He will be on medical leave and seek further treatment in Korea. He hopes to return to Ukraine after he recovers and is granted permission by the South Korean government."

In response, some netizens commented:

"What is up with this man, for real?"

"Why is he like this?"

"Wow, I guess he is returning alive after all."

"I really can't understand him."

"Didn't Korea warn him not to go?"

"At one look, people would think he was a soldier who fought for his country and got injured."

"Didn't he go there with the mindset of dying? Does he think war is some kind of child's play?"

"What is that photo? Lollll."

"Medical leave? Where is he requesting a medical leave from?"
