Kim Sang-sik's Vietnam side win the Mitsubishi Electric Cup

The K League United Podcast returns this week for an international special, turning its eyes to to the Mitsubishi Electric Cup and looking at the progress of Korea managers abroad and how South East Asia is helping to salvage and shape their careers.

Helmed by former Jeonbuk Hyundai Manager Kim Sang-sik, the Vietnam National Team tasted glory in the ASEAN Championship over neighbours Thailand in a thrilling two-legged affair.
