The K3 League, the third division of adult soccer organized by the Korea Football Association, will open this weekend.
The Korea Football Association said on the 27th, "The K3 League in the 2025 season will start with seven games in the first round on March 1 and 2."
Fifteen teams will participate in this season's K3 League.
One team was reduced as Hwaseong FC, which participated in the K3 League last year, converted to a professional team and participated in the K League 2 starting this year.
The regular league will be held in 30 rounds (one team break in each round) until November this year, and the winning team and the league performance will be determined only by league performance without a separate playoff.
The 15th-ranked team will be demoted to the K4 League next season. The 14th-ranked team will have a showdown with the second-ranked team in the K4 League after the regular season.
The promotion system against the top league K League 2 has not yet been applied, and the 2027 promotion and relegation teams will be decided based on the 2026 season performance.
On the 1st, Samiljeol, Kim Seung-hee's Daejeon Korail, who has been at the helm for 18 years, will face Ulsan Civic Football Team led by Yoon Kyun-sang, who has been in charge of the team for six years since its foundation.
Pocheon Civic Football Team under new coach Kim Joon-tae and Paju Civic Football Team, where coach Lee Eun-no returned, will also face off.
In addition, Yangpyeong FC will bring Gangneung Citizens' Soccer Team and Busan Transportation Corporation will bring Yeoju FC home.
On the 2nd, the defending champion Siheung Civic Football Team will play a home game against Chuncheon Civic Football Team, and Siheung will return to Jeongwang Stadium, a home stadium that was not used last season due to hybrid grass construction, to play the opening game.
Jeonbuk Hyundai N (Jeonbuk Hyundai B Team), which won the K4 League last year and was promoted to the K3 League, will play Gimhae FC 2008 (Kimhae City Hall Football Team), which recently completed its incorporation and changed its team name.
