Bucheon Stadium – stadium description

The stadium was built in the east of Bucheon in 2001, planned to become the primary football and athletic venue of the city. However local K League side Bucheon SK was relocated in 2006 by its owners to another place, leaving the ground with no anchor tenant.

Fans first protested in Korea and abroad (during 2006 World Cup) and then started rebuilding their club as Bucheon FC 1995. Thanks to the city allowing newly formed club to use the stadium on preferential conditions, the side managed to grow and make it to 2^nd division in 2013.
