Lee Young Pyo will quit.....

South Korean international Lee Young-pyo said Tuesday he will retire before the 2014 World Cup. Lee said. "I will not only quit the national squad, but also will retire from my career as a player."Along with star midfielder Park Ji-sung, Lee has been one of the most favored members of the South Korean squad since the 2002 World Cup held on home turf. While his teammates at that time, such as goalkeeper Lee Woon-jae and forward Ahn Jung-hwan, never made it to the pitch during this year's tournament due to their waning abilities, Lee remained a significant axis of the team. The left fullback made 117 A-match caps, in an unmatched consolidation in his position. Lee, former Premier Leaguer with Tottenham Hotspur, made his professional debut in the local K-League in 1999 with Anyang Cheetahs, the predecessor of FC Seoul. He currently plays for Al-Hilal in the Saudi Professional League. His industrious performance captivated then national team manager Guus Hiddink before the 2002 World Cup, allowing Lee the chance to advance to bigger leagues, including the Dutch league's PSV Eindhoven where he made his overseas debut in 2003.

I think his decision-making will impact to team and form of team. His life will go down because he not only quit national squad, but also his job (soccer player). His income will be smaller. So, it is not a good decision for him and his team especially his country.
