Kim Jong-un, the 'living legend' of women's basketball, has rewritten the history of scoring the most points in his career.

It is a record that has been accumulated for nearly 20 years, but what is the secret of consistency?

The Youngsoo Kim reporter met and listened to it in person.

Kim Jong-un cuts the rim with a jump shot 25 seconds into the game.

8,141st point in his career!

It is a moment that exceeds Jeong Seon-min's personal record of scoring points, which has not been broken in 12 years.

[Kim Jeong-eun / Hana Bank forward, top scorer: There were a lot of crises between 7,000 and 8,000 points. I want to praise myself for overcoming that difficulty and achieving such a milestone.]

Kim Jong-un, who first took the professional stage in the winter of 2005, was the youngest in all 1,000-point records from 2,000 points to 8,000 points.

It wasn't spectacular, but it was named the "living legend" of women's basketball with its consistency of scoring double digits every season.

[Kim Jeong-eun / Hana Bank forward, top scorer: There were so many injury issues that I had difficulties in that area, so I don't think I neglected my body more than any other player in terms of physical care, rehabilitation or weighting.]

Kim Jong-un won the integrated championship twice during his time at Woori Bank to cool down his anger and win the championship MVP.

It's been 20 years since my debut, and I'm old enough to retire at any time in a career that's not indifferent, but
Hana Bank, a 'friendly team' that moves around in the lower ranks of
, is sweating continuously this winter.

[Kim Jeong-eun / Hana Bank forward, top scorer: I thought it would be nice for our players to play on a bigger stage. I think my last motivation is Champjeon.

Kim Jong Un endured hardships and adversity with just his passion for basketball.

The veteran, who has paid off as the most goalscorer of all time, is now preparing for the final stage of his career with all his might.
