  • Seoul E-Land coach Kim Do-kyun is focused on promotion, not his potential 100th career win.
  • The team is preparing for a home match against Paju Frontier in the K League 2.
  • Seoul E-Land is currently third in the league standings, aiming to secure promotion.

Seoul E-Land manager Kim Do-kyun is prioritizing the team's promotion to the top league over personal milestones, including the potential for his 100th career victory. As the team prepares for a crucial home game against Paju Frontier in the K League 2, Kim emphasized that individual achievements are secondary to the club's ultimate goal.

"100 wins? That's not important," Kim stated firmly. His focus remains squarely on the upcoming match and the broader objective of securing promotion. Seoul E-Land currently sits in third place in the K League 2 standings with 40 points from 12 wins, 4 draws, and 5 losses. They face Paju Frontier, who are in 11th place with 24 points (7 wins, 3 draws, 11 losses).

The team's strong performance this season has positioned them as serious contenders for promotion. Kim's leadership and the players' dedication are key factors in their current standing. The manager's comments underscore a team-first mentality, driving the squad towards their shared ambition.

The match against Paju Frontier is a significant opportunity for Seoul E-Land to solidify their position and take another step towards promotion. The club's aspirations are high, and the focus is on consistent performance and achieving the desired outcome for the season.

100 wins? That's not important.
