Seongnam also strengthened its side offense by recruiting Pohang Steelers striker Kim Bum-soo on loan. Kim Bum-soo started his career with the K5 League Dongducheon One Team in 2020 and then went through the K7 League Dongducheon TDC and the K4 League Seoul Jungrang Football Team. Since then, he has attracted attention by joining K League 1 Jeju United in 2022. In 2023, he moved to Ansan Greeners and served as the team's ace for two seasons. Ahead of this season, he joined the Pohang Steelers through a free contract (FA). Currently, he has 7 points and 7 assists in 76 games in the K League. In particular, it attracted attention for its unique history of coming up to the K League 1 stage through the K7 and K5 leagues.

Kim Bum-soo is considered a player who has strength in dribbling using fast speed. In addition, he has already played in K League 2, so he is expected to quickly melt into the team's power due to his high understanding of the league and low burden of adaptation.

Seongnam FC said, `Kim Bum-soo is a player who can show a threat to the opponent's defense by showing excellent mobility and penetration ability in counterattack situations.' `In particular, it is expected that it will greatly contribute to the team's power by providing various attack options by freely moving between the left and right sides.'", he explained the background of the recruitment. Kim Bum-soo, who expressed his expectation for the new challenge, said, `I'm happy to play for a team with a long history of Seongnam FC,' adding, `I'll adapt quickly based on my experience in K League 2 and make my best use possible for the team to perform well
