description: "Kim Jin-kook is a former South Korean footballer. While Cha Bum-kun played as a right winger for the South Korea national football team in the 1970s, Kim was in charge of the left wing. He had a small body, but was skilled in changing directions and delivering crosses. Delivered to the target man Jae-han, his cross was one of South Korea's important tactics. He also played for 2. Bundesliga side Darmstadt 98 and Wormatia Worms in the later years of his career."
