Kim Dong-hyun (born 20 May 1984) is a former South Korean footballer. He was banned from all football-related activities because of his involvement in match fixing.

Playing career

[edit]

Nicknamed the "Korean Vieri", Kim was expected to became a main member of the next generation at the South Korea national team after leading the national under-20 team to the AFC Youth Championship title in 2002.[2] He had dropped out of university to join J1 League club Oita Trinita in 2003, but was not regarded as a regular at the club.[3] He joined K League club Suwon Samsung Bluewings after being released from Oita in 2004.[3] He had 10 goals and 6 assists in 55 matches for two years, helping Suwon win a K League title and a Korean League Cup title.[4] He received an offer from Primeira Liga club Braga in December 2005.[4] He made 13 appearances at 2005–06 Primeira Liga and scored a goal against Rio Ave.[5] His performance dissatisfied Braga,[6] and he returned to K League the next year after being on loan to Russian club Rubin Kazan for half a year.[7] He played at Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma for two years, but continuously did not make an impression.[8] Released by Seongnam, he moved to Gyeongnam FC in 2009 and enlisted in military team Sangju Sangmu Phoenix the next year.[8][9]

On 1 June 2011, Kim was arrested on charges of accepting bribes from brokers and attempting to fix their games in the middle of his mandatory military service at Sangmu.[10] He was in the center of the 2011 South Korean football match-fixing scandal, introducing brokers to other players.[11] On 17 June 2011, his activity as a footballer was banned by the K League Federation.[12]

Personal life

[edit]

On 25 May 2012, Kim and former baseball player Yun Chan-soo kidnapped a woman and stole her car.[13] On 17 January 2013, Kim was sentenced to three years in prison.[13]
