In 2005 he moved back to South Korea and joined South Korea’s A-League Club FC Seoul. He made his debut as a professional football player in 2008 against the biggest rival Suwon Samsung Bluewings. Soon he became an important player in the first team, for whom he played 64 games in 3 years. In the summer of 2009 it was announced that he would make the step to Europa and to join Celtic. With his vision, technique, long passing and shooting he became soon one of the fan’s favorites.

For the South Korean player it was a dream coming true. At Swansea he became a legend, he played over 140 games for the Swans when he made another step in his footballing career.
