Choi Ye-hoon, the Gimcheon commerce secretary, seems to be at a loss for his successors to join.

Choi Ye-hoon, born in 2003, was from Busan I'Park and joined Gimcheon in April last year to fulfill his duty of defense. Along with Hong Wook-hyun, who was born in 2004 quickly, and Lee Seung-won, who is scheduled to be discharged from the military on the 3rd of next month, he was the youngest player in Gimcheon and was nicknamed "Youngest Corporal" until the deployment of Yoo Sun, Park Se-jin, and Kim Joo-chan's squad for the 10th term.

Not only the youngest but also the opportunity to play in the K-League has increased significantly compared to the previous season, and Choi is enjoying a happy year. Choi, who was evaluated as "not yet young" to endure the pressure from the K-League 1 last season, has not played even a single game over the years. As a young player, he was under constant stress, and since this year's winter training, he has worked with a determined mindset and caught the eye of coach Chung Jung-yong.

Choi played his 10th game of this season as a starter at the 16th round home game (0-1 loss) between FC Seoul and Hana Bank K League 1 2025 held at Gimcheon Stadium on Sunday. Choi, who left-backed instead of Cho Hyun-taek, displayed stable defense and sharp crosses, drawing admiration from home fans.

Choi Ye-hoon, who had an interview with Sportal Korea before the game, said, "I prepared hard for the winter season because I couldn't play in a single game last season. Fortunately, the coaching staff seems to have given a good impression. Although I have the advantage of the U-22 card, I am happy that I can participate in the game," adding, "I personally trained physically a lot, and as I trained with good players, I think I naturally developed some areas."

Choi Ye-hoon's competitor for the position is Cho Hyun-taek, the "national team" who will be discharged from the military in mid-April. "I'm in the same position as Hyun-taek, and I've known him since I was young. I'm trying to look like Hyun-taek, who is improving as I play every game, as a junior," Choi said.

Choi Ye-hoon, the 9th player, will be discharged from the military in October and will return to his original team, Busan I'Park. Regarding this, he said, "There are still a lot of discharge left, so I want to perform well until the end in Gimcheon," adding, "The head of the power reinforcement office, who brought me to Busan, sometimes contacts me and asks me about my physical condition or evaluates my performance. After returning, of course, I want to give a big boost to promotion." 메이저사이트

The 9th Gimcheon Period was known as the "twisted military number" that was hard to find. Since he has been the youngest for nearly a year and a month, he is done talking. "If it's long, if it's hard, it's been a difficult year," Choi said. "Since I'm the youngest until my age, I had a lot of things to do, but the older brothers helped me a lot. I have nothing to do with training for the successor because my classmates are holding me tight. Seeing (Lee) Kun-hee is five years older than me and speaking formally made me feel that I have been appointed," he said with an even more relaxed smile.
