League One promotion favourites Birmingham City have made their third January transfer window signing by bringing in South Korea international Lee Myung-jae on deadline day, subject to international clearance.
The 31-year-old seven-times capped left-back, who had been at Korean K-League side Ulsan HD, joins Blues on a deal until the end of the season.
He follows the arrivals of defender Grant Hanley, from Norwich City, and front player Kieran Dowell, on loan from Rangers.
That takes the total of signings made by Blues boss Chris Davies to 20 - after 17 in the August transfer window, including record third-tier signing Jay Stansfield for an eight-figure fee.
Stansfield has so far hit 14 goals this season to help Blues top League One by four points - with two games in hand.
Blues face a big week on the knockout front, with a trip to Stevenage in their EFL Trophy quarter-final on Tuesday night before Saturday's FA Cup fourth-round tie at home to Newcastle United.
