Kim Jung-woo (KoreanScript error: No such module "Lang".; HanjaScript error: No such module "Lang".Template:Category handler, born 9 May 1982) is a former South Korean footballer.

Club career

Kim was playing for military team Sangju Sangmu Phoenix to perform compulsory military service when participating in the 2010 FIFA World Cup, and his low salary (0.95 million per year) during the military service was the talk of fans before the match against Argentina which had one of the highest earners Lionel Messi.[1]

Kim became the highest-paid player in the K League after moving to Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors on a three-year deal in January 2012.[2]

International career

Kim was part of South Korean under-23 team in 2004 and 2008 Summer Olympics.

Kim represented South Korea in the 2007 AFC Asian Cup. He scored Korea's winning goal against Indonesia and converted the decisive spot-kick in Korea's quarter-final penalty shootout victory over Iran. However, his penalty miss in the shootout against Iraq meant that South Korea went out in the semi-finals stage.

In the 2010 FIFA World Cup, Kim played a pivotal role as a holding midfielder for the South Korean team's advance to the round of 16. Despite rising interests from European clubs, he left to continue serving his country in Gwangju Sangmu.

On 22 March 2019, Kim retired through an official retirement ceremony before the match between South Korea and Bolivia at Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium.[3]

Style of play

Kim was nicknamed "Bone Jung-woo" due to his skinny build, but he had good stamina and positional sense. He took charge of center midfield with Ki Sung-yueng in the national team under manager Huh Jung-moo. Kim showed great work rate and defense while Ki concentrated on passing.[4]
