Managerial career

After his playing career, Park managed Yukong Elephants and Pohang Steelers in the K League. He led Pohang to two consecutive titles in the Asian Club Championship. Park also managed South Korean national youth teams in 2003 FIFA World Youth Championship, 2005 FIFA World Youth Championship, and 2008 Summer Olympics.[1]

Park was the head coach of Myanmar and Myanmar under-23s, until his dismissal on 16 December 2013, two weeks before his contract ran out. His sacking was caused by a 1–0 defeat to Indonesian under-23 team in the group stage of the 2013 Southeast Asian Games. Myanmar hosted the competition, but was eliminated before the knockout stage due to this defeat.[2][3][4]
