The club from Seogwipo has only ever won the K-League championship once, back in 1989 (as Yukong Kokkiri), but surged back up the table from 14th in 2009 to claim an ACL place when second to FC Seoul. They lost the championship final over two legs 4-3 on aggregate.
Melbourne Victory have faced Korean opposition four times previously in their two ACL campaigns. They lost both times to eventual champions Seongnam Ilhwa Dragons, 2-0 at home and 3-2 away, while in the 2008 campaign, Melbourne beat Chunnam Dragons 2-0 at home, and drew 1-1 away.
