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

With a Rating of 13.3, Min-Gwang carries the 22nd-highest potential of the centre-backs in the K League 1 of 28. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.12 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.7× and falling).
