South Korea Champions, Lee Kang-In’s Military Service Significantly Reduced

Lee Kang-In, the 22-year-old attacking midfielder and South Korean international, has won the Asian Games with the national U23 team of South Korea, defeating Japan U23 by 2-1.

This is excellent news for South Korea, for Lee Kang-In, and particularly for PSG. Winning the Asian Games allows Lee Kang-In to reduce his mandatory military service from 18, 20, or 21 months (depending on the branch of the armed forces) to just 3 weeks.

This is a significant advantage for PSG, which had invested in the player with hopes of reducing his military service period. Mission accomplished.

Lee Kang-In is expected to play a few more matches with the South Korean national team before returning to PSG. Additionally, he should also participate in the Asian Cup, scheduled from January 12 to February 10, 2024.
