Moon Yoo-hyun of Korea University will follow his elder brother Moon Jung-hyun. After selecting the MVP of the college basketball league championship game, he will join the national team as a college student.
Moon made the shortlist for the 2025 FIBA Asia Cup Windows-2. Of course, Lee Jung-hyun will fill the spot where he left the national team due to a knee injury, but he is the only national college student.
As soon as Moon Yu-hyun entered Korea University, he showed off his outstanding skills from his freshman year. A Hyundai Mobis official drew attention as "Little Yang Dong-geun" to the extent that he recalled his days as a player while watching Moon Yoo-hyun's play.
Ahn Joon-ho, head coach of the men's basketball team, also said, "I hope it will grow into a 'second Yang Dong-geun'."
Moon Yoo-hyun follows the path walked by his older brother, Moon Jung-hyun. However, the time is a little faster.
Moon Jung-hyun was named MVP of the championship game after leading Korea University to an integrated championship in 2022, when he was a third grader.
Moon Yoo-hyun took the lead in Korea University's victory this year, a second-year student, and also lifted the MVP trophy of the championship game.
Moon Jung-hyun played for the Hangzhou Asian Games last year, when he was in the fourth grade, after being included in the preliminary list of the national team in his third grade.
Moon Yoo-hyun, like Moon Jung-hyun, accumulates his only experience as a college student in his second year of national representation.
Considering that Moon Yoo-hyun is growing rapidly, and Moon Jung-hyun has dropped out of the national team due to an injury, the brothers will soon be able to play together in the national team. 안전놀이터
When Moon Yoo-hyun said he could be selected for the national team with Moon Jung-hyun someday, he said, "If such a day comes, it will be a very historic day. My goal is to play for the national team with my brother in six years," adding, "There are many coaches, coaches, and helpers after that, so if I work hard, it will be possible."
When asked why he set the period to six years, Moon Yoo-hyun said, "It's because I have to go to a professional and prove it," adding, "No matter how well I do in college, I can't dream of becoming a national team member if I don't do well in a professional team, so I set it to six years."
"I watched all the games when my brother was selected for the national team as a college student. I felt strongly that I was shrinking and discouraged," Moon said. "I thought if I were selected, I should not do that. I should do my best with confidence."
Moon Jung-hyun and Moon Yoo-hyun played together for a short time at Korea University last year. Sooner or later, we will see brothers exchanging passes in the national team.
