In July 2000, Seol joined a Belgian club Royal Antwerp.{{cite web |url=http://h21.hani.co.kr/arti/world/world_general/1422.html |script-title=ko:벨기에 찍고 빅리그 간다 |language=ko |publisher=The Hankyoreh |date=3 January 2001 |access-date=3 June 2020}} He became the second South Korean footballer to score in double figures during a season in Europe, following Cha Bum-kun.{{cite web |url=https://football-tribe.com/korea/2017/12/11/%EC%B9%B4%EB%93%9C-%EB%89%B4%EC%8A%A4-%EC%9C%A0%EB%9F%BD-%EB%A6%AC%EA%B7%B8%EC%97%90%EC%84%9C-%EB%91%90-%EC%9E%90%EB%A6%BF%EC%88%98-%EB%93%9D%EC%A0%90%EC%9D%98-%EA%B8%88%EC%9E%90%ED%83%91%EC%9D%84/4/ |script-title=ko:[카드 뉴스] 유럽 리그에서 두 자릿수 득점의 금자탑을 쌓은 한국 선수들 |language=ko |date=11 December 2017 |publisher=Football Tribe |access-date=3 June 2020}} After a successful season with Royal Antwerp, Seol moved to Anderlecht in the same league. He scored a hat-trick in the space of 12 minutes in the 2001 Belgian Super Cup.{{cite web |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20171129100030/http://www.hbvl.be/cnt/oid142279/archief-anderlecht-pakt-supercup |url=http://www.hbvl.be/cnt/oid142279/archief-anderlecht-pakt-supercup |title=Anderlecht pakt Supercup |language=nl |publisher=Het Belang van Limburg |date=4 August 2001 |archive-date=29 November 2017 |access-date=3 June 2020}} He also became the first South Korean player to score in the qualifying round of the UEFA Champions League.{{cite web |url=http://www.hani.co.kr/arti/sports/soccer/139319.html |script-title=ko:설기현, 험난했던 영국 프리미어리그 입성 |language=ko |publisher=The Hankyoreh |date=7 July 2006 |access-date=3 June 2020}} He won the 2003–04 Belgian First Division with Anderlecht.{{cite web |url=https://www.rsssf.org/tablesb/belg04.html |title=Belgium 2003/04 |first=Luc |last=Nackaerts |date=26 January 2005 |website=RSSSF |access-date=3 June 2020}}

In August 2004, Seol moved to England, joining a Championship club Wolverhampton Wanderers.{{cite web |url=https://news.joins.com/article/2491217 |script-title=ko:울버햄튼의 영원한 기억…'쎄올(Seol)' |language=ko |publisher=JoongAng Ilbo |date=30 October 2006 |access-date=3 June 2020}} The Wolverhampton manager at the time, Glenn Hoddle, preferred Seol as one of his first-choice forwards, using him in various roles such as striker, attacking midfielder and winger.{{cite web |url=https://news.chosun.com/site/data/html_dir/2005/01/21/2005012170143.html |script-title=ko:울버햄튼 감독, "설기현 최고 멀티플레이어" 극찬 |language=ko |publisher=The Chosun Ilbo |date=21 January 2005 |access-date=3 June 2020}}

Disappointed by the failure of Wolves' promotion, Seol sought Premier League clubs interested in him before the 2006 FIFA World Cup despite having two years left on his contract. He was reported as saying "At this stage, I'm frustrated not to be in the Premiership. I think there will be some good news after the World Cup."{{cite news |url=http://www.koreaherald.co.kr/SITE/data/html_dir/2006/06/20/200606200025.asp |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060622001929/http://www.koreaherald.co.kr/site/data/html_dir/2006/06/20/200606200025.asp |archive-date=22 June 2006 |title=Seol Ki-hyun looking to Premier League |publisher=The Korea Herald |date=20 July 2006 |access-date=31 December 2013}}

Seol eventually joined newly promoted Premier League club Reading on 12 July 2006 for a reported transfer fee of £1.5 million.{{cite news |title=Coppell reveals Seol exit reason |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/teams/r/reading/6988706.stm |access-date=27 September 2020 |work=BBC Sport |date=11 September 2007}} He was voted the Reading Player of the Month for August by fans after showing great performances early in the season.{{cite news |title=Seol voted as Reading player of the month |date=6 September 2006 |url=http://www.the-afc.com/en/media-releases/20680/ |archive-url=https://archive.today/20131231234419/http://www.the-afc.com/en/media-releases/20680/ |url-status=dead |archive-date=31 December 2013 |publisher=AFC |access-date=31 December 2013}} On 16 September 2006, he scored his first Premiership goal in a 2–1 win over Sheffield United.{{cite news |title=Sheff Utd 1–2 Reading |date=16 September 2006 |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/5330044.stm |publisher=BBC Sport |access-date=27 April 2007 |location=London |first=Sarah |last=Holt}} On 1 October 2006, he scored his second goal for Reading in a 1–0 win over West Ham United.{{cite news |title=West Ham 0–1 Reading |date=1 October 2006 |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/5373482.stm |publisher=BBC Sport |access-date=27 April 2007 |location=London |first=Dan |last=Warren}} His third goal for Reading, his first at home, came on 18 November 2006 in the 2–0 win against Charlton Athletic.{{cite news |title=Reading 2–0 Charlton |date=18 November 2006 |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/6138910.stm |publisher=BBC Sport |access-date=27 April 2007 |location=London}} However, his performance was not consistently kept during the rest of the season. He scored his fourth goal in the last game of the season against Blackburn Rovers.

=Fulham=

Seol left Reading for Fulham on 31 August 2007 for an undisclosed fee on a three-year contract, with Liam Rosenior going the other way.{{cite news|url=http://www.readingfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0,,10306~1103805,00.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120415131858/http://www.readingfc.co.uk/page/NewsDetail/0%2C%2C10306~1103805%2C00.html |archive-date=15 April 2012 |title=Rosenior signs as Seol departs |publisher=Reading |date=1 September 2007 |access-date=31 December 2013 |url-status=dead}} Reading boss Steve Coppell admitted that strained relations between him and Seol led to the move.{{cite news |date=11 September 2007 |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/teams/r/reading/6988706.stm |title=Coppell reveals Seol exit reason |publisher=BBC Sport |access-date=13 September 2007 |location=London}}

After his manager Lawrie Sanchez was replaced by Roy Hodgson, Seol wasn't chosen as Hodgson's player during the rest of the season. He scored his first goal for Fulham in a 2–1 defeat to Hull City on 16 August 2008,{{cite news |url=http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/football/eng_prem/7551167.stm |title=Hull City 2–1 Fulham |publisher=BBC Sport |date=16 August 2008 |access-date=14 September 2009 |location=London |first=John |last=May}} but he still didn't show something special the next season. On 14 January 2009, he signed an initial six-month loan move to Al-Hilal in Saudi Arabia with a view to moving permanently.{{cite web |url=https://www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/sports/2009/01/136_37836.html |title=Seol Moves to Saudi Club |date=14 January 2009 |access-date=3 June 2020 |publisher=The Korea Times}} However, he stated that he desired to stay at Fulham to win his place in the squad at the end of his loan deal.{{cite news |url=http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11681/5403353/ |publisher=Sky Sports |title=Seol to return to Fulham |date=27 June 2009 |access-date=3 June 2020}}

Seol scored his second goal for the club in a Europa League qualifier against FK Vėtra on 30 July 2009, but he failed to made a twist for his status.{{cite news
