Park Hang-seo tenure at Kanchanaburi FC
Entities: Thai League 2 · Eastern SC · Kanchanaburi FC · Lee Jung‑soo · Park Hang‑seo
Overview
In July 2026, South Korean coach Park Hang‑seo was appointed head of Thai League 2 club Kanchanaburi FC. The club, aiming for promotion to Thai League 1 within two years, began its pre‑season preparations.
Later that month, during a friendly against Hong Kong’s Eastern SC, Park entered the pitch after his players were repeatedly fouled. He confronted opposition staff, pointed at coaches and players, and made mocking gestures despite his assistant’s attempts to restrain him. The incident quickly spread on social media, drawing criticism and adding pressure on Park, who was also under scrutiny from South Korean officials reviewing the post‑World Cup 2026 period.
The two snapshots together trace Park’s appointment and the early controversy surrounding his conduct while leading Kanchanaburi FC.
