History
Sejong SA FC was founded on 7 January 2025 and began recruiting players to compete in the 2025 K4 League.[1]
Inaugural Season
They made their league debut on 22 February 2025 in an away match against Namyangju Citizen, which they lost 2–1.[2] They played their first home match the following week against Daegu FC B, resulting in a 1-3 loss.[3] They struggled to get off the mark and after the first 5 matches, their only point came from a draw against Seoul Jungnang FC.
