I think that the K League begins this Saturday. I live in Jeongja so I believe that watching the Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma would be the closest team to me. I found they play at the Seongnam 2 Stadium. My question is, does anyone know where this stadium is at exactly and also where I can buy tickets. Thanks in advance!

I'd be very surprised if you couldn't buy them on the day.

I haven't been to a K League game but whenever I see it on TV the grounds seem to be at least 3/4 empty.

they have tickets for most games ... but you might need a korean id and a credit card. mrs super dave gets our tickets.

you could probably just walk in and buy tickets to most games, as already said, they're not often full unless it's a really, really important match (usually a finals game).

you dont have to worry about buying tickets in advance, most you will see at a game is 5000 people.

Besides the quality of the league is crap. It makes MLS look like the premiership.

Yeah OSU choked big time, dont rub it in,

still I used to referee in the US at the top am level in Texas even working some of the semi-pro leagues. I swear some of the DI ametuer teams I used to ref, especially the ones that were 90% Mexican could beat many of the K league teams

how'd a guy who lived in texas become a buckeye??? I'm from austin and I just can't understand it. Did you grow up in Ohio? Anyways, at least you guys had the opportunity to choke. UT choked themselves into the Alamo Bowl.
The K-League has come a long way in the last couple years and I honestly think this might be a breakthrough year for them. Suwon has almost sold out their first game of the year and from what I hear, other teams tickets sales are up.

How does it make the MLS look like the premiership?

In terms of quality the K-League is probably better than MLS

grew up in Ohio and went to undergrad school in Ohio, moved to Austin and went to grad school there in the mid 80s, wife is a UT alumn

Regarding the K League, I was watching "Football Focus" on ESPN in Thailand and their comments about Korean players and the Korean League were nothing but its a third or fourth rate league with that level players. I've been to a number of games and haven't been impressed.

MLS has done a better job developing talent and the quality has improved greatly over the past few years, they've also created a great atmosphere with their new stadiums. It feels awfully lonely at a K-League game where there are maybe 4 thousand people in a 40 thousand plus stadium
