Bucheon FC1995, which will challenge the K League 1 for the first time since its foundation, has significantly strengthened its side power by recruiting Shin Jae-won (28), the winner of the K League 2 Best 11 defense category in the 2025 season.

Bucheon officially announced the news of recruiting Shin Jae-won through a press release on the 2nd. According to the club, Shin Jae-won's contract period is three years until 2028.

Shin Jae-won, who will wear the Bucheon uniform, said through the club, "It's a great honor to come to Bucheon. We will help the team to challenge the K League 1 stage and try to go higher," he said.

Shin Jae-won, who faced Bucheon at Seongnam FC, his former team, said, "Bucheon, which I met against, was always tricky because it was a team with good organizational power and passionate fan support. Now, as a Bucheon player, I will repay that support," he said.

Shin Jae-won played in 39 league games as a wingback position for Seongnam in the 2025 season and achieved a career high with 10 assists. With his vigorous activity and accurate crosses, he was named in the K League 2 Best 11 defenders category after the end of the season and was recognized as a league-leading side resource.

Shin Jae-won, who is known as a special wing on the domestic stage, is also well known as the eldest son of K-League legend Shin Tae-yong.

Shin Jae-won, who went through Hakseong High School and Korea University, has been a promising player since his days in the U-16 national team. He led the university king of kings in 2017 and scored 10 points in 12 games in the U-League in 2018. Since his professional debut at FC Seoul in 2019, he has gone through Ansan Greeners, Suwon FC, and Seongnam, recording 5 points and 16 assists in 111 K-League games.

Shin Jae-won is a multiplayer who can play both wing forward and wingback. It has a bold dribble breakthrough and bold shooting ability, especially based on its sharp kick power, providing threatening options even in set-piece situations. With the addition of Shin Jae-won, Bucheon will be able to further strengthen its tactical flexibility unique to coach Lee Young-min.

Lee Young-min, the head coach of Bucheon, said, "He is a proven player with a lot of help in the league last season. He expressed his expectations, saying, "My excellent mobility and cross ability will be a great boost to the team's side."

Earlier, Bucheon even brought central midfielder Yoon Bit-garam and succeeded in reinforcing the midfield. Yoon Bit-garam, who is in his 16th year as a professional, is a veteran with 67 points and 55 assists in 435 league games. Yoon Bit-garam, who is also the winner of the 2011 Asian Cup Iran match, will take the center stage of the team based on his wide field of view and sophisticated pass ability.

The Bucheon team, which continues its new season plan through successful recruitment, will leave for the first winter training camp in Chiang Mai, Thailand in January and begin to distinguish between jade and stone.
