Joo Min-gyu, who left Ulsan HD, is flying high at Hana Citizen in Daejeon. Born in 1990 when he was the two-time top scorer in the K League 1, he scored four goals and was named the top scorer early on.

Ulsan, however, does not feel the absence of its resident regulation either. Heo Yul, who was born in 2001, has established himself as a new killer of Ulsan with a perfect start. Heo scored his first multi-goal in the fourth round of "Hana Bank K League 1 2025" against the Jeju SK Wyverns at Munsu Football Stadium in Ulsan on Monday, spearheading Ulsan's 2-0 victory. After scoring a goal in front of the local resident regulation on March 23, Heo resumed his scoring spree after two weeks.

It was a perfect goal. Heo Yul, a tall striker with a height of 1m93, scored the net with a header from Lee Jin-hyun's corner kick in the 32nd minute of the first half. He solved the problem with his feet in the 25th minute of the second half. He pushed Um Won-sang's ground ball cross with his left foot to seal the victory. Heo is a native of Kumho High School, a youth team of Gwangju FC. He made his professional debut in Gwangju in 2021, and spent four seasons there. In the last 2024 season, he scored two goals in 32 games, moving between the front line and the center back.

Since moving to Ulsan this season, he has scored three goals in four games, dreaming of becoming the first top scorer in the pro league. Compared to his record of three goals and three assists in 33 matches in 2023, he has achieved a "career high" in scoring in the K League 1.

"I'm glad that I came back with a victory because I prepared well for the match against Jeju Island for a week after Hyundai's Derby," Hur said. "I thought that if I play with good players while training in Ulsan, I will have many chances. Personally, if I prepare well, I expected many goals," Hur said. "The training focused on the closing part helped me. It is true that playing as a striker after experiencing center back was a great help. However, it was a great experience to be with good coaches and players from the winter training in Ulsan."

The "trio" from Kumho High School, which leads to Um Won-sang, Heo Yul and Lee Hee-kyun, is Ulsan's keyword this season. It became a reality as Lee Hee-kyun and Heo Yul moved their nests from Gwangju to Ulsan. Um Won-sang, born in January, is a "fast 99-year-old" and is the same age as Lee Hee-kyun. Heo Yul is three years his junior. Um Won-sang helped Heo Yul score for the first time. "There were a lot of similar scoring scenes during training. I thought Won-sang would raise it. It was a score that he ran into while sprinting," he said. "Won-sang said 'congratulations' and 'thank you.' If I give you an assist next time, I will do a shoe washing ceremony with him."

I don't have an early feeling, but when I brought up the "scoring king story" to Heo Yul, he smiled, saying, "If you play like this, you'll get a lot of points. If you don't get complacent, score every game, and prepare to win, I think you'll be in a good position at some point."

"It is the dream and goal of every player. If I run to win the title and show good performance, I will come naturally. That opportunity is not given to anyone. I just do my best in my position," he said calmly.

Ulsan has secured three consecutive wins and three clean sheets (no goals lost). Cho, who missed three consecutive K-League 1 games due to fractured nose, also came back on the day wearing a face shield.

"There is no comfortable game. Overall, I wasn't comfortable because the players were good, but I wasn't nervous," Ulsan coach Kim Pan-gon said with a smile, adding, "My poor performance is as high as I expected, but I also have advantages in my feet. It's nothing special that I scored today. I think I will continue to do better." 먹튀검증

"Not allowing a goal is an important factor in my football philosophy. There is a risk with aggressive soccer, but there should also be safety measures. Jeju did its best at the last minute, but Kim Young-kwon led the team to defend it stably, and Cho Hyun-woo did a good job without feeling that he went out and came in anytime," he stressed.
