The Asian Young Player of the Year for 2004, Park Chu-Young has become the latest darling of the South Korean media and fans.

The 20-year-old has already made an impact on the international stage, including scoring a vital last-minute equaliser in Tashkent against Uzbekistan in one of his three outings in qualification for this tournament.

The FC Seoul man, who represented his country in the World Youth Championships in Holland in summer 2005, has already made it clear he wants to move to Europe and an impressive showing at the World Cup will go a long way towards helping him achieve that.
