My Take
What draws me to Kang Min-soo is the quiet dignity of the center back's craft. At 184 cm he was built for the role, and the resume reads like a tour of Korean football royalty, Chunnam Dragons, Jeju, Jeonbuk, Suwon and Ulsan, plus caps for both the Olympic and senior national sides. Defenders rarely get the headlines, but holding the last line for that many elite clubs takes a temperament few possess. That he moved into coaching afterward feels right to me. Some players are wired to teach the discipline they spent a career living, and I suspect he is one of them.
