Timeline
Ko Jong-soo ( born 30 October 1978) is a South Korean football coach and former player.
Born in Yeosu, Jeonnam, Ko graduated from Yeosu West Elementary School, Yeosu Gubong Middle School and Kumho High School.
While playing as a youth footballer for Kumho High School, Ko led his team to the title in the Baeklokgi Football Tournament, one of national high school football competitions in South Korea, and was nicknamed the "Enfant terrible".
His talent received attention early from South Korea's senior professional clubs, and he joined Suwon Samsung Bluewings just before his graduation.
After joining Suwon Samsung Bluewings as a founding member in December 1995, Ko showed remarkable dribbles, passes and shots which led Suwon's prime.
During his era, Suwon won 13 titles including two Asian Club Championships and two K Leagues.
Especially, he was named the K League Most Valuable Player after contributing to his club's first-ever league title in 1998.
Ko was also noted for his free kicks and the front and right of the penalty arc were called "Ko Jong-soo Zones" in South Korea.
However, he suffered a cruciate ligament injury in the 2001 season, and failed to recover his condition before the World Cup.
This injury was also fatal to his playing career, and he could not show his former talent.
He scored with a memorable free kick against José Luis Chilavert when he participated in FIFA's all-star game before the 2002 FIFA World Cup.
Ko was evaluated as the best Korean technician at the time, and his left foot is considered one of the greatest feet of all time in South Korea.
He was expected to play for the national team in the 2002 World Cup, hosted by his country.
Ko spent his coaching career in Suwon Samsung Bluewings from 2011 to 2017.
In November 2017, Ko was appointed Daejeon Citizen manager by Kim Ho, the Daejeon Citizen president at the time and his manager during his playing career.
However, he was convicted of corruption about a tryout for Daejeon after the 2018 season.
