It was the smile of Kang Sang-yoon (21, Jeonbuk Hyundai). Kang Sang-yoon has been a businessman for days. After establishing himself as a key midfielder in Jeonbuk, he was also selected as a member of the A national team. Until just a year ago, Kang Sang-yoon was renting at Busan I'Park and Suwon FC because there was no place in Jeonbuk. Kang Sang-yoon is exploding his potential by meeting coach Gus Foyet this season.
FIFA also gave a thumbs-up to Kang Sang-yoon's performance. Kang Sang-yoon ranked first in the K-League player 'Market Value' released by the International Football Institute (CIES) under FIFA, beating Jesse Lingard from Manchester United and Lee Seung-woo from Jeonbuk. Kang Sang-yoon's market value reached 3.6 million euros, or about 5.8 billion won. It was evaluated as a 'post-K-League class'. Kang Sang-yoon said "I learned the contents because people around me sent me a lot of links. I was really surprised, and honestly, I didn't even think about it.
Kang Sang-yoon asked back "Isn't it decided by one media?" and the reporters explained "I just knew for the first time."My eyes grew. Kang Sang-yoon "I didn't know I was worth that much. I'm thankful that I got that evaluation because the team is doing well. I feel like I have to do better and go up further."

Kang Sang-yoon is slowly walking his way. He added "It was hard because he joined Jeonbuk for the first time and couldn't play. I found a breakthrough through renting. Fortunately, I was able to play after returning. As it's going according to plan, I'm going to try harder to achieve my goal now." The goal is to participate in the World Cup and advance to the big leagues, just like other players.
Kang Sang-yoon is aiming to play in the 2026 North-China World Cup and the Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games next year. He "Both are important. I would be so happy if I could participate in both the World Cup and the Asian Games. We need to be competitive to do that." "You have to be more calm in an aggressive position, and you have to increase your on-the-ball ability to off-the-ball," he said.
He is also dreaming of entering Europe. Poet said, `I am 100% sure Kang has the talent to play in Europe"and fired back. Kang Sang-yoon said, `I think I can enter Europe if I have the ability to go out with the market value that I am currently evaluating. It's all motivated. As much as the amount of money came out, I'm thinking about showing it more and preparing it better."
