Jeju SK is bringing in Bayern Munich (Germany), the club of 'national team defender' Kim Min-jae, to its home ground.
Jeju officially announced on the 22nd that it will face Munich in an international friendly match, 'Audi Football Summit 2026', at Jeju World Cup Stadium at 8 p.m. on August 4. Kim Min-jae, currently playing for the 2026 North American World Cup, is also scheduled to visit Jeju as a member of Munich.
This marks the first time a top-tier world-class club has visited Jeju Island. In particular, it is an unusual move for Munich to hold a friendly match in a small- or mid-sized city without a large stadium capable of accommodating 50,000 to 60,000 spectators.
This matchup was driven by Munich's strong will to strengthen its youth development (R&G) partnership jointly promoted with Jeju SK and LAFC. Ahead of the main match, Munich's World Squad visited Jeju on the 19th and played a friendly against the Jeju U-18 team to warm up.
Jeju anticipates that Munich's visit to Korea will greatly boost the local economy. The club stated, "More than 10,000 domestic and international soccer fans will stay in Jeju for two to three days to watch the match," and expects significant promotional effects through global media.
Ticket sales schedules, which are expected to draw intense fan interest, will be divided into two rounds. The pre-sale, with 5,454 seats allocated, will be held on the 30th at 6 p.m. exclusively on the limited-edition trading platform KREAM. General sales will begin on the 14th of next month at 6 p.m. through Naver Sports and the KREAM ticketing page.
