Bucheon FC1995, which is trying to make its first K League 1 stage since its foundation, succeeded in reinforcing its power by recruiting two players from representatives of each age group.

Bucheon announced in a press release on the 6th that it has recruited striker Eodam (19), a former U-19 national team member, and center back Kim Jong-min (25), a former U-23 national team member. Bucheon signed a three-year contract with Eodam until 2028, and Kim Jong-min signed a one-year contract until 2026.

Eodam, who was born in 2006, is a new striker who graduated from Cheonan Jeil High School and is a freshman at Incheon National University. It is evaluated that it combines 186cm of physical condition with speed and front-line space penetration capability. He contributed to the runner-up in the 61st Spring University Football Federation match last year and was listed on the first call-up list of the U-19 national team in 2024 when he was in high school.

Bucheon coach Lee Young-min said through the club, "It can be used as a 22-year-old resource and has a high potential for growth with both speed and power."

Eodam said, "It is an honor to start my first professional stage in Bucheon, which I have dreamed of for a long time," adding, "I will do my best to make my debut, my first goal."

Kim Jong-min, born in 2001, who joined the defense, is a 191-centimeter-tall center back. After graduating from Gimcheon University, he joined Jeju United (currently Jeju SK) in 2022, he moved to Gimpo FC and scored two points in 35 league games. When he was a student at Gimcheon University, he played as a top U-League defender and was selected for the 2022 U-23 national team.

Kim Jong-min's strength is his right to provide, his powerful defense in competition, and his build-up ability using both feet. Head coach Lee Young-min said, "We expect him to show strength in physical fights with foreign players due to his large and powerful stature."

Kim Jong-min said, "I will do my best to make Bucheon a strong team in K League 1."
