Seoul E-Land FC strengthened the back door by recruiting Hwang Jae-yoon (23), a former U-23 national team gatekeeper, through a trade with Suwon FC.

E-Land announced in a press release on the 10th that it had concluded a trade agreement to receive Hwang Jae-yoon instead of sending goalkeeper Lee Yoon-oh (27) to Suwon FC.

Hwang Jae-yoon, who will be wearing E-Land uniform this time, has excellent physical conditions of 187cm and 83kg. The goalkeeper is considered to be his greatest strength based on his fast speed and reaction speed. In particular, it is evaluated as a resource that can contribute to the instantaneous counterattack deployment by using strong kick power to switch from defense to offense.

Hwang Jae-yoon, who went through Jinwi High School and Korea University, started his professional career by joining Jeonbuk Hyundai in 2024, and has steadily gained adult stage experience by leading the 2024 K4 league championship as a main member of Jeonbuk B team.

Through this recruitment, E-Land will form a young and promising goalkeeper team with an average age of 24.7 years, leading to Min Sung-joon, Um Ye-hoon, and Hwang Jae-yoon. Hwang Jae-yoon, who joined the team, said, "It is an honor to join E-Land, which I think is the closest team to promotion," adding, "As the most important thing is the team's victory, I will continue to develop in the competition and become a player who will support promotion."

Hwang Jae-yoon has already proved his potential on the K League 1 stage. Hwang Jae-yoon, who was put in to fill the injury gap of the main goalkeeper in the match against Gangwon FC, who played for Suwon FC in September 2025, defended his team's 1-0 victory with a thrilling defense throughout the game. At that time, he recorded his first clean sheet since his professional debut, but he showed his concentration by blocking a decisive shot at the end of the second half and succeeding in the second save that followed immediately.

His performance in the national team by age is also remarkable. Hwang Jae-yoon was selected to the final list of the 2026 AFC U-23 Asian Cup held earlier this year, gaining experience on the international stage, and is at an age where he can participate in the 2026 Aichi and Nagoya Asian Games finals. In an interview, Hwang Jae-yoon said, "I take great pride in representing the country," adding, "I want to continue to grow and play for the national team without complaining."

Seoul E-Land, which is showing off its solid defense by allowing only one run in five official games, will try to win its second consecutive season against Busan I-Park at Mokdong Stadium on the 14th.
