the weather was good, so the training went well.

“The Asian Tour starts the season earlier than the Korean Tour. So, I think being able to go to the tournament a month or two earlier is a big advantage for the players. “
