In response, the players of 'FC Ballard Dream' have issued a strong declaration: "We are different from before. You'll be surprised when you watch the game," they declared to their former mentor. Seo-gi from 'FC Ballard Dream' emphasized their determination, stating, "If 'Top Girl' bites the bullet and runs two or three steps further, we will bite the bullet even harder and run five or six steps."

Meanwhile, 'FC Ballard Dream's coach, Hyun Young-min, plans to pursue a high-scoring game with an aggressive playing style. The strategy involves leveraging the enhanced passing game of the 'Kyung-Seo-gi combo', unique set pieces, and daring game management to control the match.

The GIFA Cup, where seniors and juniors of the music industry clash for pride, promises an intense showdown. The fiery 'K-pop battle' on the field between 'FC Top Girl' and 'FC Ballard Dream' can be witnessed on 'Kick a Goal' this Wednesday at 9 PM.

Coach Choi Sung-yong is a renowned manager who led FC Ballard Dream to victory in the first SBS Cup. He also has experience promoting FC Top Girl to the Super League. His coaching prowess has been proven multiple times.
