Coach Yoo said "It's a hard promotion. I would like to thank Mayor Choi Dae-ho for giving me a chance even though I had a lot of difficulties, director Lee Woo-hyung and Bucheon coach Lee Young-min for being supportive. I want to honor the coaching staff and the players. Thank you to the fans for showing Anyang's hotness. I'm sorry that soccer comes before mother, wife, daughter, and family."
