I had a generational change, but the director resigned… New worries of ‘Jeonbuk Jeonjeon’
The head left without completing the generation change.
The remaining Jeonbuk Hyundai squad is highly likely to face another change under the newly appointed coach. Jeonbuk’s 2023 season is still unstable.
Jeonbuk recently broke up with manager Kim Sang-shik. Coach Kim left Jeonbuk after resigning twice when it was judged that he could not see any further breakthrough due to poor performance.
After wearing the Jeonbuk uniform in 2009, coach Kim put an end to his 15-year long journey as a player, coach, and manager.

In addition to bringing in national striker Lee Dong-joon from the German Bundesliga, players such as Jeong Tae-wook, Jung Woo-jae, Kim Gun-woong, and Lee Subin were recruited.
In addition to this, top-notch young players from the K-League 2, such as Oh Jae-hyuk and Jeong Min-ki, were also brought in. In addition, foreign players with experience in the K-League and Asian stages, such as Jun Amano, Hafa Silva, and Andre Lewis, have been fully reinforced.

However, coach Kim’s power reorganization drive ended with his resignation after two and a half months this season. Athletes floated in the air. The team is tightly united inside and outside the club in a chaotic atmosphere, but it is unknown how the newly appointed coach’s style will match the players brought by coach Kim.
If a new manager comes, the whirlpool from Jeonbuk could be stirred up once more in the summer transfer market. Coach Kim also regretted the absence of an experienced midfielder right before being sacked.

In such an atmosphere, Jeonbuk will also play an away game against Suwon Samsung, which is in a ‘dongbyungsangryeon’ situation where the manager has recently been hardened and new manager Kim Byung-soo has come. This match is also the debut match for coach Kim in Suwon.
