Kim Moon-Hwan is a 30-year-old full-back at Daejeon Citizen, rated 23.5 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 89th of 148 in the K League 1. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (29.6% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 2.04 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Moon-Hwan.
Judged on this season alone, Moon-Hwan graded 9 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 20th of 23 of the 23 full-backs in the K League 1, on 3 clean sheets and 2.041 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's broadly in line with last season (Season 8 → 9). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has drifted down, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 24, 11th of 23 of the 23 full-backs in the K League 1. At 30 Moon-Hwan is into the veteran stage, where the age curve weighs on the projection, and a market index of 8 reflects that trajectory.
Past his 2022/23 peak — the recent trend is downward, so buyers are paying for what's left, not what was.
2.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 24 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 6) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume. Going forward he chipped in 0 goals and 1 assist — a useful bonus from the back.
With a Rating of 23.5, Moon-Hwan carries the 11th-highest potential of the full-backs in the K League 1 of 23. Defensively he reads as moderate defensive volume (2.04 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1× now → 0.7× projected in three years).
Generated from Field Insider's rating model · AI-written analysis to follow.
The gold line is market value — an index (not €) blending rating, age and league. It climbs through the early 20s, peaks around ages 23–27 (~16), then tapers with age. At 30, Moon-Hwan sits on 8, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Moon-Hwan's projected Rating — 23.5 today — recomputed at each age, so it follows the same rise-and-fall as a career matures and declines. Solid = up to today; dashed = projected.
