Hwang Ui-Jo (Hangul: 황의조; born 28 August 1992) is a South Korean footballer who plays as striker for Seongnam FC in K League Classic.
He was selected by Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma in 2013 K League Draft. He made his debut goal against Suwon Samsung Bluewings on 3 March 2013.
He was expected to leave Seongnam FC when they relegated to K League Challenge in 2017 because he is regarded as one of most prospective Korean strikers in the league, but he agreed to stay with Seongnam FC after Park Kyung-hoon persuaded him to stay.
Hwang Ui-Jo scored first goal in Korea Republic-Jamaica friendly match on October 13, 2015.
