Cho Kyu-sung, who fired an injury return shot, predicted an upward trend with a scoring shot for two consecutive games.
Cho Kyu-sung played as a substitute in the ninth round of the Super Liga in the 2025-2026 season at MCH Arena in Henning, Denmark, on the 21st (Korea time) and scored a net in extra time in the second half to contribute to the 2-0 victory.
Cho Kyu-sung in place of Aral Simir in the second half, starting 0-0. When the ball bounced off the defense in the sixth minute of extra time in the second half, Brumado finished it with a shot. When the ball saved by the opponent's goalkeeper bounced off, Cho Kyu-sung shook the net by pushing it back with a shot without hesitation at the gate. It was a goal scene where Cho Kyu-sung's unique positioning and concentration on the ball stood out. With Cho Kyu-sung's net goal, Mitwillan led by one point over AGF (17 points), which played one less game.

Cho Kyu-sung announced his return with his first run since returning from injury in the last game. In the third round of the 2025-2026 season Denmark Cup, he scored a netting goal against AaB (Allborg BK) at Allborg Portland Park in Allborg, Denmark. At that time, Cho Kyu-sung shook the net in the 34th minute of the second half when Edward Chiloopa finished with a right-footed shot from the right side of the opponent's penalty box.
The score was Cho Kyu-sung's return shot in 493 days after scoring against AGF on May 12, 2025. Cho Kyu-sung underwent knee surgery after the 2023-2024 season, and complications later occurred, and he had to spend more than a year on treatment and rehabilitation, not on the ground. It was the worst crisis I could not imagine as a soccer player.
In an interview with the Korea Football Association (KFA), Cho Kyu-sung also said, `I was lying in the hospital for a month after surgery and lost 12 kilograms of weight. I got painkillers three to four times a day, and I kept waking up at night. It was the most difficult time of my life,' he recalled.

Cho Kyu-sung, who arrived on the field again after overcoming the dark injury tunnel, reported his first score in just four games, and then scored in two consecutive games, signaling that the Korean national team's main striker has returned. Even as head coach Hong Myung-bo, Cho Kyu-sung's revival is a welcome performance that can add options to the front line of the national team. Cho Kyu-sung has already scored two goals at the 2022 World Cup in Qatar, proving his competitiveness on the World Cup stage.
Cho Kyu-sung, the main character of the 'human victory', which gained momentum in earnest, and the front-line striker, who the Korean national team boasted, endured the pain and was ready to fly again.
