Club career

In the summer of 2017, Won dropped out of Hanyang University and moved to Japan to join J2 League club Avispa Fukuoka. After playing as a defensive midfielder and a centre-back for Fukuoka for two and a half years, he came back to his country and joined K League 1 side Ulsan Hyundai.[2] Ulsan usually used him as a defensive midfielder, and he played as a centre-back when his rear teammates were injured.[3] Ulsan fans felt he looked better when he played as a midfielder.[4] He helped the club win the 2020 AFC Champions League and the 2022 K League 1. He enlisted in Gimcheon Sangmu, a military football club and a K League 2 club, to serve his mandatory military service in 2023.[5] He was nominated for the K League 2 Most Valuable Player award by leading Sangmu to the league title as a captain, but lost to Valdívia.[6] After being discharged from Sangmu in July 2024, he transferred to UAE Pro League club Khor Fakkan.
