Kim Ho (Korean: 김호; born 24 November 1944) is a former South Korean football player and manager.

Early life

[edit source]

Born in Tongyeong, a coastal city of South Korea, Kim started playing football in his hometown. He entered Tongyeong High School one year before transferring to Jinju High School, which had a football club. He experienced a slump at the new school, and once again moved to another school, Dongnae High School in Busan. When graduating from Dongnae, he followed manager An Jong-soo who was appointed manager of semi-professional club Cheil Industries at the same time.[1]

International career

[edit source]

Kim originally played as a right-back, but he showed his best performance after changing his position to centre-back. His defense was rough and daring, but successfully harmonised with his partner Kim Jung-nam. The centre-back duo led South Korea to win the 1970 Asian Games.[2]

Managerial career

[edit source]

Early career

[edit source]

In 1978, Kim started his managerial career at his alma mater Dongnae High School after retiring as a player.[3] While managing Dongnae in 1979, he simultaneously participated at the FIFA World Youth Championship as a coach of the South Korea under-20 team.[4]

On 30 November 1981, Kim was appointed manager of semi-professional club Hanil Bank.[5] In 1983, Hanil Bank won the Korean Semi-professional League under him, being promoted to the K League.[6] However, Hanil Bank was relegated to the Semi-professional League when the K League was completely professionalised in 1987,[7] and he decided to move to another K League club Hyundai Horang-i the next year.[8]

Kim led Hyundai to finish second out of six clubs in his first season,[9] but fell to sixth and fifth place in two subsequent seasons.[10][11] At the end of the 1990 season, he resigned from the team and was replaced by Cha Bum-kun.[12]

South Korea

[edit source]

On 8 July 1992, Kim signed a two-year contract with the Korea Football Association, becoming the first-ever full-time manager of the South Korea national team, which had appointed managers who had been managing other teams.[13] In October 1993, he succeeded in qualifying for the 1994 FIFA World Cup, but was criticised for his poor process in the qualifiers.[14] South Korean fans required the association to replace Kim with Park Jong-hwan,[15] but it was decided to keep Kim at a meeting of the association on 17 November.[16]

Prior to the 1994 FIFA World Cup, Kim set a target of advancing to the round of 16.[17] South Korea drew 2–2 with Spain and 0–0 with Bolivia, earning two points in their first two matches.[18] They then conceded three goals due to goalkeeper Choi In-young's poor performance during the first half of the last group stage match against defending champions Germany.[19][20] After substituting the goalkeeper at half-time, they scored two goals before the match ended in a 3–2 defeat.[21][22] Kim left the team after being eliminated in the group stage.[17]

Suwon Samsung Bluewings

[edit source]

On 22 February 1995, Samsung announced the establishment of their football club Suwon Samsung Bluewings, and appointed Kim as the first manager of the club.[23] He lifted 13 trophies including two K League titles and two Asian Club Championship titles for eight seasons at Suwon until he announced his retirement at the end of the 2003 season. He also discovered and nurtured young talents called the "Kim Ho's Children". Many of his pupils had successful careers at the K League even after his resignation. Especially, Ko Jong-soo and Kim Do-heon played for the national team among them.[24]

Daejeon Citizen

[edit source]

On 13 July 2007, Kim signed for K League club Daejeon Citizen, cancelling his retirement.[25] Daejeon earned 13 points in 13 league matches during the first half of the 2007 season before his appointment, whereas they qualified for the championship play-offs after getting 24 points in the other 13 matches under his guidance.[26]

Since 2008, however, Kim was heavily involved in the club's administration, and was in conflict with their board. He directly approached the city government to receive more financial support, and the club's director regarded his method as an arrogation. He also attempted to appoint his acquaintance as the club's vice-director, and an agent who was having a close relationship with him was suspected of embezzling from the club. He brought poor results at the league during the same period, and was removed from the club along with the director in June 2019.[27]

Administrative career

[edit source]

On 1 November 2017, Kim came back to Daejeon Citizen as a director despite the controversies about 10 years ago.[28] As soon as he was appointed Daejeon's director, he engaged a significant number of his acquaintances as managers, agents, and players without principle, causing controversies again.[29] The number of Daejeon players increased to 63 at the time,[30] and the son of reserve-team manager who was appointed by Kim was included in the squad.[31] The highest-paid foreign players among them were also recruited by the aforementioned agent.[32] After choosing Ko Jong-soo, who had been his pupil at Suwon Samsung Bluewings, as first-team manager, Kim interfered in the team's training.[33] His cronyism was followed by a waste of tax money and non-payments of club staff's wages.[34] At the end of the 2018 season, six out of 16 executives resigned together from the club, with they criticising Kim.[35] On 11 March 2019, Daejeon announced Kim's resignation.[36]
