Ri Kwang-chon (; born 4 September 1985) is a North Korean former footballer who played as a centre-back.
From 2005 to 2011, Ri played for April 25 and helped them win the league three times in 2002, 2010 and 2011. In 2012, he had a chance to join Chinese side Tianjin Teda but had problems obtaining a work permit and eventually joined Muangthong United in Thailand.[1] After his release from Muangthong, Ri returned to April 25 in 2014, but came back to Thailand a year later to join Pattaya United, retiring that same year. As with many other North Korean footballers, his whereabouts are unknown after his retirement.
Ri played for the North Korean national team between 2001 and 2012. He represented the country at the 2010 FIFA World Cup and the 2011 AFC Asian Cup.
