Kwon Chang-hoon (Korean: 권창훈; born 30 June 1994) is a South Korean professional footballer who plays as an attacking midfielder for K League 1 club Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors and the South Korea national team.
Early life
[edit]Kwon started playing football when he was in YangJeon Elementary School in Seoul. After he graduated from Joongdong Middle School, he went to Maetan High School to join the under-18 team of Suwon Samsung Bluewings.
Club career
[edit]Suwon Samsung Bluewings
[edit]Suwon Samsung Bluewings signed Kwon under homegrown player rule during the 2012 K League draft. He made his senior debut as a substitute in the 79th minute in an AFC Champions League match against Kashiwa Reysol on 3 April 2013. He also made his K League debut against Daegu FC on 6 April, playing as a substitute for 25 minutes. He was selected for the K League 1 Best XI in 2015 and 2016 while playing for Suwon. He challenged France's Ligue 1 after growing as one of the top midfielders in the K League.
Dijon
[edit]In January 2017, Kwon joined Dijon on a 3.5-year deal. The transfer fee paid to Suwon was estimated at €1.5 million.[2] In the 2017–18 Ligue 1, Kwon quickly established himself as an ace player for Dijon, finishing joint Dijon's top scorer with 11 goals in 34 league appearances. However, he injured his Achilles tendon during the last league match, and failed to show his former performance since then.
SC Freiburg
[edit]On 28 June 2019, Kwon joined Bundesliga side SC Freiburg.[3][4] He usually played as a substitute during two years in Freiburg.
Return to Suwon
[edit]Kwon left SC Freiburg to do mandatory military service in South Korea. He returned to his former club Suwon Samsung Bluewings, and prepared to enlist in military football club Gimcheon Sangmu.[5]
Kwon did not feature for Suwon during the 2023 season, which saw the club getting relegated to K League 2, due to persistent injuries; he subsequently left the club, following the expiration of his contract.[6][7] He received support from Suwon to overcome a long-term injury, whereas he was criticised for being unconcerned with the club and club's fans.[8]
Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors
[edit]On 7 January 2024, Kwon joined fellow K League 1 club Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors on a free transfer.[7][9]
International career
[edit]Kwon was named in the South Korean under-19 squad for the 2012 AFC U-19 Championship in the United Arab Emirates.[10] After winning the AFC Championship, Kwon was called up to under-20 team for the 2013 FIFA U-20 World Cup.[11]
Kwon was called up to the senior national team for the 2015 East Asian Cup. He made his international debut in an East Asian Cup match against China. On 3 September 2015, at the Hwaseong Stadium, he scored his first senior goals, a brace, in an 8–0 home win over Laos in the second round of qualification for the 2018 FIFA World Cup.[12]
Kwon participated in the 2016 Summer Olympics, and scored a crucial goal in a 1–0 win over Mexico to advance to the quarter-finals.
Kwon was named in South Korea's preliminary 28-man squad for the 2018 World Cup in Russia. In the last game of the 2017–18 French season, however, Kwon injured his Achilles tendon and was ruled out for the World Cup through injury.[13]
