Timeline

1970

Kim Byung-ji (born 8 April 1970) is a former football goalkeeper who played for the South Korea national team as well as several clubs in the K League.

He was noted for his unique hair style which looked like the tail of a bird.

1992

Kim spent 24 seasons as a professional player from 1992 to 2015.

He kept 229 clean sheets and scored three goals while playing 706 games in the K League including Korean League Cup.

1998

Kim was selected for the South Korean squad for the 1998 FIFA World Cup.

South Korea lost 5–0 to the Netherlands in its second match, and South Korean players couldn't avoid journalists' criticisms after the defeat.

Furthermore, South Korea's manager Cha Bum-kun was sacked, although the tournament was ongoing.

However, Kim struggled in the Netherlands' 17 shots on target, and became the only player to receive acclaim despite conceding five goals.

Kim was a sweeper-keeper who could show clearances outside the penalty area at a rapid pace.

He also had great reflexes, and was skilled in making super saves.

However, his excessively active personality sometimes resulted in eccentric plays.

2001

In a match of the 2001 Lunar New Year Cup against Paraguay, he was deprived of the ball after he suddenly tried to dribble, and embarrassed Guus Hiddink, the former South Korea's manager.

2002

Kim formed a strong rivalry with Lee Woon-jae in the K League and the national team, and also competed with him for the position as a starter in the 2002 FIFA World Cup.

Hiddink agonised over the choice of a goalkeeper until the start of the tournament, but selected Lee because of Kim's eccentric play in the Lunar New Year Cup.

2015

Kim is currently working as a YouTuber in the "Kkong-byung-ji-tv", his YouTube channel, after his retirement in 2015.

On 27 January 2021, Kim was appointed a vice-president of the Korea Football Association (KFA).

On 28 May 2022, Kim signed with entertainment company Angry Dogs.

Kim became the president of Gangwon FC on 15 December 2022, and he resigned from KFA the next month to concentrate on Gangwon.
