Just a rough translation, nothing too deep. I'll leave it for others to translate fully.
Basically;
Park Yong-un (Coach Park) will be stepping down as 감독 (team director/manager) and remain at SK Telecom in an advisory role. After 4 years, he feels its time to reduce his work load after getting married. During his tenure, Park has taken SKT to four Proleague finals, winning two of them.
BoxeR will become the new 'head coach' (수석 코치, not 감독 though). However his fellow coaches will still help him out with various team decisions and what not.

| i wonder what kind of changes BoxeR will bring to the team. Coach Park brought a much much more rigorous training environment to the team when he was brought on. |

| Cool for BoxeR. Was hoping he would go back to help SlayerS out, but doesn't look like this will happen. |

I'm really going to miss Coach Park's ballsy teamleague calls.  |

| Anyone else see this as a way to boost SC2 in SK rather than a smart move? I mean boxer is a coach not a team coach. Boxer seems to give off a player/coach aurora than head coach mentality. SKT should leave coach park alone he's been done great with SKT. |

And what if Coach Park is the one who wanted to step down like is said in the interview? Should they force him to continue against his will?
I think BoxeR will do great, he's an awesome coach and I think he'll be very good in this position. |

this is really minor news.
it would be retarded for them to replace a strong asset for the sake of having a headline at fomos for a day.
we don't know what goes on behind those closed doors, for all we know BoxeR is the greatest coach in the world and he's the single reason behind Rain's success. |
