Korean UFC featherweight division fighter Chan Sung Jung, better known as "Korean Zombie," has spoken out on his social media about the end of his career.
I haven’t achieved everything, but I’ve achieved enough, and wanting more in my head is like greed, so I’m trying to stop. I feel like I’ve received undeserved love compared to what I’ve done, so I’m grateful to everyone. Now I don’t think I will live a life of being judged and compared anymore, so I feel free, relieved, and scared.
