On long-term talent our Rating reads 42, top 27% of the 19 central midfielders in the K League 1. At 24 Sang-Jun is in his prime years, and a market index of 10.2 reflects that trajectory.

Output in context · Bucheon FC 1995 finished 9th of 12 · a lower-table side
1.98 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 24 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 30.4% 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 41.5, Sang-Jun carries the 5th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the K League 1 of 19 — though on just 24 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.98 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Approaching peak years; value is still building (price multiplier 2×) with the best seasons likely ahead.
