What the hell is up with him recently? The guy was top goalscorer of the 2010 season with 22 goals and multiple hat-tricks... but now he's lucky just to get a good amount of minutes of playing time these days. Yeah, I know he's had an injury but still... Half the 2011 regular season is over, and he's only played nine season games out of the fifteen so far, and only five of those involved him getting the full 90 minutes. He's scored only three goals in the league, four if you count the one from the K-League Cup match against Daejeon. Is our Korean "Cristiano Ronaldo" of Incheon in a slump? Is Huh Jung-Moo to blame? Or is it just the results of hubris? What are you thoughts?
LOL, yeah I heard he was disappointed with his lack of playing time in the Asian Cup. As a Yoo Byung-Soo fan, I'll say this: Cho Kwang-Rae can go to hell.

Uh... WTF? -.O Honestly, his "style" not being in trend anymore doesn't really answer the question of why he's slumping recently. And if being top goalscorer of a season with a couple of hat-tricks and amazing free-kicks are not in "style" anymore, then generic Korean football fans never had good taste to begin with. Or still obsessed with PCY. Ridiculous, I tell ya. Yoo Byung-Soo deserves better.

The second article you posted mentions that it's more than his buy-out which was at 1.5M USD. It's probably not much more.
So what exactly is his plan here? Cash in early and then go to the Army? I guess he's completely given up on the KNT...
He seems pretty frustrated with the match-fixing accusations that have been thrown on him. I'm not sure if he's completely innocent, but it's clear he wants to leave Korea.
