On the 22nd, the Jeonbuk club promoted coach Kim to be the sixth coach. As a result, coach Kim will take the lead in Jeonbuk, following the feat of winning the K-League for two years in a row and’Double (winning two competitions)’ in the 2020 season.
The club revealed the reason for the appointment, “Director Kim has an excellent ability to command and run the team, and to embody the team’s philosophy better than anyone else.”
After joining Jeonbuk in 2009 and playing an active part as a player, coaching since 2014, coach Kim, who has been in Jeonbuk for 12 years, is considered a leader who knows Jeonbuk better than anyone else. From the first year he moved from Seongnam to Jeonbuk in 2009, he played a pivotal role as a captain and led Jeonbuk to the first league championship. From 2014, when he retired, he worked as a coach by assisting coach Choi Kang-hee.
He played a role as a bridge between players and the command tower with humor and’brothers’ leadership’. I will do my best to become a team.”
