Legacy of Peace on the Pitch: Park Kyu-nam, Former President of Seongnam Ilhwa and Architect of 7 K-League Titles, Passes Away
[Society/CTN] Reporter Geum-hyun Ga = Former President of Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma, Park Kyu-nam (former Vice President of the K-League), who led the club to an unprecedented seven K-League championship titles and shaped the golden age of Korean professional football, passed away on May 25, 2026, at the age of 90.
The 'Seonghwa Ceremony' (a sacred ascension ritual), marking his final journey, was solemnly observed on the morning of May 28 at the Asan Medical Center Funeral Home in Seoul. The ceremony was attended by the bereaved family, officials from the Family Federation for World Peace and Unification (FFWPU), and prominent figures from the football world and various sectors to honor his monumental achievements and express deep condolences.
During the ascension address, Song Yong-cheon, Regional President of FFWPU Korea, emphasized, "President Park Kyu-nam dedicated 25 years of service to the Seongnam Ilhwa Football Club, marking a milestone in sports ministry that began with his early days in pioneering evangelism and pastoral work. He spent his entire life in public service and deep faith, culminating in his devotion to 1,000 overnight prayer vigils at Cheonshimwon. Let us inherit his sacred life and legacy of loyalty."
The 'Seonghwa Ceremony' is a unique ritual of the Family Federation that views the passing of a believer not as an occasion for despair or sorrow, but as a sacred return to the bosom of God and a new beginning. According to the doctrine, human life is divided into three stages: 10 months in the womb, 100 years on Earth, and an eternal life in the spiritual world after death. Since earthly death marks the start of eternal life, it is viewed as a celebration, which is why vibrant celebratory wreaths, rather than somber funeral flowers, adorn the hall.
A Monumental Achievement: Seven K-League Titles Built on Grit and Leadership
The late President Park Kyu-nam was a founding member of Seongnam Ilhwa Chunma and managed the club for 25 years. Despite the harsh conditions of relocating the club's home ground twice—from Seoul to Cheonan, and finally to Seongnam—he always stood by the training grounds, breathing the same air as his players. His dedication culminated in an unprecedented myth of seven K-League titles. Furthermore, as Vice President of the K-League, he laid the institutional foundation for modern professional football in Korea, serving as a reliable pillar for the sport's national development.
His deep connection with football stemmed from the special trust and mandate given by FFWPU Founders, Rev. Sun Myung Moon and Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon. As an elder of the church, the late President took full operational control of the club, using his gentle yet steadfast leadership to transform Seongnam Ilhwa into Asia's premier football powerhouse of the era.
The 'Peace Cup' and Pyongyang Match: Realizing Sports Peace on the Field
Rev. Sun Myung Moon and Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon viewed football not merely as a sport, but as a powerful tool for human harmony and world peace. The late President Park was the core protagonist who translated this vision onto the pitch.
A prime example of this philosophy was the 'Peace Cup,' an international club football tournament held biennially in South Korea starting in 2003. World-renowned clubs like PSV Eindhoven, Tottenham Hotspur, and Olympique Lyonnais participated. In 2009, the tournament was held in Madrid and Andalusia, Spain, with a total prize pool of 4 million Euros, captivating global football fans. Seongnam Ilhwa also stood shoulder-to-shoulder with world-class teams as Korea's representative.
The footsteps of peace football also breached ideological barriers. In November 2009, 'Atlético Sorocaba,' a Brazilian professional club acquired by the Family Federation, played a historic friendly match against the North Korean national team at the Kim Il Sung Stadium in Pyongyang. As the first Western professional club to play an official match in Pyongyang before a crowd of 100,000, FIFA highly praised it, stating, "Sorocaba opened the closed walls of North Korea."
A Pulse of Peace Echoing from Pyongyang (2009) to Suwon (2026)
The peace vision of bridging the two Koreas through football remains vibrant in 2026. Most recently, in May 2026, North Korea's 'Naegohyang Women's Football Team' visited South Korea to compete in the AFC Women's Champions League, delivering a thrilling match at the Suwon Sports Complex.
This historic visit marked the first time in about eight years that a North Korean sports delegation set foot on South Korean soil, and the first time in 12 years for women's football. The passion for peace football that filled Pyongyang's Kim Il Sung Stadium in 2009 has been rekindled 17 years later in Suwon. Amidst strained inter-Korean relations, the common language of football has once again opened the channels of communication.
An official from the Family Federation stated, "President Park Kyu-nam devoted his entire life to turning the grand vision of Founders Rev. Sun Myung Moon and Dr. Hak Ja Han Moon—to achieve world peace through sports—into a living reality on the ground. The seeds of peace he sowed on the pitch will be eternally remembered as a precious foundation for inter-Korean sports exchange."
