We hold a single season for Kim, so there's no year-on-year comparison to draw yet — the read above is this campaign only.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 42. At 20 Kim is still climbing toward his ceiling, and a market index of 8.8 reflects that trajectory.
Output in context · Pohang Steelers finished 9th of 12 · a lower-table side
2.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 2 clean sheets across 15 appearances. Doing that for a lower-table side (9th of 12) is harder than the bare numbers suggest: a back line under more pressure has to defend more often and protects fewer leads, so the volume — and any clean sheets — carry real weight.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 18% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 42.4 overall — developing / rotation level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.26 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). At 20 the trajectory points up — potential sits near its ceiling (98/100) and market value should climb as minutes and output follow.
