Eo Jeong-Won is a 27-year-old full-back at Pohang Steelers, rated 35.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 45th of 153 on scout potential in the K League 1. In his prime years, he has been a rotation option this season (44.7% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.31 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Jeong-Won.
Judged on this season alone, Jeong-Won graded 19 — a solid campaign that ranks top 35% of the 26 full-backs in the K League 1, on 5 clean sheets and 2.308 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 17 → 19). Across the 4 seasons we hold, it's his best return yet.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 35, top 39% of the 26 full-backs in the K League 1. At 27 Jeong-Won is in his prime years, and a market index of 8.7 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2025/26 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Pohang Steelers finished 9th of 12 · a lower-table side
2.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 5 clean sheets across 30 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. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 44.7% 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 35.4, Jeong-Won carries the 10th-highest potential of the full-backs in the K League 1 (top 39%), and he is posting that for a lower-table side (Pohang Steelers finished 9th of 12) — individual numbers are harder to earn on a struggling team, so his underlying level likely sits a touch above the ranking. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions 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.
