I couldn't stand the attitude of the leaders of Chengdu Rongcheong to head coach Seo Jung-won.

It was on the 17th that the conflict between coach Seo Jung-won and Chengdu was known externally. Chinese media Wang Yi said on the 17th that Chengdu was caught up in an unexpected 'infighting situation' Yoon Hyo-jin, wife of coach Chung-doo Seo Jung-won, reported on his personal SNS that the club is isolating Seo Jung-won.

Director Seo Jung-won's wife said on her personal SNS, `Is it the least conscience a person should keep to a person who has devoted himself and devoted himself to the team at every moment for the past four and a half years and has not even a little understanding and good faith? Do you want to cut off your hands and mouth and eventually make them say 'I'll go out on my own, please save my life?'" he expressed his anger.

Since then, rumors of discord between coach Seo Jung-won and the Chengdu club have been widely reported through Chinese media. Director Seo Jung-won also finally opened his mouth. In a press conference ahead of the match against Tianjin Jin Manhu "There is a problem now. I put up with it for six months, but I can't take it anymore as a director. I can't just watch," he said, revealing the club's actual situation.

Coach Seo Jung-won said, `Since the winter, the club has not trusted the coaching staff. Dismissed the medical staff and interpreters. The coaching contract was signed in March and there were few decisions I could make"I was angered by the club's unilateral decision.

Romulo, who appeared with head coach Seo Jung-won, also criticized the club's move. Romulo is a Brazilian player who challenged the K League in the 2017 season on loan to Busan I'Park. He completely moved to Busan and played until the 2020 season and became a disciple of coach Seo Jung-won. He was loved by Korean fans for his good performance and friendly dialect during his time in Busan.

Romulo "Today, I'd like to talk a little more about the team's preparation. Our team is facing a pretty difficult situation right now. The difficulties stemmed from the outside, not inside the stadium. I think our team is very professional and responsible, whether it's players or coaching staff. However, the problem is that the high-ranking members of the club lack respect for us,' he said.

Continuing, Romulo "What's very unfortunate is that what we've built up over almost five years is not being recognized. Only anyone who truly prides themselves on this uniform will know this. Currently, relations between people inside the stadium and people outside the stadium have been cut off. The club must realize that the many efforts we have put in over the past five years must be recognized"The conflict between the team and the leadership, including the coaches, is intensifying."

Director Seo Jung-won is the creator of Chengdu's present. As soon as he took office, he promoted the club in China's top-tier league (second division) to the Super League (first division) and made it at the top of the league. Coach Seo Jung-won is indispensable to Cheongdu, but something ridiculous that bothers coach Seo Jung-won seems to be happening at the club. Even the players are protecting coach Seo Jung-won.
