The 29-year-old has yet to make an official announcement on his future with the national team but is believed to be giving serious to thought to bringing an end to his commitments with the Taeguk Warriors.

South Korea are one of the favourites to lift the Asian Cup for the first time in over 50 years but will need to progress from a tricky Group C that also contains fellow 2010 World Cup finalists Australia.

And Park is determined to give his all for his country in what he hopes will prove to be a memorable tournament.

"It will be a very special Asian Cup for me," he said.

"I do not have much time left in the international game. This makes me want to win the Asian Cup more than ever before."

South Korea kick off their campaign against Bahrain on Monday before then tackling Australia on January 14 and finally India four days later.

The game against the Socceroos will arguably go a long way to determining who advances as winners of the group, but the clash holds no fear for Park.

"They play a European style of football but we have many players who are based in Europe so we are not afraid of them," he added.
