He made one appearance, starting in the 1–1 draw with Japan, as Korea won the tournament. In May 2018 he was named in South Korea's preliminary 28 man squad for the 2018 FIFA World Cup in Russia. Ju started in Korea's second group game against Mexico, and appeared as a substitute in the final group game against Germany. In the sixth minute of injury time, Ju dispossessed Germany goalkeeper Manuel Neuer inside Korea's half and launched a 75-yard ball forward, which Son Heung-min converted to ensure a famous victory for Korea. Ju's assist was recorded as the second longest in World Cup history, behind Manuel Neuer himself, whose assist for Miroslav Klose against England in 2010 measured at 85-90 yards.
