Scout report
Kim Seung-Sub is a 29-year-old central midfielder at Jeonbuk Motors, rated 26.4 overall by Field Insider's model, ranking 89th of 153 on scout potential in the K League 1. An experienced operator, he has been a fringe squad member this season (23% of available minutes). His defensive output reads 1.63 tackles, blocks and interceptions per 90. Below: strengths, watch-points, market-value outlook and the latest transfer news on Seung-Sub.
Judged on this season alone, Seung-Sub graded 4 — a workmanlike campaign that ranks 35th of 43 of the 43 central midfielders in the K League 1, on 0 goals, 0 assists and 1.634 defensive actions per 90.
Year-on-year, that's a drop on last season (Season 16 → 4). Over the 6 seasons on record his form has trended upward, peaking in 2022/23.
On long-term talent our Rating reads 26, 28th of 43 of the 43 central midfielders in the K League 1. At 29 Seung-Sub is in his prime years, and a market index of 3.6 reflects that trajectory.
Below his 2025/26 peak but holding a solid level — the platform for a return is there.
Output in context · Jeonbuk Motors finished 3rd of 12 · an upper-table side
1.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — light defensive volume, with 3 clean sheets across 30 appearances. Behind an upper-table side (3rd of 12) 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.
Watch points
- Game time. Only 23% 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 26.4, Seung-Sub carries the 28th-highest potential of the central midfielders in the K League 1 of 43 — though on just 30 appearances this season, so the standing rests on a small sample. Defensively he reads as light defensive volume (1.63 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90). Experienced and reliable, but the value curve is easing (1.1× now → 0.8× projected in three years).
