Busan IPark overhauled its offense through a trade.
Busan announced on Thursday that it has made a trade with Seoul E-Land to send Park Jung-in and receive Kim Jung-hwan. Kim’s number is 11.
Born in 1997, Kim is considered a flanker with excellent dribbling and penetrating abilities and colorful technique. He also stands out for his hard work and diligent play.
Kim joined FC Seoul in 2016 after graduating from Baek Amjoong-Shingalgo, but was not given much playing time at the time. In 2018, he moved to Gwangju FC, where he was consistently used by then head coach Park Jin-seop. In three years, he scored 10 goals and provided six assists in 56 games, helping Gwangju win the 2019 K League 2 title.바카라사이트
In 2021, he joined Seoul Eland FC, where he performed well in his first year with three goals and one assist in 19 games, and the following year, in 2022, he was a key resource for the team with six goals and four assists in 37 games. Busan said of Kim, “This season, he has appeared in 12 games and has not scored a goal,” but added, “He is reunited with coach Park Jin-seop in Busan and is expected to showcase his offensive abilities.”
“I’m not used to changing teams so suddenly,” Kim said, “but my teammates, manager, and coaches are helping me a lot.”
In addition to Park Jin-seop, Kim will be reunited with Lim Min-hyuk in Busan. Kim joined FC Seoul at the same age as Lim Min-hyuk. In 2018, the duo moved from Seoul to Gwangju together.
They both left Gwangju ahead of the 2021 season and joined Busan this season. When asked if Lim Min-hyuk had contacted him, Kim said, “There was no contact,” adding, “It was good to see him after a long time, and it was good that we were as comfortable as we were yesterday.”
“I’m half worried and half excited, but I hope I can quickly integrate into the coach’s soccer program, win a lot of matches, and play a lot of fun soccer,” Kim said, adding that he hopes to improve further in Busan.
