societies

In the same year he was able to win the Asian Club Championship 1996/97 , today's AFC Champions League . In 1998 he was even able to defend the championship title. Those two years were his most successful years as a player. From 1997 he had to move to Sangmu FC on loan . Since he was required to serve two years in the military, he was not able to return to Pohang until late 1998. At the end of 1999 he left the club in the direction of Bucheon SK . There he did not get beyond the reserve role, so he moved to Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma FC in 2001 . There, however, he only made 18 appearances and two goals in the two seasons. In late 2002, he ended his career as a player.

National team

In 1991 the KFA invited him to the U20 national team, for which he played until 1993. From 1992 he was also used in the U23, for which he played seven missions until 1995. In 1994 he was appointed to the senior national team, for which he completed twelve missions and scored two goals over the course of the year. He also took part in the 1994 World Cup in the USA ; in the group game against Germany he was in the starting line-up. From 1995 he was no longer invited to the national team.

Career as a coach

After retiring from his career, he returned to Bucheon SK and became an assistant coach. In 2009 he became an interim coach and led the team for a few games. From the end of 2009 to 2010 he was again an assistant coach. In 2011 he left the club and went to Jeonnam Dragons . There he also became an assistant coach. At the end of 2012, his contract was not extended, so he had to leave the club. In 2013, Daejeon Citizen announced they had signed him as an assistant coach. After the coaching team was dismissed in 2013, he became an interim coach. Under his leadership Daejeon Citizen won a few games, but the team missed relegation four points behind the relegation place. Despite the relegation, the club's management stuck to him as a coach. In 2014 he was immediately promoted back to the K League Classic with Daejeon . However, since the team lost many top performers after the end of the season, the 2015 season was catastrophic. He was released in the middle of the season. In early 2016, Sangju Sangmu FC signed him as the successor to Park Hang-seo . Under his leadership, the club was able to reach the championship round this season. By reaching the championship round, he was able to secure the club's relegation. Furthermore, although he and his team ended up in 6th place, it was the club's best placement since the introduction of the K League Classic. For the first time since 2014 , the club has not been relegated. At the end of 2016, Busan IPark announced that it had signed him as the new coach for the 2017 season . Under his leadership, Busan IPark played for promotion from the start. Busan reached the semi-finals of the Korean FA Cup under his leadership .
