K League 1 2026 Round 31 Schedule and How to Watch

A woman in a blue sweater leans over a tablet showing a list on a living room table.

Two matches start together at 16:30 Korea time on October 9, 2026, so you cannot watch both live one after the other. K League 1 2026 Round 31 runs from October 9 to 11 (South Korea), with six matches. TV channels differ by fixture; Coupang Play is listed for all six.

Match times and channels for planning the weekend

Use the pairings below to match each fixture to its TV channel. All dates are in 2026, all times are Korea time, and home teams appear first.

A viewing plan for the featured fixture

If you plan to follow Seoul vs. Jeju, use JTBC SPORTS or the Coupang Play match listing for the October 10, 14:00 kickoff. The league selected this as its featured match, and each team won one of their earlier meetings this season. Use that record as background, then check match-day lineups to see who will play.

Access depends on where and how the match is watched

These are South Korean broadcast listings. If you are watching overseas, check the platform's availability guidance for the country of access. For TV, confirm that the channel is included in the subscription; for a stadium visit, consult the home club's ticket announcement for sale dates and seat prices.

Common viewing questions

Do the listed times include pregame coverage?

No. They are match kickoff times. Check the broadcaster's schedule for when its coverage begins.

Does the Coupang Play listing mean free viewing?

No. The listing does not establish that viewing is free, and the league preview gives no subscription fees or free-viewing conditions. Check the platform's match page for the applicable terms.

Before watching, select K LEAGUE 1 under Schedule on the official K League website, choose 2026 and October, and compare the fixture details with the broadcaster's or Coupang Play's listing.
