Hyunjun Yang, born on 25 May 2002, which now makes him 23 years of age, hails from the Korea Republic. Yang, a forward who predominantly operates as a right winger, currently plies his trade with Celtic wearing the number 13 jersey. His height is 5ft 10in (1.79m) and he tips the scales at 10st 12lb (69kg).

The talented forward's current market worth is estimated to be around £2.13m according to Transfermarkt.

Yang moved to Gangwon FC in the K League 1 in his native Korea Republic in January 2021. He made his mark in his debut season by making nine first-team appearances in league matches. Proving his worth, the following 2022 season saw Yang featuring 36 times for the Gangwon FC first team, netting eight goals in the process. In 2023, he also managed to rack up 21 first team appearances and added a solitary goal to his tally in league matches.

In July of the same year, Yang completed his transition from Gangwon FC to Celtic, joining the Scottish Premiership side for an anticipated fee of £2.2m. Yang's tenure at Celtic saw him making 24 first team appearances, scoring a solitary goal in his opening 2023-2024 season. He built upon this foundation in the 2024-2025 season, chalking up 23 first team matches whilst planting five balls in the back of the net. The current season of 2025-2026 has already seen Yang making four first-team appearances in league matches for Celtic.

Yang's Celtic career has seen him participating in an array of competitions including Champions League 2023-2024 where he recorded two starts and made two appearances as a substitute. In the League Cup 2025-2026, he made his mark, scoring a goal from both a start and a substitute appearance. He echoed this during the Scottish Cup 2024-2025 where he bagged a goal from a start and two substitute appearances. Further appearances include the Champions League qualifiers 2025-2026, where he made a start and a substitute appearance, and the Europa League 2025-2026 where he turned out from the start of a match.
