Koo Bon-seo (18), who once drew attention alongside Kim Ye-geon (18, Jeonbuk Hyundai) as a football prodigy, has now become a professional player.

Jeju SK announced on the 14th that it had signed Koo Bon-seo, an all-around attacking talent from Sinpyeong High School.

Koo Bon-seo is a former "football prodigy" who appeared as a coach on JTBC's football variety program "Let's Kick Together" in 2020 alongside Kim Ye-geon and others while playing for Cheongju FCK, drawing significant attention.

Afterward, he played for Suwon Samsung U15 team, Yeom Gi-hoon Soccer Center U15, and Ulsan Hyundai U18 team before continuing his career at Sinpyeong High School, eventually receiving a love call from Jeju SK and moving to the professional stage.

Koo Bon-seo was also recognized for his talent, having been selected as a participant in FC Bayern World Squad, an international youth project operated by Bayern Munich, for two consecutive years.

The club introduced Koo Bon-seo as capable of playing both attacking midfielder and winger roles, highlighting his ball possession ability, pressure-breaking skills, and advancing dribbling ability as strengths.

Club officials added, "We expect him to exert high influence during offensive plays based on his excellent ball control and technique in tight spaces," and noted that "he possesses strong kicking power for medium- and long-range passes, crosses, and shooting, enabling him to create threatening moments in various attacking situations."

Through the club, Koo Bon-seo expressed, "I am truly happy and honored to join Jeju SK. Although there is still much I need to learn, I will strive to grow by giving my best at every moment and become a player who brings joy and trust to Jeju SK FC fans."
