Playing career
Choi was born in Taedong and grew up in Pyongyang, currently the capacity of North Korea, but he moved south during the Korean War. Afterwards, he enlisted in the Korea Army Counter Intelligence Corps. (CIC) He played for CIC's football club and the South Korea national football team since 1952.[3][4]
South Korea went to Japan to play qualifiers for the 1954 FIFA World Cup against Japanese national team. South Korean team felt a heavy burden of the two matches against Japan due to pressure from the South Korean public caused by the Japanese occupation until 1945. He scored three goals during two matches, and South Korea advanced to the World Cup by defeating Japan 7–3 on aggregate.[2] In the 1954 FIFA World Cup, however, he failed to prevent South Korea's defeats against Hungary and Turkey.
