Ahn Byung-joon is a player loved by Suwon FC fans and a player who wrote Suwon FC history. He is a striker who led Suwon FC to a dramatic first division with a 'BuzzerBeater' penalty in the 2020 promotion playoff. For Ahn Byung-joon, Suwon FC is also the first and last love. Ahn Byung-joon, a third-generation Korean in Japan and a member of the North Korean national team, wore the K League 2 Suwon FC uniform in 2019 after going through the J-League, scored 21 goals and four assists in 26 games in the 2020 season, sweeping the K League 2 MVP and top scorer and leading the promotion to the first division. Ahn Byung-joon, who was affectionately loved by fans under the nickname of 'Revan Dongmouski'People's Baldu', announced his retirement after being called by coach Kim Eun-joong in 2024 after passing through Busan I'Park (2021-2022) and Suwon Samsung (2022-2023 women). He scored 69 goals and 10 assists in 158 games in the K League.

In particular, the retirement ceremony will be held in Daejeon at the request of Martha, who is currently a member of Daejeon Hana and a member of the promotion team in 2020. He was remembered as the first Korean in Japan to hold a retirement ceremony at the K-League ground. Ahn Byung-joon said "What the two of Marsa talked about as a joke became a reality. I thank Martha and the Suwon FC club," he said. When he said that it was the first K-League retirement ceremony for Koreans in Japan, Ahn Byung-joon said, `It was unexpected.' "It was an unexpected opportunity and experience to come to the K-League, so it was also unimaginable that Suwon FC in Korea would hold a retirement ceremony. I am honored, delighted and grateful." He expressed his special heart to Castle Park fans who always support him whether he does well or not, but whether it rains or snows. "I first moved to the K League and felt it from the first year. Even if the performance and performance are not good, there are fans who always encourage me warmly, so the players play earnestly with gratitude."

At the start of the retirement ceremony, Suwon FC home fans dedicated the hanger 90+9 that will be remembered forever to Ahn Byung-joon. Suwon FC's squad lined up wearing a 'Black-Gold' t-shirt commemorating Ahn Byung-joon's retirement ceremony. Coach Kim Eun-jung and Choi Kyu-baek delivered bouquets of flowers and took commemorative photos as representatives of Suwon FC and Masawa of Suwon FC during the promotion of Suwon FC after Choi Soon-ho, head of Suwon FC, re-recruitment last season, delivered the frame to commemorate his retirement. Ahn Byung-joon said "It was an honor to play for a team called Suwon FC. With the fans here, I will now support Suwon FC as an eternal fan." The home team and the away team celebrated Ahn Byung-joon's retirement ceremony. Then "Ahn Byung-joon!" In the chants, Ahn Byung-joon and his son Ahn Yong-chan went out to celebrate together with the Busan I'Park U-12 striker. The broadcast sound at the time of the 2020 promotion playoff penalty was also heard. With a hot shout, a moving scene symbolizing the past, present, new start and future of the soccer player who became the history of Suwon FC was produced.

Meanwhile, coach Kim Eun-joong did not forget his warm message of support to Ahn Byung-joon ahead of the retirement ceremony. "I've been watching Byung-joon since he came to Korea. Personally, the most preferred type of player" he admitted. "I brought him back on loan in the second half of last year, and it was a shame that he had a knee injury. It would have been great if we met when we were younger. He was a player who could shake off the striker's worries that he had been agonizing over all last year at once. It was such a bummer. However, I am so grateful that I played for Suwon FC until the end and that the club treated a player like this. I'm glad that Byung-jun (An) also retired and seems to be preparing well for his second life. I want to keep supporting you in the future."
