Oh Ban-seok, who started his professional career in Jeju in 2011 and celebrated his 15th year as a professional, shows excellent ability to control the right to provide based on his tall height of 1m90, and has excellent accurate tackle and gritty physical fighting ability.
Oh Ban-seok, who graduated from Gangneung Jeil High School and Konkuk University and joined Jeju through a draft, did not play in his first year due to injury. Oh Ban-seok, who devoted himself to rehabilitation, made his debut the following year and showed impressive performances by consistently playing as a key defender and playing in 25 league games and 4 Korea Cups.
Since then, he has played more than 30 league games every season as Jeju's main defender and has been active as the team's center, including being appointed as captain in the 2015 season. In particular, he had his best year in 2017, winning the season's best 11 defenders category and being included in the final entry for the 2018 World Cup in Russia.

Oh Ban-seok is also famous for his love interest for director Cho Sung-hwan. Coach Cho Sung-hwan and Oh Ban-seok have been together as priests on the same team for a total of 11 years, six years in Jeju and five years in Incheon. Busan expects Oh Ban-seok to quickly melt into the new team as they know each other well and center the young team as a veteran.
By recruiting veteran defender Oh Ban-seok, who has a brilliant history, Busan is expected to add veteran experience and stability to the young team.
Oh Ban-seok made his impression on joining the team "I'm trying to act like a rookie." I joined a little late, but I'll do my best to quickly melt into the team and help it in the direction it wants to go" he said.
