The venue was the main center for sports events in the city, and along with Kirim Stadium in Pyongyang, it was one of the two venues used in the Gyeongsung-Pyongyang inter-city soccer tournament in the 1930s.The stadium was the location for mass celebrations of the end of Japanese colonial rule, as almost 250,000 citizens gathered at the venue on 15 August 1945, to celebrate the liberation of the peninsula.[2]       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4Additional construction was undertaken in 1962 to modernize the two existing venues as well as to create a swimming pool, volleyball courts and soft clay tennis courts. Floodlights were added to the baseball venue in 1966 and to the athletics venue in 1968 to allow for nighttime sporting events.Before its demolition, the athletics stadium was used as a flea market where all types of both new and second hand goods were sold. It formed part of the massive Dongdaemun shopping district, which had been active for 57 years.Facilities[edit][edit]The main multi-purpose stadium remained the main center for sports events in Seoul until the Seoul Sports Complex was built for the 1988 Olympic Games. It was the home venue for the South Korean national football team from the 1950s to the late 1980s, though it continued to be used into the 1990s until the last international match was played there, against Myanmar in 2000.The 30,000-seat main stadium also hosted some football matches including the quarter-finals at the 1988 Summer Olympics and many matches of the Korea Cup, an international football competition.[3]The inaugural match of the K League, the first professional football league in South Korea, was held at the athletics venue on 8 May 1983. Ilhwa Chunma (currently Seongnam FC), LG Cheetahs (currently FC Seoul), and Yukong Elephants (currently Jeju United FC) were based at the stadium until 1995, but with the decentralization policy in K League, they relocated away to their current stadiums in 1996.Others[edit]The inaugural match of the Korean baseball league was held at Dongdaemun Baseball Stadium in 1982.[citation needed]See also[edit]References[edit]External links[edit]1900s1910s1920s1930s1940s1948Arsenal Stadium, Champion Hill, Craven Cottage, Empire Stadium (medal matches), Fratton Park, Goldstone Ground, Green Pond Road, Griffin Park, Lynn Road, Selhurst Park, White Hart Lane1950s1960s1960Florence Communal Stadium, Grosseto Communal Stadium, L’Aquila Communal Stadium, Livorno Ardenza Stadium, Naples Saint Paul’s Stadium, Pescara Adriatic Stadium, Stadio Flaminio (final)1964Komazawa Olympic Park Stadium, Mitsuzawa Football Field, Nagai Stadium, Tokyo National Stadium (final), Nishikyogoku Athletic Stadium, \u014cmiya Football Field, Prince Chichibu Memorial Football Field1968Estadio Azteca (final), Estadio Cuauht\u00e9moc, Estadio Nou Camp, Jalisco Stadium1970s1980s1980Dinamo Stadium, Dynamo Central Stadium \u2013 Grand Arena, Central Lenin Stadium \u2013 Grand Arena (final), Kirov Stadium, Republican Stadium1984Harvard Stadium, Navy\u2013Marine Corps Memorial Stadium, Rose Bowl (final), Stanford Stadium1988Busan Stadium, Daegu Stadium, Daejeon Stadium, Dongdaemun Stadium, Gwangju Stadium, Olympic Stadium (final)1990s2000s2000Brisbane Cricket Ground, Bruce Stadium, Hindmarsh Stadium, Melbourne Cricket Ground, Olympic Stadium (men’s final), Sydney Football Stadium (women’s final)2004Kaftanzoglio Stadium, Karaiskakis Stadium (women’s final), Olympic Stadium (men’s final), Pampeloponnisiako Stadium, Pankritio Stadium, Panthessaliko Stadium2008Beijing National Stadium (men’s final), Qinhuangdao Olympic Sports Center Stadium, Shanghai Stadium, Shenyang Olympic Sports Center Stadium, Tianjin Olympic Center Stadium, Workers’ Stadium (women’s final)2010s2012Coventry Arena, Hampden Park, Millennium Stadium, St James’ Park, Old Trafford, Wembley Stadium (both finals)2016Est\u00e1dio Nacional de Bras\u00edlia, Arena Fonte Nova, Mineir\u00e3o, Arena Corinthians, Arena da Amaz\u00f4nia, Est\u00e1dio Ol\u00edmpico Jo\u00e3o Havelange, Maracan\u00e3 (both finals)2020s2020International Stadium Yokohama (both finals), Kashima Soccer Stadium, Miyagi Stadium, Saitama Stadium, Sapporo Dome, Tokyo Stadium2024Parc des Princes (both finals), Parc Olympique Lyonnais, Stade de la Beaujoire, Stade de Nice, Stade Geoffroy-Guichard, Stade Matmut Atlantique, Stadium Municipal, Stade Pierre-Mauroy, Stade V\u00e9lodrome2028SoFi Stadium, BMO Stadium, Rose Bowl, Levi’s Stadium, PayPal Park, Stanford Stadium, California Memorial Stadium2030sCoordinates: 37\u00b034\u203203\u2033N 127\u00b000\u203238\u2033E\ufeff \/ \ufeff37.56758\u00b0N 127.010595\u00b0E\ufeff \/ 37.56758; 127.010595       (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});after-content-x4"},{"@context":"http:\/\/schema.org\/","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki24\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Enzyklop\u00e4die"}},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"item":{"@id":"https:\/\/wiki.edu.vn\/en\/wiki24\/dongdaemun-stadium-wikipedia\/#breadcrumbitem","name":"Dongdaemun Stadium – Wikipedia"}}]}]
