Daejeon Citizen is a professional football club based in Daejeon, South Korea. Founded in 1997, it is one of the few clubs in the Korean football league system that is owned by the local government. The club competes in the K League 2, the second tier of South Korean football.
The club was established as a community club, with the aim of promoting football culture and contributing to the local community's development. It was the first of its kind in South Korea, setting a precedent for other local governments to establish their own football clubs. The club's name, "Citizen", reflects its community-oriented philosophy.
Daejeon Citizen's home ground is the Daejeon World Cup Stadium, a legacy of the 2002 FIFA World Cup co-hosted by South Korea and Japan. The stadium, with a seating capacity of over 40,000, is a symbol of the club's ambition and potential.
In its early years, Daejeon Citizen had a successful run, winning the Korean FA Cup in 2001. This victory remains one of the club's most notable achievements, as it secured them a place in the 2002 Asian Club Championship. However, the club has struggled to maintain consistent success, often fluctuating between the K League 1 and K League 2.
Despite these challenges, Daejeon Citizen has produced several notable players who have gone on to represent the South Korean national team. These include Kim Eun-jung, who played in the 2006 World Cup, and Hwang In-beom, who represented South Korea in the 2018 World Cup.
The club's mascot, a character named "Citiz", is a popular figure among fans and the local community. The club also runs various community outreach programs, including football clinics for children and charity events.
Daejeon Citizen's colors are purple and white, symbolizing the club's passion and purity, respectively. The club's emblem features a football and a stylized representation of the city's name, reflecting its close ties with the local community.
Despite its ups and downs, Daejeon Citizen remains a beloved part of the local community and continues to strive for success on the football pitch. The club's history and philosophy embody the spirit of community football, making it a unique entity in the landscape of South Korean football.
