Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Hyun-Taek.
Judged on this season alone, Hyun-Taek graded 11 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 16th of 23 of the 23 full-backs in the K League 1, on 3 clean sheets and 2.773 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 9 → 11). Across the 3 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 43, top 14% of the 23 full-backs in the K League 1. At 24 Hyun-Taek is in his prime years, and a market index of 29.4 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2024/25 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
2.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 29 appearances. Going forward he chipped in 2 goals and 0 assists — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 43.3, Hyun-Taek carries the 3rd-highest potential of the full-backs in the K League 1 of 23 — though on just 29 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.77 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~29), then tapers with age. At 24, Hyun-Taek sits on 29.4, at or near its peak. The blue line is Hyun-Taek's projected Rating — 43.3 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
