  • Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.

Outlook

With a Rating of 35.4, Jeong-Won carries the 7th-highest potential of the full-backs in the K League 1 of 15 — though on just 23 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.51 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.
