Premier League<\/a>, and is targeting breaking into the first-team sooner rather than later.<\/p>\nThe 20-year-old striker made the switch to the Stadium of Light from Chunnam Dragons on Thursday.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am so satisfied to be able to come to a good club, a nice club in the world’s number one league,\u201d he told the club\u2019s official website.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am happy because I have a chance to challenge the biggest players, and that gives me motivation.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ji, who has already scored six goals in 11 internationals, spoke of his happiness at being able to join fellow South Koreans in the English league.<\/p>\n
\u201cI am so glad to be able to meet other Korean players on such a big stage, but there is no such excuse for the opponent. I will do my best to defeat them,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt will not be easy. I am enjoying the life and studying English. I hope I could be a member of this team within six months.\u201d<\/p>\n
Ji, 20, and fellow new signing Connor Wickham, 18, form part of a youthful, rejuvenated Sunderland frontline alongside Asamoah Gyan, as Steve Bruce continues to rebuild following the departure of Darren Bent in January.<\/p>\n
And the 6\u20192\u201d striker is looking to use his physical presence to stamp his authority on the league.<\/p>\n
\u201cAs a striker, I like to overwhelm defenders,\u201d he added.<\/p>\n
\u201cMy aim is to help the team get as many points as possible. That is what will give me satisfaction.\u201d<\/p>\n
This is not Ji\u2019s first spell in England, having spent a year on the books at Reading in 2007-08 without playing a first-team game.<\/p>\n
