Jang Jo-yoon (; born 1 January 1988), alternatively spelt as Chang Jo-yoon, is a retired South Korean footballer who plays as a forward.
While he started out initially as a midfielder while playing in his youth for Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors, he started playing as a striker after he moved to S. League side, Super Reds in 2009.
Jang spent his first two seasons as a professional player with K League side Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors in his native South Korea, the first club he signed for when he was fresh out of high school.
In 2009, Jang was given an opportunity to move to Singapore to play for the all-Korean team, Super Reds, in the S League.
When the Super Reds were denied a place in the 2010 S. League, Jang headed west with compatriot Park Kang-jin to join Gombak United where he would feature prominently for the Bulls, scoring a total of fourteen goals in the S. League and one each in the Singapore Cup and Singapore League Cup.
Jang was then transferred to Balestier Khalsa in 2012 but found little playing time under Hala Tigers coach Darren Stewart.
In December 2012, it was noted that Jang was on trial with Woodlands Wellington when he was featured in the Northern Rams' lineup against Johor Darul Takzim in a pre-season friendly.[1] Jang scored a goal in that match and set another goal for fellow Korean Moon Soon-ho in a subsequent friendly game against Warriors FC. On 11 January 2013, it was announced that Jang had been confirmed by the club for the 2013 season.[2] He made his debut for Woodlands Wellington on 21 February 2013 in a 2–2 draw against Warriors FC, assisting in Khalid Hamdaoui's 72nd-minute goal.[3] Jang scored his first Woodlands Wellington goal by firing home the winning goal off Taufiq Rahmat's corner kick at a S. League match against Albirex Niigata (S) on 27 March 2013, helping the Rams beat the White Swans with a 2–1 scoreline. He also created a goal for Khalid Hamdaoui in the same match.[4]
After 6 years in Singapore, Jang returned to Korea to join Yongin City FC and played in the third tier of the South Korean league.
Halfway throughout the season, Jang joined K League 2 club, Chungju Hummel.
In 2017, Jang joined K3 League outfits, Paju Citizen.
After a season at Paju Citizen, Jang joined Gimpo FC in 2018.
Jang returned to Singapore to join Hougang United in July 2018. He scored his first goal for Hougang in a 3–1 win against Geylang International on 5 August 2018.[5]
In 2019, Jang returned to Korea to rejoined Paju Citizen.
On 19 July 2019, he announced his retirement from football on a Facebook post, ending his 22-years football career.[6]
