Park Seung-soo, who returned to Suwon, began to show his potential more as he made his K-League debut. It was not a great performance, but it was a time to show Park Seung-soo's strengths. When Park Seung-soo was able to transfer, attention was paid to him. European clubs such as Red Bull Salzburg, Hoffenheim, Southampton, Valencia and Frankfurt went to war to take Park Seung-soo.
