Jeonbuk Hyundai 'Captain' Park Jin-seop will head to Zhejiang FC in the Chinese Super League.

Jeonbuk announced Park Jin-seop's transfer to Zhejiang FC on the 3rd and said, "Park Jin-seop has delivered a new goal of challenging the overseas stage to the club, and we have agreed to this transfer with support for the future of the player considering his dedication and contribution."

"As Park Jin-seop has grown into a representative player of the K-League and made brilliant achievements such as the national team and the Asian Games gold medal, we decided to open up the last opportunity to advance overseas after his 30th year," he explained.

Park Jin-seop, who joined Jeonbuk Hyundai in 2022, has played a central role in both the team's offense and defense over the past four seasons. In addition to tactical flexibility between central defenders and defensive midfielders, he received absolute support from fans for his gritty and dedicated play. In particular, Park Jin-seop is said to have grown from an "unsung hero" to an "irreplaceable leader" by taking the captaincy and uniting the team in difficult times.

In the 2025 season, he also led the team's defense line under Gus Foye, playing the most important role in winning the K-League and the Korea Cup double, and winning the Korea Cup MVP.

"Park Jin-seop was the player who best showed the spirit of Jeonbuk Hyundai on and off the field," Jeonbuk said. "It's a pity to break up with him, but I judged that applauding the player's new challenge is the value of respect that Jeonbuk Hyundai pursues."

Park Jin-seop said, "I still vividly remember my first day of joining a team called Jeonbuk Hyundai, which I had dreamed of since I was young. "My time at the best club was the brightest moment in my life," he said. "I will keep the hot cheers from fans at Jeonju Castle in my heart." "Although I leave my body, I will always sincerely support Jeonbuk Hyundai from afar," he said.
