Head coach Lee Jung-hyo (51) reunited with his sister at Suwon Samsung. Suwon Samsung of the K League 2 held national midfielder Jung Ho-yeon (26) and marked the end of the storm's recruitment toward promotion.
Suwon announced on the club's official channel on the 24th that it has hired central midfielder Jung Ho-yeon on loan.
Jung Ho-yeon is a lover who was called Lee Jung-hyo's tactical persona during Gwangju FC. Jung Ho-yeon, who tried to play overseas for the first time in her career by moving to Minnesota United of the U.S. Major League Soccer (MLS) in February last year, will wear the Suwon uniform in the 2026 season after being called by coach Lee Jung-hyo for the first time in a year.
Jeong Ho-yeon, who has active activity and excellent match coordination skills, is considered an all-around midfielder who crosses offense and defense. Jung Ho-yeon said, "It's a great honor to be part of a prestigious club called Suwon Samsung," adding, "I'd like to thank the club and fans for welcoming me warmly." I will grow with the team and make good results," he said.
Suwon, which is in its third season in the K League 2, has been taking a wide range of steps by appointing Lee Jung-hyo, one of the league's best tacticians, and sweeping up quasi-class resources.
Starting with Lee Joon-jae on the 7th, Suwon has carried out a large-scale reinforcement of its power through offense and defense, including Song Joo-hoon, Peshin, Park Hyun-bin, Kim Min-woo, Hong Jung-ho, and Yoon Geun-young.
It is evaluated that it has already established its top-ranked K League 2. Suwon filled the unstable back door with high-quality goalkeeper Kim Joon-hong and added weight by bringing Gwangju's multi-attack mercenary Hayes.
Suwon even brought veteran defender Hong Jung-ho to build a defensive line as good as the first division. Hong Jeong-ho, a former member of the national team, led Jeonbuk Hyundai to win the K League 1 and the Korea Cup (double) last season. He is the league's top center back who has been selected four times for the best 11 alone, including the 2021 K League 1 MVP.
Hong Jeong-ho, who originally wanted to stay in Jeonbuk, decided to go to Suwon after being actively courted by coach Lee Jung-hyo amid difficult negotiations with the club. Director Lee Jung-hyo called in person and showed sincerity, saying, "I want to be together." Hong Jung-ho said, "I will play with great responsibility in a team with tradition and pride."
Song Joo-hoon, a left-footed center back from the national team, also joined the defense. Song Joo-hoon, who left Jeju SK to join Suwon, said, "The second division is not suitable for Suwon, where the best supporters are. I will be promoted unconditionally this year," he said, expressing his strong will.
Pesin, a proven foreign striker, joined the attack. Pesin, who scored 30 goals and 10 assists in 92 games in three seasons at Busan I'Park, is expected to further strengthen Suwon's firepower. In addition, side defender Lee Joon-jae from Gyeongnam FC, Park Hyun-bin who passed through Incheon and Bucheon, Kim Min-woo from Daejeon and Gimpo, and rookie Yoon Geun-young boarded Lee Jung-hyo.
