Career
society
The young Jo-gook, who was born in Busan , began his professional career as a football player in 2003 at FC Seoul , which was then still known as Anyang LG , in the K League . He spent the next seven years there and was able to win the runner-up in 2008, with which the club qualified for the 2009 AFC Champions League . On the way to the quarterfinals of the competition, Jung was used in seven games and scored four goals. In 2010 he won the South Korean championship title for the first time.
During his time at FC Seoul, the striker played in 209 league games and scored 62 goals. He left the club at the end of the 2010 season and signed a two and a half year contract with AJ Auxerre in French Ligue 1 . He made his debut on January 29, 2011 in the 2-0 defeat by SM Caen . After a total of 16 games he was awarded to league rivals AS Nancy by the end of the 2011/12 season. When he could not assert himself there either and mostly sat on the bench or came into the game as a substitute, he returned to FC Seoul and was able to win his second championship title there for the remainder of the 2012 season.
For the 2013 season, Jung moved to the newly established South Korean second division for Ansan Mugunghwa FC (then Police FC ) for almost two years and helped the club to second place with nine goals in the first year. During the 2014 season he returned to FC Seoul for the third time, but only made a few league appearances there for the next one and a half years. Only in the AFC Champions League 2015 he was one of the regulars with six games (2 goals). Before the start of the 2016 season , he joined league rivals Gwangju FC , where he was able to build on his previous performances. During the season he scored a total of 20 goals and was named the top scorer .
Before the start of the 2017 season, he moved to newly promoted Gangwon FC , who had prevailed in the relegation against Seongnam FC at the end of 2016 .
National team
Jung Jo-gook began his international career in 2000 in the U-17 team , with which he took part in qualifying for the 2000 Asian Cup in Vietnam . Due to the worse goal difference against China , however, they missed the final round. From 2002 to 2003 he was a member of the U-20 team and took part in the 2002 Asian Cup in Qatar . On the way to the title, Jung was on the field in all games and scored the decisive goal in the 96th minute for the 1-0 victory in the final against Japan . South Korea thus qualified for the 2003 Junior World Championship in the United Arab Emirates , in which Jung also took part. From 2003 to 2006 he was in the squad of the U-23 team again and again , including at the soccer tournament of the Asian Games in 2006 , when South Korea had to admit defeat to Iran in the bronze medal .
Jung made his debut for the senior team of South Korea on January 18, 2006 in a friendly against the United Arab Emirates , which was lost 1-0. After three more missions he was in the qualification for AM 2007 first in the first leg against Chinese Taipei (3-0) and then in the second leg (8-0) on the field. In the two games he scored his only four international goals. In the further course of this qualification he was still used against Iran (0-2) in November 2006. From 2008 to 2011 the striker only played four more friendly matches. He played his last international game on June 3, 2011 in a 2-1 win over Serbia .
