3 goals in 24 appearances (0.13 per game) — light end product the role wants to see climb. Add 2 assists for 5 goal contributions in all.

Strengths

  • Final-third output. 0.65 goal contributions per 90 (0.39 goals, 0.26 assists) — productive for the role.

Watch points

  • Game time. Only 30.6% 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 35.9, Jae-Hyeon carries the 2nd-highest potential of the attacking midfielders in the K League 1 of 4 — though on just 24 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. In the final third he profiles as a genuine goal threat (0.65 goal contributions per 90). In the prime window — at or near peak market value, so the next two seasons are the ones to cash in or build around.
