Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors FC (hereinafter Jeonbuk Hyundai) resonated with many fans in remembering the '80th Anniversary of Liberation Day.'

On the 16th, Jeonbuk Hyundai provided a meaningful time to commemorate the 'Gwangbok 80' anniversary with fans during the K League 1 home game against Daegu FC.

The 23,000 spectators at Jeonju World Cup Stadium held their breath at a special ceremony before the game began.

The protagonist of the ceremony was Philip Ahn Cuddy, the great-grandson of Korean independence activist Dosan Ahn Chang-ho.

He has been continuing the legacy of Dosan through interactions with descendants of independence activists and educational activities, making the meaning of the 80th anniversary of liberation more profound by visiting Jeonbuk Hyundai on this day.

Jeonbuk Hyundai, along with Philip Ahn Cuddy's ceremony, utilized AI-based video restoration technology to revive the image of Dosan Ahn Chang-ho on the LED screen.

As the warm smile of Dosan, appearing to greet fans and his great-grandson at Jeonju Castle, was reproduced, deep admiration-filled cheers and applause echoed throughout the stadium.

During halftime, a performance commemorating the 80th anniversary of liberation by Yoon Young-wan and Park Min-ju, students of Jeonbuk University, further intensified the atmosphere at the venue.

Moreover, the entrance tickets for the game were specially designed to commemorate the 80th anniversary of liberation.

After the game, Philip Ahn Cuddy expressed his gratitude, saying, "I am grateful and honored to be invited to this meaningful occasion," and added, "The passion and sincerity of the fans were deeply moving. I look forward to the day I can return to Jeonju Castle and will always be there whenever needed."
