Yeom Ki-hoon, who debuted in 2006, is literally a living legend.
He recorded 77 goals and 110 assists over 17 years, leading the career assists, and also holds the record for the most long-term free kick goals with 17 goals.
However, last season, which predicted the end, he changed his mind to play for one more year as the team went all the way to the relegation playoffs and failed to raise any offensive points.
Yeom Ki-hoon plans to challenge not only the team championship, but also the first K-League record of 80 points and 80 assists with three goals left.
