The Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC is a football franchise from Jeonju , South Korea . The franchise currently plays in K League 1 , the top division in South Korea.
history
The franchise was founded in 1993 as Wansan FC. However, the founder of the franchise, Oh Hyung-kun, had not raised enough money and the franchise was soon to go bankrupt. However, since they were keen to have a local franchise in the K-League, a donor was found in a local company. In 1994 the franchise entered the K-League and changed its name to Jeonbuk Buffalo FC . The franchise again lost a lot of money and couldn't meet sporting expectations either. As a result, the K-League withdrew Jeonbuk's trust, and in December 1994 Hyundai Motors stepped in as the sponsor and owner of the franchise.
In the first season in 1995, the team finished 5th. In the next few years, the club also placed in the midfield. In 2000, 2003 and 2005 the South Korean Cup could be won.
In 2002 the franchise reached the final of the Asian Cup Winners Cup and in 2006 won the AFC Champions League completely by surprise. The victory in the Champions League enabled the team to take part in the 2006 FIFA Club World Cup . At the end of the tournament they finished 5th.
In the league, however, there were still only placements in the midfield. That didn't change until 2009 when the team won the K-League. Also in 2010 she was third at the front. In 2011 the club became South Korean champions and advanced to the finals in the AFC Champions League. In 2012 they took 2nd place.
