West Ham midfielder Cho So-hyun has opened up about what life is like in South Korea since she returned home during the coronavirus crisis.

The 31 year-old is currently unable to interact with her family due to the enforced government isolation measures.

But Cho insists she and everyone around the world needs to do their best to stick to the rules in order to protect lives.

She said: “I’m back home at the moment with my family, which is nice for me. They are happy that I have come back, but we can’t stay together at the moment because I’m in a two-week isolation period.

“Two weeks is a long time. I’m staying at my mum’s home, but I have to eat, sleep and train alone. I had been doing that when I was in London, and my family prepared everything for me for my isolation.

“It’s weird. I’m home but I’m not seeing my family. We can’t share anything like dishes, towels or laundry. The government rules are that I have to be isolated for two weeks. I’ve got nine days left and I need to follow these rules to keep my family safe. We all need to do that at the moment.”

The Women's Super League season is currently suspended indefinitely due to the coronavirus pandemic.

However, the FA recently revealed they remain hopeful they can complete the season by the beginning of August.

West Ham currently sit eighth in the WSL table and are in little danger of being relegated, but remain seven points adrift of Manchester United in fourth.
