Lee Jae-ik, who made his professional debut at Gangwon FC in 2018, succeeded in making a soft landing in the K-League by playing in Seoul E-Land (2021-2023) and Jeonbuk Hyundai (2024) through Qatar Al Riyan (2019-2020), Belgium Royal Antwerp (2020-2021).

Lee Jae-ik said, "I am well aware that Ulsan had the most goals (62 points) and fewest goals (40 goals) in the K League 1 last season. We must contribute to defending this title. It will have a positive impact on both indicators. Although I participated in the team's winter training late, I will show good performances during the season with enough effort to turn it around. 메이저놀이터 Please give me a lot of support."
