List of Korean FA Cup winners
This list shows the winners of South Korean national football cups.
Qualified teams
The Korean first national football competition, All Joseon Football Tournament, was founded in 1921 by Joseon Sports Council, and its senior division was also held since 1922. The Korean college clubs also participated in the senior division from 1927 to 1931, because the college division was temporarily abolished during that time. The host of the Joseon tournament was changed to the Korea Football Association since 1938, and the tournament was abolished in 1940 by Japan. After the end of the Japanese forced occupation, the KFA founded two national competitions, the Korean National Football Championship and the Korean President's Cup. Some semi-professional clubs converted as professional clubs according to the foundation of the K League in 1983, and boycotted the National Championship since 1990 due to the conflict with the KFA at that time. The current Korean FA Cup was founded in 1996, and two semi-professional cups were abolished not long after.Club | ||||
