The K-League Hall of Fame was established in 2023 to honor the history and tradition of Korean professional football and to publicize the contributions of those who contributed to the development of the K-League. It operates in three categories: athletes, leaders, and contributors, and inductees are selected every two years.
The 2nd K League Hall of Fame" inductees include Yoo Sang-chul, who died in the player category, Kim Joo-sung and Kim Byung-ji Deyan in the leader category, former Suwon Samsung coach Kim Ho in the leader category, and Chung Mong-joon, honorary chairman of the Korea Football Association in the contributor category. At the first Hall of Fame in 2023, Choi Soon-ho, Hong Myung-bo, Shin Tae-yong, Lee Dong-gook, Kim Jung-nam, former coach, and late POSCO Honorary Chairman Park Tae-joon were inducted.
At this year's induction ceremony, various programs will be prepared to commemorate their performances and achievements as they welcome new inductees. Footballers with special ties to the inductees will take the stage to introduce the contributions of the inductees and read their recommendations. A video showing the past activities of the donors will also be screened.
The inductee will be awarded a trophy symbolizing the Hall of Fame induction along with a certificate of induction recording their achievements in the K League. The trophy is embedded with a solid gold medal engraved with the symbol of the Hall of Fame, adding to the meaning of the induction.
The induction ceremony will be broadcast live on Sky Sports, a soccer-oriented sports channel, and can also be watched through the official K-League YouTube channel.
