Paju Frontier, a new team in K League 2, is set to unveil variable seats for the first time.

Paju will face Gimpo FC in a Hana Bank K League 2026 Round 13 home match at Paju Stadium at 4:30 p.m. on the 25th. The two teams, who last met in K League 3 during the 2021 season, are set to face each other again on the K League 2 stage for the first time this year.

Paju currently sits in 12th place in the league with 4 wins, 2 draws, and 5 losses (14 points). The gap with their opponent, 7th-place Gimpo (17 points), is not large. A victory could erase the points difference.

Notably, in this match, Paju will introduce variable seats for the first time in the club's history to bolster the team. The total capacity is 300 seats. Of these, 200 seats are standing areas, while the remaining 100 seats are installed for fans to sit and watch the game.

This installation came earlier than expected. According to Paju officials, the club has received consistent requests from Paju fans, and Paju City officials have also made significant efforts to install the variable seats. Additionally, the club received positive evaluations for the variable seats at Suwon FC and Seongnam FC, leading to rapid implementation. A Paju official explained, "The variable seats were installed about 2 to 3 weeks earlier than planned."

Through the variable seats, Paju fans can now enjoy the players' performances more vividly from a closer distance, directly behind the goalposts. The sense of presence and immersion is bound to increase. This will also have a positive impact on the players. Hearing fans' cheers from such close proximity will be a great source of strength.

Paju plans to further elevate the atmosphere and cheering culture of home games through the introduction of variable seats. This is not merely an addition of seats but can be interpreted as the club's intention to get closer to its fans. Paju drew against Cheongju and Cheonan City in their previous two matches. While they failed to secure a win, the consistent accumulation of points is a positive sign.

Paju head coach Gerard Nuss Casanova deployed a 4-3-3 formation for this match. Borja Bastón, Lee Jun-seok, and Lee Je-ho will start as the front three. Yoo Jae-jun, Luke, and Choi Beom-kyung will anchor the midfield. The back four consists of Kim Min-seong, Bonilla, Kim Hyun-tae, and Lee Taek-geun. Bonilla, who returned from injury in the recent away match against Cheonan, led the defense steadily.

Additionally, goalkeeper Kim Min-seung, who was recently selected for the overseas training roster in preparation for the Asian Games, has boosted the team's morale. Kim Min-seung, the first player in Paju's history to be called up to the national team, is scheduled to join the Jin Haeng-doe-neun (CEO) team's training camp in Bangkok, Thailand, starting from the 30th.
