Ju made his league debut for Busan IPark as a substitute in 6–0 defeat away to FC Seoul on 21 July 2012. His first full start came almost two years later in a league match against Gyeongnam on 4 May 2014. Ju scored his first goal for the club in an FA Cup game against Suwon City on 16 July 2014, which IPark went on to win 3–2 after extra time. His first league goal came a month later in a 4–2 victory over Seongnam FC. Ju became a regular starter and key player for IPark in the second half of the 2014 K League 1 season. He finished the season with five assists, the most at the club, and was named in the weekly K League 1 'Best Eleven' on three occasions.[2]

Ju continued to be a regular starter in the 2015 season, as IPark were relegated into the K League 2.

Ju joined FC Seoul on 8 January 2016. On 2 January 2021 Se-Jong was released following his contract running out.

International career

[edit | edit source]

Ju made his debut for the Korean national team on 11 June 2015, appearing as a substitute in a 3–0 victory over UAE. He was later selected in the squad for the East Asian Cup. He made one appearance, starting in the 1–1 draw with Japan, as Korea won the tournament.

In May 2018 he was named in South Korea's preliminary 28 man squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia.[3] Ju started in Korea's second group game against Mexico, and appeared as a substitute in the final group game against Germany. In the sixth minute of injury time, Ju dispossessed Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer inside Korea's half and launched a 75-yard ball forward, which Son Heung-min converted to ensure a famous victory for Korea. Ju's assist was recorded as the second longest in World Cup history, behind Manuel Neuer himself, whose assist for Miroslav Klose against England in 2010 measured at 85-90 yards.[4]
