Suwon Samsung manager Lee Jung-hyo, who won the opening two consecutive games, stressed, "There are many things to improve in the future."

Suwon won 1-0 in the second round of the "2026 Hana Bank K League 2" at Paju Stadium on the 7th. Suwon, which beat Seoul E-Land 2-1 in the opening game earlier, beat Paju on the same day, winning two consecutive games.

Paju, which celebrated its first home opener in the K-League in the club's history, recorded an unusual crowd of 12,000 won as a new team in the second division. Among them, there were about 4,000 away fans in Suwon, and they showed enthusiasm to visit the stadium with nine buses.

Suwon, which led the game but rarely scored a goal, secured the victory with Kim Ji-hyun's header winning goal 15 minutes into the second half. Kang Hyun-mook, who broke through the left side, crossed and Kim Ji-hyun shook the net with a header.

Kim Ji-hyun, who missed the PK earlier, scored a goal to ease the burden on her mind.

At a press conference after the game, coach Lee Jung-hyo said, " (I won), but the content was improved. It was a shameful game for Suwon Samsung fans who came all the way to Paju, he said. "I will work more with the players to improve it."

When asked, "What specifically needs to be improved?" he said, "We play smoothly in the build-up, but finishing seems to be a chronic problem. It is also a problem for Korean soccer, but all Korean leaders will sympathize with this. I have no choice but to have more meetings and training in this part," he said.

Suwon boasts the strongest offense among the second division teams. In the future, let's say, "I think I'll play a lot of locked games" against Suwon, and "I'm continuing to practice with plans A, B, etc. I think I can score as many goals as half of the practice, but now it's about 50%. I think I can score a goal if the players are not in a hurry," he said.

Regarding Kim Ji-hyun, who scored the winning goal even after missing the PK, he praised Kim Ji-hyun, saying, "Kim Ji-hyun is a player who supports me and the coaching staff a lot because of his great training attitude." Coach Ma Cheol-joon recommended it as a starter, and he liked it the most when he scored a goal. I wish I could buy a cup of coffee," he added.
