Professional soccer K League 2 club Chungnam Asan and its head coach Lim Kwan-sik (51) are parting ways, just four months after he took charge as the club's fourth head coach in December last year.

Chungnam Asan announced on the 17th that it has decided to part ways with Coach Lim Kwan-sik due to his personal reasons.

Coach Lim Kwan-sik was appointed as the club's fourth head coach on the 17th last year but will leave the team after just four months.

However, the team's performance has not been poor. Under Coach Lim Kwan-sik, Chungnam Asan has accumulated 10 points (3 wins, 1 draw, 2 losses) in the first six matches of the season, placing them seventh.

Additionally, the team achieved various records, including its first-ever 13 consecutive matches with goals across the previous season and the current one, as well as its first-ever player to score in four consecutive matches (Eun Go-i).

Chungnam Asan did not provide further specific details, explaining only that the decision was due to the coach's personal reasons. It further added that it plans to appoint a successor as quickly as possible to minimize disruption to the squad and given that there are still many matches remaining in the season.

Coach Lim Kwan-sik stated through the club, "I am sorry that we could not continue pursuing the goals we shared together. I especially apologize to the players. Although I am stepping down from my role as head coach now, I hope we can work together again in the future."
