Korean women's soccer legend "Jimesh" Ji So-yeon (34) returned as Suwon FC Women.

Suwon FC Women announced in a press release on the 6th that it has recruited Ji So-yeon ahead of the 2026 season. Ji So-yeon, who played for Suwon FC Women in the 2022-2023 season, will return to the WK League stage after two years in Suwon uniform.

Through the club, Ji So-yeon said, "I had a strong desire to return to Suwon if I came back to Korea, but I'm glad to be back soon," adding, "I'll challenge Suwon FC Women to become champions once again."

Korean women's soccer legend Ji So-yeon played as a key midfielder for Chelsea FC Women (England) from 2014 to 2022, starting with Aynak Kobe Leonessa (Japan) in 2011. After that, he continued his career with Seattle Lane FC (USA) and Birmingham City WFC (England) after passing Suwon FC Women, and then chose to go back to Suwon FC Women.

Ji So-yeon, who left for the overseas stage after experiencing the runner-up in the WK League in the 2023 season, will once again be responsible for the center of Suwon FC women through this return. Suwon FC Women, who joined Choi Yu-ri and Kim Hye-ri, and Ji So-yeon, strengthened their power in preparation for the WK League and the Asian Football Confederation (AFC) Women's Champions League (WACL).
