The Korea Tourism Organization (KTO) said Monday it will introduce a K League-linked travel package in May, offering train-based trips designed to turn match-day visits into longer regional stays. The "K League Trip Day" program, developed with Korail Tourism Development and K League, was conceived in response to rising fuel costs that have increased the burden of car travel, while also aiming to boost local economies by converting fan travel into extended stays. The package has two formats. The first package targets traveling fans of Daejeon Hana Citizen, with a day trip option timed to home matches on May 5 against Incheon United and May 16 against FC Seoul. Trains will depart Yongsan Station for Seo-Daejeon Station, with two dedicated ITX cars reserved for fans and stocked with cheering banners and club character merchandise. Pre- and post-match itineraries include visits to local bakeries and commercial districts. Each departure accommodates 120 passengers on a first-come, first-served basis, for a total of 240 spots across both trips, with prices starting in the 80,000-won ($54.37)
