'Genius Midfielder' Lee Kang-in (Paris Saint-Germain)'s uniform was used for a different purpose.
PSG players celebrated their victory in the locker room after winning 3-1 at home in the 26th round of the French Ligue 1 in the 2024-2025 season against Olain Fikde Marseille at Parc des France in Paris, France on the 17th (Korea time).
In the common 'victory shot', it was the No. 19 jersey held by fullback Nunu Mendes and pointed at by captain Marquiños with his finger. It is Lee Kang-in's uniform. Luca Hernandez is holding a pair of pants with number 19 engraved on them.
Lee Kang-in, who played for about 14 minutes after replacing him at the end of the second half of the day, is clearly staring at the camera with a bright expression in the back row of the picture while wearing a uniform.
Therefore, it can be inferred that PSG players used Lee Kang-in's No. 19 for other purposes.
Lee Kang-in himself wrote 'Answer'. Lee Kang-in wrote '+19' along with the photo in his personal SNS post after the game. '19' was '19'.
PSG, which is on an unbeaten run in the league this season, has 21 wins, 5 draws and 68 points with eight games left, widening the gap with second-place Marseille (49 points) to 19 points. Even if they lose six games in the remaining games, they can win the championship.

PSG won the title by nine points against second-place Monaco (67 points) with 76 points in the league in 2023-2024, the first season of Lee Kang-in's joining. At the current pace, it is expected to far exceed last season's points. If they win the remaining eight games, they will reach the 90th place in six years after the 2018-2019 season (91 points).
PSG also continues its first 'unbeaten win' challenge in Ligue 1 history. Lee Kang-in is at the center of history.
Apart from the reduced position, Lee Kang-in, who had a 'best week' through the Champions League quarterfinals and the Le Clasique derby victory over Marseille, is scheduled to return home on the 18th to convene the national team. South Korea will play Oman (Koyang) on the 20th and Jordan (Suwon) on the 25th in the 7th and 8th Asian qualifiers for the 2026 North-China World Cup.
