FCAnyang's Yoo Byung-hoon suddenly missed the post-match press conference.

On the 29th, Anyang drew 1-1 against Bucheon in the 26th round of the 2026 Hana Bank K League 1 held at Bucheon Comprehensive Sports Complex.

As a result, Anyang, currently ranked sixth in the league, recorded 8 wins, 10 draws, and 8 losses (34 points).

From Anyang's perspective, this was not a bad result. They secured one point on a difficult away trip to Bucheon and managed an unexpected equalizer thanks to a critical error by the opposing goalkeeper Kim Hyun-yeop after falling behind 0-1.

Most importantly, Yoo Byung-hoon reached his 100th K League match in this game.

In such a meaningful match, he did not even lose, yet he refused to attend the post-match press conference.

A club official from Anyang who entered the press conference room on behalf of Yoo Byung-hoon stated, "Manager Yoo Byung-hoon said he would accept the fine."

When asked about the reason for Yoo Byung-hoon's absence, the official replied, "It is likely due to his team's performance."

According to the Korea Professional Football League tournament guidelines, clubs, players, and coaches may be fined (500,000 won or more) if they fail to conduct interviews or attend official press conferences.
