After the game, Korean Air coach Tommy Tilikhainen commented on Jung Ji-seok’s condition, “It looks bad, but it’s hard to say anything because I’m not an expert in the field. He needs to go to the hospital and get tested.”
Jung Ji-seok underwent a thorough examination at the hospital on the 18th, and luckily received a finding that it was not a major injury. Korean Air members and fans who support Korean Air can now calm down their shock.
