Outlook

With a Rating of 12.3, Seung-Gyu carries the 24th-highest potential of the goalkeepers in the J1 League of 31 — though on just 14 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. A rotation minutes keeper carrying the gloves this season. Veteran phase — a short-term, lower-fee proposition as both level and value decline (0.6× and falling).

Market valueRating

Solid = now · dashed = projected

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 (~5), then tapers with age. At 35, Seung-Gyu sits on 1.4, past its peak and easing. The blue line is Seung-Gyu's projected Rating — 12.3 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.
