Pyeongchang United Football Club (Template:Langx) is a semi-professional South Korean football club based in Pyeongchang County, Gangwon-do. The club was founded in 2021 and plays in the K4 League, the fourth tier of football in South Korea.[1]
History
Inaugural Season
On 19 November 2020 it was reported that Pyeongchang council was preparing to enter a team in to the 2021 K4 League season,[2] and on 10 November 2020 it was announced that the team had been founded.[3] Their inaugural season was unremarkable and they finished 7th, comfortably in the top half of the league table.[4]
2022 Season
Pyeongchang United's second season saw them finish 4th in the league and qualify for the promotion play-offs. They failed to beat Chuncheon Citizen, who ultimately won the play-offs to gain promotion to the K3 League.[5] In the Hana 1Q FA Cup Pyeongchang United reached Round 3 by beating K League 2 side Ansan Greeners.,[6] where they were knocked out by Daejeon Korail after extra time.
2023 Season
The season was less successful than the previous. They narrowly missed qualifying for the promotion play-off, and exited the Hana 1Q FA Cup in the second round.[7]
2024 Season
2024 saw their lowest ever league finish. However, the final league table was so tight that there was only a two point difference between 3rd and 10th place.[8]
2025 Season
Prior to the start of the 2025 season, arguably the leagues' most notable signing, Hwang Mun-ki, joined Pyeongchang United.[9] Hwang Mun-ki was a first team regular at K League 1's Gangwon FC, was included in the K League 1 team of the year, and had recent national team appearances. He joined on loan while he finishes his term of military/civil service.
The season looked to start off slow, but after 5 matches the team was still undefeated and in second place. They also had another noteworthy Korean FA Cup result when they beat Gyeongnam of K League 2,[10] but in Round 3 they were defeated by K League 2 Incheon United FC.[11]
