Jeong Jeong-yong, managing director of Gimcheon, was disappointed.

Gimcheon lost 1-2 to Ulsan HD in the 33rd round and regular round final match of the 'Hana Bank K League 1 2024' at Munsu Football Stadium in Ulsan on the 6th. He took the lead in Mo Jae-hyun's first goal in the 21st minute of the first half, but allowed Ko Seung-beom in the 30th minute of the second half and Yago in the 35th minute.

Gimcheon, ranked second with 56 points, was five points apart from the leader Ulsan (61 points).

It came from behind to win against Gimcheon 2-1. Ulsan, which had six consecutive unbeaten games (5 wins and 1 draw) in K League 1, scored 61 points. He was the first to reach the 60-point mark. If the points against Gimcheon (55 points) are widened from 2 points to 5 points, they are one step closer to reaching the top.

Coach Chung said, `As a result, it was a disappointing game. I prepared well in many ways. But the game is 90 minutes long. The disappointing part is the loss of concentration in the second half. Nevertheless, the players did their best. The fans also cheered for us until the end. There is a chance for a challenge in the split. You'll get ready to sleep" he said.

Gimcheon enters the final round in second place. We will play five more rounds. Director Chung said, `There's nothing else. I'll follow you to the end. I had one experience last year. I'll focus on 5 games," he stressed.

Gimcheon won the last round of the K League 2 last year and was promoted to the first division. Defensive midfielder Kim Bong-soo played in all K League 1 games this season.

Coach Chung said, `Kim Bong-soo is the only one who plays in all games except goalkeeper Cho Hyun-woo. It is not easy to play in the entire game without injury. It's definitely improved. However, the unfortunate part is that he is physically warmed. I'll recover well and prepare for the next five games," he added.
