“I still can’t believe it.”

FC Anyang defender Kim Dong-jin (32) is indispensable to the team. While playing as a left-sided defender, he also boasts of his attack instincts. Coach Yoo Byung-hoon also used Kim Dong-jin as a winger during the season. He once played as a striker in college.

Moreover, after captain Lee Chang-yong left the team due to injury, he even kicked the captain’s armband. As one of Anyang’s veterans, he also contributed to strengthening the team’s atmosphere by making voices both inside and outside the stadium.

After confirming his promotion at Bucheon Stadium on the 2nd, Kim Dong-jin said, “We’ve had a hard time since the winter, so I’m so happy to get compensation. It finished on the road, but there will be a lot of spectators at home, so I think we should prepare for a good finale.”

In his third season in Anyang, he finally achieved promotion. He played in 32 matches this season, scoring five goals and two assists. “I still can’t believe it,” he said, smiling. “I think I will not realize it until next year.”

It was not easy. Anyang went on offense against Bucheon on the day, but failed to score a goal. As the promotion was confirmed even if the team drew a match, Anyang did not lose a point against Bucheon until the end. “Last season’s Busan I-Park was also in a good situation,” Kim said. “If you try to draw passively, it could have had adverse effects. Let’s play a winning game by pressing the front line. He played hard from the front, and I think he won the game on his own.” 스포츠토토

There was also a crisis. Anyang lost its third straight game after taking the lead. Since then, it has revived to remain undefeated and is now over. “We lost three straight games and lost due to minor mistakes. The important thing was for us to regain confidence when we win as soon as possible. We wanted to have a lot of meetings among the players and trust each other. The mood has changed since the victory against Busan,” Kim said.

After the promotion was confirmed, cheers and tears crossed. Many fans shed tears of emotion, and coach Choi Ik-hyung also shed tears. Kim Dong-jin emphasized, “I was relaxed. Anyang is going to the first division for the first time since its foundation. I think it took too long and I think it’s the tears of joy.”
