Seol Young-woo's 2024-2025 season, the main player of the Korean national team, is ending very successfully.

Zvezda, where Seol Young-woo plays, won 5-3 in the 29th round of Serbia's Super Liga against Voivodina in 2024-2025 at Carazorje Stadium in Novisad, Serbia on the 30th (Korea time). With this victory, Zvezda crossed the ninth ridge to win the league.

As soon as he finished the A-match in Korea, Seol Young-woo immediately started. Zvezda allowed two runs in a big shake early in the game. The atmosphere was subdued because all the losing processes were not good. However, Zvezda, who quickly scored a comeback goal, opened a counterattack in the second half.

The game was at square one with a 2-2 balance at the beginning of the second half. Seol Young-woo was the main character of the come-from-behind goal. In the 6th minute of the second half, when Seol Young-woo went high, the pass was accurately put in. Seol Young-woo pretended to cross and tricked the defender before hitting the net with a powerful left-footed shot. He scored additional attack points in three games after scoring help against Belgrade in the 26th round.

After Seol Young-woo's come-from-behind goal, Boyvodina followed again, but Zvezda, who gained momentum in the last minute, scored consecutive goals to complete a 5-3 come-from-behind victory.

Seol has shown tremendous growth since moving to Zvezda. Just by looking at the record of attack points, it is different from the past career. He has six goals and six assists in 33 games. It would not be strange to trick him as a winger, not a fullback. Originally, he was a full-back with excellent balance, but after moving to Zvezda, he properly opened his eyes to the offense.

Seol can confirm his league victory in the next round. The current runner-up, Partizan, drew this round, widening the point gap with Zvezda to 23 points. The maximum number of points Partizan can accumulate in the remaining schedule is 24. Even if Zvezda accumulates two more points in the future, the championship will be confirmed regardless of the remaining games.

It's not strange to have a championship party if you only get one point in the next round. The ㅤㄸㅒㅤ is that even if Partizan wins all of them and Zvezda loses all of them after one draw, the rankings of the two teams are unlikely to change. Zvezda has a whopping +82 goal difference. Partizan is only +27. It is an impossible mission to close the gap of 52 goals in eight games.

Seol Young-woo has shown such good performance this season that he may be interested in the big leagues. Seol Young-woo is a multiplayer who can play left and right fullbacks. Born in 1998, he is now in his prime, and the gold medal at the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games has solved the military problem.

Expectations are bound to grow over whether a new European big league Korean fullback can be born. Since Lee Young-pyo, South Korea has not been able to produce a fullback who has played in the big league. Will Seol Young-woo be able to continue the full-back lineage of the main players in the big league, which was cut off.
