Lee Dong-kyung (27, Kim Cheon-sang-moo), who performed the best this season, smiled. Lee Dong-kyung had a busier year than anyone else in 2024. After all-time performances in Ulsan HD, he joined Gimcheon Sangmu 'military team'. He did not hesitate to conduct basic military exercises for five weeks. After deploying the squad, he immediately joined the team and continued his activities. He scored seven goals and five assists in eight games for Ulsan this season and five goals and one assist in 18 games in Gimcheon uniform. Lee Dong-kyung achieved a 'career high' He has achieved the most offensive points since his professional debut in 2018. Tim also laughed together. Ulsan won the K-League title for the third consecutive time. Gimcheon ranked third, the highest ever for a military team.
After finishing the special season, Lee Dong-kyung said, `This season has been very difficult. May-June (when I was at the training center) was very difficult"There are individual goals, but there are parts that (Kim Chun) has to gather in the team and do together." be aware of. A lot of fans came. I gained a lot of strength."
The view toward Gimcheon has changed a lot compared to the past. Playing in Gimcheon is no longer 'blank period'. Personal skills are considered a time for 'upgrade'. In fact, some players come to the military and wear the national flag for the first time in their lives, and after being discharged from the military, they go overseas. For Lee Dong-kyung, Gimcheon is also a valuable time to develop yourself.
Lee Dong-kyung said, `There have always been older brothers in the team. There are many older brothers in Ulsan, so I think I was in a position to follow them. There are appointments due to the nature of the military team, but I am older (in the team). In the process of preparing for the game with the players, he seems to have a little more maturity and paid a lot of attention for leadership. The director also told me that it was necessary.'
`I think it's natural that we have to make progress no matter what team we're on. In Gimcheon, there is a part where you can concentrate on soccer a little more. I think it will be better if I get what I can get and get discharged from the military. I gained a lot of physical strength, and I can also gain a lot of leadership with the players. I think there are a lot of challenges or developments in this team. I think it's important to develop and go out."
