Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors II 1–1 Gyeongju KHNP
Korean K League 3 | 6 June 2026

Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors II and Gyeongju KHNP played out a hard-fought 1–1 draw at the Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors training ground on Saturday afternoon. The result left both sides searching for consistency in the early stages of the K League 3 season.

First Half: Clinical Start from the Visitors

Gyeongju KHNP struck first just before the half-hour mark. A swift counter-attack caught the Jeonbuk II defence out of shape, and forward Kim Sung-hoon slotted home from 12 yards after a precise through-ball from midfielder Park Ji-woo. The home side, featuring several young prospects from the Hyundai Motors academy, struggled to impose themselves on the game in the opening 45 minutes, managing only one shot on target.

Second Half: Jeonbuk II Fight Back

Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors II came out with renewed intensity after the interval. Manager Kim Do-hyun made a tactical switch, pushing wing‑back Lee Jae‑hyuk higher up the pitch. The change paid off in the 58th minute when a corner kick was half‑cleared and fell to Lee, who rifled a left‑footed volley into the far corner. Both teams pushed for a winner but were unable to break the deadlock in a scrappy final half‑hour.

Standout Performers

For the hosts, goalkeeper Park Sang‑woo made three smart saves to keep his side in the contest. Gyeongju’s central defensive duo of Kim Min‑soo and Choi Hyun‑woo were solid, limiting Jeonbuk to speculative efforts from distance.

Table Impact

The draw leaves Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors II in mid‑table with seven points from five matches, while Gyeongju KHNP sit two places below them on six points. Both teams will look for a winning return when they resume league action next weekend.
