After making his professional debut in the Japanese J-League, Park Ju-ho played for Basel and Mainz before joining Bundesliga giants Dortmund in 2015.

He made a strong impression with a goal on his debut, but a combination of injuries and inconsistency prevented him from playing many games and he returned to Korea in 2017.
