Born in 2006, Yang Min-hyuk is a hit product this season. He challenged the K League 1 stage as a junior in his third year of high school. Yang Min-hyuk started the opening game and made a help 35 seconds after his debut. He also scored his debut goal in the second game. He scored eight goals and four assists in 25 games of 'Hana Bank K League 2 2024'. He broke all the youngest appearances, scores, and help records of the Gangwon club in history. Gangwon turned professional early in recognition of Yang Min-hyuk's talent.
The fans were enthusiastic about Yang Min-hyuk's performance. In a fan vote in Coupang Play ahead of the Coupang Play Series against Tottenham, it ranked first among all candidates with a final 20.8% of the vote. He was selected as a "couple young man" and met Tottenham as an "enemy".
Tottenham manager Enze Postecoglou also had high expectations. At the official press conference held on the 30th, he watched the Scout team with considerable interest. I got to be with a player who is young but has considerable talent. I'm looking forward to seeing the future performance. I'm also looking forward to joining the team as soon as possible and watching the player grow."
In the first game in front of Tottenham's teammates, team K-League players promised Yang Min-hyuk 'support shots' Earlier, Lee Seung-woo said, "(Yang)I think I should make Min-hyuk's stage." From the new player's point of view, the coach said, `I think we need to support them so that they can feel that they are good players and create the part that they can do well.'

Yang Min-hyuk also made a combination play with Yoon Do-young in the 21st minute of the first half. Yang Min-hyuk took the ball from the midfield and handed Yoon Do-young a long pass. He made one turn in the midfield to beat Royal. A minute later, he received Lee Dong-kyung's pass and tried to shoot. However, because it was an urgent team for this game, the players did not have good chemistry. There were some minor mistakes, and he showed some signs of slowing down in the physical fight. I couldn't see the expected scoring as well. Yang Min-hyuk, who played 45 minutes in the first half, retreated to the bench at the beginning of the second half. Coach Park replaced all the lineup at the start of the second half. Yonichi, Ilyuchenko, Cesinha, Andersson, Oberdan, Italo, Wandelson, Jung Jae-hee, Kang Tu-ji, and Hwang Moon-ki Hwang In-jae stepped on the ground. All the foreign players who were watching from the bench throughout the first half were put in.
