Choi Minho said, "Choi Yong-soo's brother was my gym teacher in high school. He shoots just like his brother".

When Choi Yong-soo was asked if his brother had told him about Choi Minho, he said, "I heard he played soccer very well. If he played soccer, I think he would have been as good as Ahn Jung-hwan in looks and skills".

Choi Minho said, "I wanted to play soccer, but my father didn't want me to. He even wanted to leave the house because of me". His father is Choi Yoon-gyeom, coach of the Busan I-Park team.

Choi Minho added, "I asked him why he was so against me and he said if I was as good as Son Heung-min then he would agree, but I wasn't good enough".
