The Incheon club announced on the 10th that it will hold Kim Jun-yeop's official retirement ceremony in a home game against Chungbuk Cheongju FC in the 7th round of the 'Hana Bank K League 2 2025' at Incheon Football Stadium on the 13th.
Kim Joon-yeop, who made his professional debut by joining Jeju United in 2010, made his name known through various teams in the K-League. After starting his career as a side striker, he turned to a side defender and then showed his true value and established his position as a player.
Kim Joon-yeop joined Incheon in 2020 and became a leading player in the dramatic residual drama by playing a key side defender from the first season, and shared a historic moment of advancing to the AFC Champions League for the first time since the club's foundation in the 2022 season. Having devoted himself to the team by playing not only the sides but also the central defense, he impressed his fans during his five seasons in Incheon. The way he played without sparing himself in each game and moved between attack and defense was worthy of the title of 'manager of the side'.
Kim Joon-yeop scored 10 points and 21 assists in 310 professional games. (9 points and 19 assists in 288 league games, 2 playoff games, 1 league cup game, 1 point in 12 Korean Cup games, 2 assists in 7 AFC Champions League games) In particular, Incheon had the most brilliant period of its career, scoring two points and seven assists in 106 games (two points and seven assists in 100 league games, three Korea Cup games, and three AFC Champions League games).
