This away support initiative was organized to boost the squad’s morale in their first match of the season and to promote a football culture that engages citizens.

A club representative said, “Participating in the opening away match with our fans will be a great source of strength for our players,” and added, “We plan to deliver a strong performance from the very first match and grow step by step toward promotion to a higher league.” Meanwhile, on March 29, Chuncheon will hold its home opening match at Songam Sports Town.
