Bucheon FC 1995

Within weeks of the relocation of Bucheon SK, fans started a movement to form a brand new team in Bucheon, with an initial goal of creating a team to participate in the 2007 Korea National League season. However, the considerable financial requirements for entry to the National League, coupled with the launch of the K3 League in 2007, led to them readjusting their target and focusing on entry to the K3 League in 2008.

During the course of 2007, deals with several major sponsors, including Sportstoto, Daum and SK Energy, were negotiated. On 25 October 2007, the club's name, Bucheon FC 1995, was announced, and the club was officially founded on 1 December.

Bucheon FC 1995 became a professional club and gained approval to join the second-tier K League Challenge on 5 December 2012. In their first season as a professional club, they finished in seventh place.^[2]

In the 2025 K League 2 season, the club finished third in the regular season and then went on to defeat the K League 1 side Suwon FC in the promotion-relegation play-offs to win promotion to the top flight for the first time.^[3]

Bucheon's supporters' group is called Hermes, which started as supporters of Bucheon SK.^[4]

The club has a heated local rivalry with Incheon United, with whom they contest the '032 derby', with the name owing to their shared calling code (032).^[5] They are also one of the several South Korean phoenix clubs contesting 'relocation derbies' with clubs that once played in their city, and they contest their relocation derby with Jeju SK.^[6]
