The club was originally founded in 1945 as Gyeongseong Electric Football Club (Korean: 경성전기 축구단) but was dissolved in 1950 due to the Korean War.[1] They were later re-established in 1962 as the KEPCO Football Club (Korean: 한국전력 축구단).[2][3] From 2001, the team was re-established again, this time as KHNP FC (Korean: 한국수력원자력 축구단).[4] Based in Daejeon, the club joined the semi-professional Korea National League, known at the time as the K2 League, in its inaugural season in 2003.[5]
As Daejeon KHNP, they were runners-up in the 2010 National League, losing to Suwon City in the playoff final after finishing the first stage of the league in first place.[6][7]
Ahead of the 2013 season, the club relocated to Gyeongju.[8] Rebranded as Gyeongju KHNP, they were National League runners-up again in 2013 and 2015 before becoming champions for the first time in 2017.[9]
They successfully defended their title in 2018 but failed to gain a third in 2019, finishing as runners-up following a 2-0 defeat by Gangneung City in the championship final.[10]
Gyeongju KHNP joined the newly relaunched K3 League in its inaugural season after it absorbed the National League in 2020. They finished the 2020 season as runners-up.[11]
In 2016, Gyeongju KHNP FC and the mayor of Gyeongju announced that a women's football team would be established alongside the existing men's team.[12] Gyeongju KHNP WFC was formally launched in 2017.[13]
