However, despite consistent rehabilitation, symptoms of paralysis from the lower part of the body began to appear as an aftereffect of the accident, and the condition worsened to the point where daily life without a caregiver was impossible. Eventually, he officially announced his retirement on November 8, 2023.
On October 18, 2023 it was reported on Jeju United's official channel that while riding in a car with team mates, he was involved in a car accident caused by a drunk driver.
