He played for the South Korea national football team and was a participant at the 2002 FIFA World Cup.

He is the first goalkeeper to have scored in the AFC Champions League against Monte Carlo on 9 October 2002. Daejeon Citizen went on to beat Monte Carlo 5–1.

In February 2012, just before the 2012 league campaign, Choi requested to extend the contract with Daejeon for one more year, but the board obstinately rejected his proposal. He had to leave Daejeon and become a free agent after rejecting a new deal with the club. On 23 March 2012, Choi joined Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors on a one-year deal.

gollark: I mean, you seem to still be continuing your activities, and in a more ominous way.
gollark: Perhaps I could *prepay* people in melons to find datas about me.
gollark: At least ask people beforehand.
gollark: That really reads more like a bizarre passive-aggressive threat.
gollark: I am willing to pay people absolutely nothing of "real" financial value for finding and reporting "personal data leaks". Partly because payments are irritating to do and have security problems and partly because it would possibly encourage stuff like finding my data somewhere and creating/reporting fake sites. However, I *can* pay you in krist, an entirely fake not-really-cryptocurrency on a few Minecraft servers, or melons.
