Scout report
Joon-Ho Hong is a 32-year-old central defender at Cheongju, rated 17.5 overall by Field Insider's model. A seasoned veteran, he has been a rotation option this season (45% 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 Hong.
On the season, Hong graded 5 for current form (age-blind), on 0 clean sheets and 2.308 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 9 → 6). Over the 3 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2020/21.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 18. At 32 Hong is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 1.7 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2020/21 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
Output in context · Cheongju finished 12th of 14 · a relegation-threatened side
2.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume across 12 appearances. Doing that for a relegation-threatened side (12th of 14) 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 45% of available minutes — needs a settled run to prove the level.
- Age curve. At 32, both level and resale value are on the downslope.
- Level. Rates below a nailed-on top-tier starter on our model.
Outlook
Rated 17.5 overall — below regular-starter level. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.31 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.8× and falling).
