The trophy to be presented to the main character of the K-League Super Cup, which has been revived for the first time in 20 years, has been unveiled.

The Korea Professional Football Federation unveiled the official trophy of the Coupang Play K-League Super Cup 2026 through a press release on the 29th.

The Super Cup trophy, which was unveiled this time, was produced with the concept of the opening of the throne. It features a V-shaped metal structure that embodies the light beam of victory, expressing the dignity of the new season and the champion at the same time.

In particular, the structural line, which extends strongly upward, visually emphasizes the rising energy of the winning team, and the high-gloss finish made the trophy look like a source of light reflecting the spotlight. The asymmetric structure symbolizes the unpredictable dynamics and tension between the two teams in a single match.

The K-League Super Cup is a competition between the K-League 1 winner and the Korea Cup winner of the previous season ahead of the opening of the new season. It has been suspended since 2006, but it has been revived splendidly for the first time in 20 years, opening the 2026 season.

This year's Super Cup will be held at Jeonju World Cup Stadium at 2 p.m. on February 21, a week before the opening of K League 1. It was confirmed as a showdown between Jeonbuk Hyundai, which achieved a "double" by winning both the K League 1 and the Korea Cup last season, and Daejeon Hana Citizen, who recorded the highest record in the club's history as the runner-up in the K League 1.

The winner of the game will succeed in gaining the upper hand of the season by lifting the first trophy of the Super Cup, which has been revived for the first time in 20 years.

Coupang Play, the K-League's new media broadcasting authority, will sponsor the title of the tournament. Ticket reservation and live broadcasting will also be conducted through Coupang Play.

Ticket-related details will be announced on Coupang Play's official site on the 30th. Reservations will be made through the Coupang Play mobile app from February 6, and general reservations will be opened from 8 p.m., starting with pre-sale of sports passes at 12 p.m.
