Former national team striker Yoo Byung-soo (37, Hwaseong FC), who is fighting cancer, left a touching message to soccer fans.

Hwaseong FC and Incheon United faced off in the sixth round of Hana Bank's K League 2 2025 at Hwaseong Gyeonggi Town on the 5th.

On the day, Hwaseong striker Yoo made a surprise appearance and greeted his fans in the stands. He stood in front of his fans in Incheon. Incheon belongs to his former team. Since debuting professionally in Incheon in 2009, he scored 22 goals in 2010, ranking top in the K-League. As a result, he played as a striker for the Korean national soccer team. However, he was suspected of being involved in match fixing in 2011. Yoo maintained his innocence, but had to leave the K-League. 메이저놀이터

However, unfortunate news has spread. Yoo said he was diagnosed with blood cancer last year and started treatment, revealing that he has been suffering from cancer. He also promised to return to the ground in good health.

On this day, Incheon fans cheered on Yoo Byung-soo by posting a plan card saying, "Yoo Byung-soo is strong." In addition, Incheon fans posted a post on social media with messages such as "I can do it, Yoo Byung-soo" and "I wish Ronaldo a good recovery in Wolmido," along with Yoo Byung-soo greeting at the stadium.

Yoo Byung-soo also shared fans' posts on his SNS to express his gratitude.

Meanwhile, Incheon won the match 1-0. Lee Dong-ryul scored the first goal in the 41st minute of the first half. Team defender Min Kyung-hyun received a red card at the end of the second half, but focused until the end to secure victory.
