After overcoming a severe hip injury from a bizarre unicycle accident, this two-meter-tall South Korean goalkeeper uses her intimidating strength to dominate the box with spectacular saves. Her reserved nature hides a ferocious instinct to launch herself at the ball, compensating for her difficulty commanding the defense with superhuman aerial agility. She channeled the pain of her rehabilitation into an obsession with perfection, becoming an almost impenetrable wall between the posts.
