It is the shortest time in history among 12 players with more than 30 goals in Suwon Samsung, breaking the previous records set by Sasha and Sandro for a year and two months.[6] Since then, he has scored multiple goals in four consecutive games, scoring nine goals out of 11 goals in recent three games in Suwon, leading the Suwon Samsung Bluewings to second place in league and fifth straight times.[7]

After the 2017 season, he became the K-League Classic's 2017 scoring champion with 22 goals in 26 games,[8] and was included in the K-League's Best 11 awards.[9] After that, Johnathan Goaiano received a generous offer from former South Korean national team coach Uli Stielike, and transferred to Tianjin Teda in China.[10]
