Playing career
Nicknamed "Sirius" and dubbed "Kwanquelme" by his fans,Lee began his professional football career in the K-League by joining the community based club,Daejeon Citizen in 2000. During his stay in Daejeon,he established himself as a fan favorite with his accurate passes and long shots. In addition,his record of 22 goals and 18 assists made him an icon amongst the Purple Crew;however,in July 2006,he left Daejeon and joined its rival club,Suwon Samsung Bluewings. [1] Before joining the Bluewings,he suffered a knee injury in a car crash. He almost retired but came back strong for Suwon and even made a national squad.
After a poor seasonal campaign in 2005,the Bluewings aimed to rebuild their squad during the transfer window,and brought in Lee Kwan-Woo along with others notably Baek Ji-hoon for the 2006 season. [2] This proved to be a vital move,as the Bluewings finished the season as runners-up despite being one of the top favorites. At the start of the 2007 campaign,he was given the armband for the Suwon Bluewings, [3] but lost his captaincy to his teammate Song Chong-gug at the start of the 2008 season. [4] Nevertheless,his keen passing and ball distribution remain invaluable to the Suwon Bluewings.
He is member of 30-30 Club since 25 August 2007. [5]
In 2013,he joined Home United FC as their club marquee player. [6]
