South Korean defender Lee Han-beom is riding an extraordinary unbeaten run that now spans 40 competitive matches for club and country. Since joining FC Midtjylland in August 2023, he has not been on the losing side, a sequence that already exceeds a full 3F Superliga season in length.
Lee Han-beom’s Impressive Performance with FC Midtjylland
For Midtjylland, Lee has played 32 matches, producing 26 wins and six draws, along with one goal and five assists. With the national team since 2023, he has featured in eight games, winning seven and drawing one.
The 22-year-old delivered another standout display on Sunday at Parken. After the match, he described feeling some nerves in front of the large crowd but said he enjoyed the occasion. He emphasized that support from teammates has been crucial to sustaining the streak. Earlier in the spring, after opening his Midtjylland career with 12 straight victories, he highlighted guidance from teammates including Mads Bech and goalkeeper Jonas Lössl as important to his development.
Lee hopes to extend the run, acknowledging that pushing it toward 50 matches would be difficult but a target worth chasing. His current form and consistency have not only contributed to his club’s success but also to his national team’s preparations for upcoming competitions.
Lee is currently with South Korea for two friendly matches in the buildup to the 2026 World Cup, a tournament for which the team has already secured qualification. His dedication and performance on the pitch showcase his potential to become a key player for both club and country as they aim for success in future tournaments.
