Jeonbuk came from behind to win 2-1 in the second leg of the quarterfinals of the '2025 Hana Bank Korea Cup' held at Gangneung High1 Arena on the 27th, scoring two goals in the second half of the extra time alone. Jeonbuk, which was dragged by giving up the first goal to Kim Dae-won in the 8th minute of the second half, turned the game around with Thiago's equalizer in the 4th minute of the second half and Chumasi's come-from-behind goal in the 9th minute of the second half. Jeonbuk, which drew 1-1 at home in the first round, won 1 win, 1 draw, and a combined 3-2 victory. With this, Jeonbuk will reach the final for the first time in two years since 2023 and tap its sixth career championship.
Coach Chung, who attended the press conference on behalf of coach Foye, who left the game, said, `I think this is Jeonbuk's power. I think it's the part that Foyet made the team well when he took office this year. When the team was struggling, all the team members showed fantastic performances. I feel good because I think Coach Foye showed a good influence by taking charge of the team called Jeonbuk.
Jeonbuk, which was dragged by a loss early in the second half, tried to make a major change in the 23rd minute of the second half by excluding Compagno, Song Min-gyu, Lee Seung-woo, and Kim Young-bin. Coach Chung said, `Coach Foye was basically ready, and I always communicated with head coach Mauricio Tariko and tactical coach Diego Foye. Coach Tariko was a big help when the coach was sent off"The players who played in the second half of our team also have a lot of talent. It is safe for them to start at any time. I think we played this game because of the good harmony."

Jeonbuk lost 1-3 in the 27th round of the K League 1 against Pohang on the 24th, ahead of the match against Gangwon, ending its 22 consecutive league games undefeated. Coach Chung said, `Whether our team wins or loses, the way we operate will never change. We prepared the same for today's game. I think it will get better in the future because the coach and the players have good trust and trust relationship."
As for Chumashi, who scored `Actoral goal,' he is a bright player. I haven't been able to play much, but I prepared for the game in the right posture. Because of such a good attitude, there are good results. Not only Chumashi, but all players are training and playing in a good posture. That's the power of Jeonbuk."
Meanwhile, Foyet was sent off in the 10th minute of the second half, shortly after the first goal, for protesting with abusive language on the penalty decision. Coach Chung expressed his opinion that he was not in a situation to be sent off, saying, `Everyone may have learned about Coach Foye, but he is a person who expresses passionately to the players.' Regarding the Jeonbuk analyst's exit after the game, "There is nothing I can say about it."
