Basically;



Park Yong-un (Coach Park) will be stepping down as 감독 (team director/manager) and remain at SK Telecom in an advisory role. After 4 years, he feels its time to reduce his work load after getting married. During his tenure, Park has taken SKT to four Proleague finals, winning two of them.



BoxeR will become the new 'head coach' (수석 코치, not 감독 though). However his fellow coaches will still help him out with various team decisions and what not.

Gamegene Profile Blog Joined June 2011 United States 8300 Posts #4 i wonder what kind of changes BoxeR will bring to the team. Coach Park brought a much much more rigorous training environment to the team when he was brought on. Throw on your favorite jacket and you're good to roll. Stroll through the trees and let your miseries go.

BreakerD Profile Joined March 2010 United States 158 Posts #16 Anyone else see this as a way to boost SC2 in SK rather than a smart move? I mean boxer is a coach not a team coach. Boxer seems to give off a player/coach aurora than head coach mentality. SKT should leave coach park alone he's been done great with SKT.

And what if Coach Park is the one who wanted to step down like is said in the interview? Should they force him to continue against his will?



I think BoxeR will do great, he's an awesome coach and I think he'll be very good in this position. And what if Coach Park is the one who wanted to step down like is said in the interview?

this is really minor news.



it would be retarded for them to replace a strong asset for the sake of having a headline at fomos for a day.



we don't know what goes on behind those closed doors, for all we know BoxeR is the greatest coach in the world and he's the single reason behind Rain's success. this is really minor news.it would be retarded for them to replace a strong asset for the sake of having a headline at fomos for a day.we don't know what goes on behind those closed doors, for all we know BoxeR is the greatest coach in the world and he's the single reason behind Rain's success.
