The Hyundai Horang-i club (which means Hyundai Tigers), owned by Korean corporation Hyundai, entered the K-League in 1984.
After winning their first championship in 1996, after rebranding themselves Ulsan Hyundai Horang-i, the club entered a dry spell. They finished runners-up in 2002 and 2003 as they started to emerge as a strong force, and won their second title in 2005.
Korean football legend Cha Bum-keun managed the club from 1991 to 1994.
