Well considering players like Soulkey can improve so much with coaching help, a coach who refuses to use assistants for so long obviously fails at his job. Treating players harshly and putting so much pressure on them often times has the opposite effect of what was intended. They feel like they have to succeed *now*, and if they don't they lose all confidence. Many of these newer players are just kids, some not even in high school yet.

You're joking right?
Korean children/students as well as other children in asian countries are a lot tougher than children in Euro/American nations.
The pressure to do well in school permeates all aspects of their lives
At home, they are not fed unless they do well in school
They attend school and additional acadamies for 14+ hours a day
A common maxim in korean in "if you study untill 4 (in the morning) you will go to university, but if you study untill 3 you will no"
Some of these players work best under pressure,
Just becuase you and many others cant deal with the heat does not mean others cannot
And the Coach of Hanbit is KNOWN in the pro community for being a kickass coach
From hanbit came such stars such as NaDA, Reach, Boxer, Yellow, IntotheRainbow
