== Managerial career ==
After [[South Korea national football team|South Korea]]'s head coach [[Pim Verbeek]] resigned in July 2007, Seo entered the list for the vacant managerial position for the national team. From 2009 to 2010, he and his former national teammate and close friend, [[Hong Myung-bo]], worked together as a part of the coaching staff for the South Korea under-20 and under-23 team. In 2010, Seo joined the coaching staff of the senior team under manager [[Cho Kwang-rae]]. Since 2012, he has been a member of the coaching staff of the Suwon Samsung Bluewings, becoming the club's manager in 2013. Under his tenure, the Bluewings finished the [[2014 K League Classic|2014]] and [[2015 K League Classic|2015]] seasons as runner-ups and won the [[Korean FA Cup]] in 2016. The [[2016 Korean FA Cup#Final|FA Cup Final]] was notable as it featured Suwon Samsung Bluewings and FC Seoul, one of the biggest K League rivalries. The match went into extra time after FC Seoul scored a goal in the 93rd minute, leveling the aggregate score to 3–3 over two legs. After a scoreless extra time period, the final was decided over [[penalty shoot-out (association football)|penalties]] where Suwon Samsung Bluewings won 10–9. This was Seo's first silverware of his managing career.

==Personal life==
Seo married in 1995 and has three sons. His third son [[Seo Dong-han]] also became a forward of [[Suwon Samsung Bluewings]].
