Munich posted a picture of Kim Min-jae riding in the kiln and smiling broadly on its official Instagram at 2 p.m. on the 6th in Korea. It borrowed Korean traditional culture to celebrate Kim Min-jae's first Bundesliga victory.
The club congratulates Minjae on his first Bundesliga victory. The passion and dedication of 27 Bundesliga matches and 2289 minutes gave Munich a great boost this season. First trophy lifted as a Munich player, congratulations from the bottom of my heart!' I wrote. Kim Min-jae, who won the Italian Serie A at Naples in the 2022-2023 season, became the first Korean to win a title in more than two of the four major European leagues.
Munich confirmed its early victory on the 5th with two games left as Leverkusen, its competitor, drew 2-2 in the 32nd round of the German Bundesliga in the 2024-2025 season against Freiburg. As of the 32nd round, No. 1 Munich has 76 points and No. 2 Leverkusen has 68 points.
With this, Munich regained the Bundesliga trophy it gave to Leverkusen last season for the first time in two years. The number of wins has been increased to 34.
The fact that Harry Kane won his first professional career title two years after joining Munich drew great attention from all over the world. Kane did not hide his excitement at the championship party with his best friend Eric Dier and other Munich players.

Kim Min-jae devoted himself to the team this season, recording the second-most playing time in the team after Jojua Kimmich (4197 minutes). It was known that he played with calf and Achilles tendon pain, causing regret. Last month, the FIFPro devoted itself to mentioning Kim Min-jae as an example of a player's abuse.
It is undeniable that he has made several big mistakes, but as Munich coach Bangsang Kongpani said to wear out his mouth, every player makes mistakes. It's hard to say that I did something big enough to be deleted from the poster.
Was he conscious of the controversy. Munich posted a post about Kim Min-jae two days after confirming the championship. Even that, there was an error in the content. Munich initially described Kim Min-jae as the first Korean to win the Bundesliga and then modified it to the first trophy lifted as a Munich player. Jung Woo-young (Unyon Berlin) seems to have missed the fact that he won the Bundesliga as a member of Munich in the 2018-2019 season.
Kim Min-jae confirmed the Italian Cerier A title for Napoli in May 2023, exactly two years ago. At that time, he immediately posted a poster on his personal SNS to commemorate the victory produced by the Napoli club. "We are the champions of Italy. I am very happy and honored to be with you on this historic achievement. Congratulations to all the fans, colleagues, and staff. I want to share this joy with everyone who supports Naples. Grazier, Naples!," he even expressed his feelings about winning the championship.
However, Kim Min-jae has not posted anything related to winning on social media. The last posting related to Munich was when he scored the winning goal in a European Champions League match against Paris Saint-Germain in November last year. Is it a 'decision signal' as reported by Germany's multiple media outlets? According to Germany 'Sky', Kim Min-jae is currently getting the attention of Chelsea, Newcastle, and Juventus.
