Bundesliga after the 1992–93 season, but they returned to the Bundesliga just one year after their relegation by winning the 1993–94 2. Bundesliga. However, he came back to Daewoo according to the failure to extend a contract with Bochum.

He was elected the Asian Footballer of the Year for three consecutive years from 1989 to 1991.
