Seo Jin-soo started in the sixth round away match of Hana Bank K League 1 2024 against Incheon United at 4:30 p.m. on Saturday, April 6 (Saturday) and became the K-League's top 100 players. Since his debut in the K-League in 2019, Seo has played 76 games (10 goals and six assists) in the K-League 1 and 24 games in the K-League 2 (two goals and three assists).
He is already in his fifth year as a professional. His sweat is truly a valuable record.
Seo Jin-soo, a former member of the Jeju U-18 youth team, won the top scorer (9 goals) at the 42nd National High School Football Championship held in Gimcheon, North Gyeongsang Province in March 2018, leading the Jeju U-18 team to win the championship. He was so talented that he was a midfielder until he was a student at Ulsan Hakseong Middle School that he had high expectations even before entering the professional league.
Even on the professional stage, Seo continued to improve. On July 10, 2019, his first year as a professional player, he scored a assist hat trick against Seoul. In the history of the K-League, Seo Jin-soo is the only teenage player to achieve a assist hat trick. Since the 2022 season, when he returned from military service in Sangmu, Gimcheon, he has grown as one of the pillars of Jeju's offense.
Notably, as a former member of the Jeju Youth Team, he holds the record for the most appearances (a total of 64 matches) that he played in Jeju. It is fair to say that this is the best result that Jeju, which launched its youth team in 2010, has achieved. Currently, players from Jeju Youth Team, including Jeong Tae-wook (Jeonbuk Hyundai) and Lee Dong-ryul (Seoul E-Land), are active in the K-League, but Seo Jin-soo has continued to display his full potential with orange color.메이저사이트
It is also becoming a great model for the youth team's juniors. Yoon Dae-sung, the Jeju U-18 youth team coach who watched Seo's growth last season while serving as Jeju's tactical coach and is now leading the Jeju U-18 youth team to discover new talent, said, "Seo's performance is truly an inspiration to the youth team's juniors. I hope he will continue to serve as a role model for them."
Seo also had a unique sense of responsibility. After the match, Seo said, "I always play with a sense of responsibility that I was a native of Jeju Youth. I want to leave orange footprints everywhere on the ground. So I hope it will be a good milestone for the youth who will follow me. I will not be satisfied with this. I will continue to grow and improve to become a player who can give many examples to my juniors."
