How it is calculated
- Equal records share a rank (1, 1, 3…). Players on zero are not listed.
- Per 90 = goals (assists) × 90 ÷ minutes played, computed here to two decimals.
- K League minutes are the league's official figures and include stoppage time.
- 38-game pace = current total × 38 ÷ the club's games played (rounded). It extends the current rate — arithmetic, not a forecast.
- Club games left = 38 games per club − the club's games played.
Player stats: official league records (via Naver Sports). Ranks, gaps, games left and paces are computed here from those same numbers. No probabilities. Players the league feed names only in Korean script are shown in Korean.
