History
Summarize
Perspective
In 2003, the Seoul Metropolitan Government announced its plans to establish both a professional men's football club and a women's works football club in the following year.[1] Seoul City Hall W.F.C. was formally founded in February 2004 with a squad of 22 players, including nine members of the South Korean national women's team at the time.[2] The club's first manager was Seo Jung-ho.[3] The club achieved their first tournament victory in September 2004, beating INI Steel and Daekyo Kangaroos to the top spot in the league-format Unification Cup.[4] The club was one of the founding members of the WK League in 2009.[5]
Seoul WFC was at the centre of a controversy in 2013 when representatives of the other six clubs in the WK League claimed that striker Park Eun-sun was male and threatened to boycott the league if Park did not undergo a gender verification test.[6] The club stood by Park, accusing their rivals of violating her human rights and suggesting the allegations were merely a ploy to gain a competitive advantage by keeping Park, who had scored 19 goals in 22 games, out of the league.[7] Although the National Human Rights Commission advised the Korea Football Association to punish the coaches of the other teams, neither the KFA nor the WK League acted on the recommendations and as a result, Park left Seoul to join FC Rossiyanka.[8]
