6 clean sheets in 23 appearances (26% of games). Playing behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 12) means a more protected goal, so the read is about command and distribution as much as raw shut-outs.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 48% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 34.9, Bum-Keun carries the 3rd-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the K League 1 (top 24%). A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.2× now → 0.9× projected in three years).
