A Modern Football Hub in an Industrial Heartland

Ulsan Stadium, also known as Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium to distinguish it from the larger Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium Main (home of Ulsan Hyundai), is a modern football-specific stadium in Ulsan, South Korea. Its construction began in 2003 and it was inaugurated on August 25, 2005.

Built as a secondary football venue for the city, it is located adjacent to the massive Ulsan Munsu Football Stadium Main (the 2002 World Cup venue and home of Ulsan Hyundai). Together, they form a major football complex in the city.

Architecture and Design

The stadium is a compact, modern arena designed primarily for football:

  • Intimate Design: A single-tier, continuous bowl on three sides and a two-tiered main stand, all built close to the pitch to create a loud and engaging atmosphere.

  • Modern Amenities: Features contemporary facilities for players, media, and spectators.

  • Part of a Complex: Its location within the larger Munsu Sports Complex allows for shared infrastructure and parking, making it an efficient and functional secondary venue.

Home of a New Community Club: Ulsan Citizen FC

The stadium found its defining tenant in 2018 with the founding of Ulsan Citizen FC.

  • Club Foundation: Ulsan Citizen was established in 2018 as a community-focused football club, aiming to represent the city’s residents alongside the corporate giant Ulsan Hyundai.

  • Perfect Home: The modern, midsize Ulsan Stadium was an ideal fit for the new club, providing a professional-grade home without the overwhelming scale of the 44,000-seat main stadium next door.

  • Building a Fanbase: The club competes in the K3 League (the third tier of Korean football) and has been working to build a local fanbase distinct from Ulsan Hyundai’s supporters, using this stadium as its intimate and accessible home ground.

Additional Tenant and Usage

The stadium also serves as the home ground for Ulsan Hyundai Mipo Dolphin, the city’s professional women’s football team that plays in the WK League.

Its role extends beyond these two clubs:

  • Youth and Amateur Finals: Hosts important youth tournaments, university matches, and local cup finals.

  • Training and Events: Used as a training base and for various football-related events within the sports complex.

Significance and Context

Ulsan Stadium represents an important model in modern sports planning: a secondary, high-quality stadium within a major sports complex. It provides a platform for growing clubs (like Ulsan Citizen), women’s football, and community events that do not require a 40,000+ seat arena.

For Ulsan, a city defined by heavy industry and a dominant K League 1 champion (Ulsan Hyundai), this stadium supports the grassroots and diversified football culture. It offers a more intimate and affordable live football experience, fostering a different kind of community engagement with the sport.

Ulsan Stadium stands as a vital and modern piece of football infrastructure, ensuring the sport thrives at multiple levels within one of Korea’s most passionate football cities.

Preface

1. Optimal Experience

With the growing popularity of nighttime sports events, professional competitions demand higher lighting quality. The glare from traditional fixtures can no longer meet athletes’ expectations for sensory experience. Leveraging breakthroughs in MECREE’s sports lighting technology, our precise light control and anti-glare designs enable athletes to perform at their peak and enjoy an exceptional sports experience.

2.Impact of Light Pollution

Issues caused by unnecessary nighttime lighting, such as light pollution and light trespass, are increasingly concerning and have led to rising public complaints. Amid growing environmental awareness, lighting designers must prioritize controlling “Light Pollution” and “Light Trespass.” We are committed to addressing this challenge through innovative optical technologies.

What kind of light is used in stadiums?

Currently common traditional stadium lights model for some international stadiums as below:
MVF406/1800W, HNF003, MVF401, MVF403, MVF024, EF-2000, YOA56305, YOAX56400, 2kW: HQI-TS 2000WDS, 2kW: HQI-TS 1000WDS, MHN-SA 2KW 400V/956, MHN-SB/HO 2KW 400V/956, LPW2000M/D, LPW1000MB/L, LPP2000MHN-SA, LPP2000MHN-SB.
There is big problem that traditional lamps can not cannot meet the needs of 4K and 8K high-definition broadcast and huge energy consumption.
With the strengthening of environmental lighting awareness and the pursuit of high-quality lighting, there is a trend to replace traditional lamps by high quality of LED Stadium Lights.
MECREE has launched the following series of LED Sport Stadium Lighting:

  1. R580 series stadium lights are designed for 160 feet to 1000 feet of lighting distances and 4K, 8K HD broadcasting.
  2. AFL series stadium lights are designed for lighting distances from 50 feet to 330 feet and improve the brightness uniformity.
  3. P73-L and A65 series stadium lights are designed for the precise light control needs of the North American and European markets. The Upward Light Ratio of the P73P73–L/A65 series LED stadium lights is 0%.

MECREE’s specially engineered precision lighting control is designed to meet the needs of such users. The polarized light range of 65-73° is defined as the P73-L and A65 series products, which deliver an unparalleled visual experience while offering access to thousands of IES profiles.

PRECISE CONTROL OF LIGHT 1

-OPTICS 10X BETTER

A65

Our precisely engineered optics of polarized light aim light directly onto the field of play, to shine uniformly and to minimize glare. Outdoor venues benefit from spill light control, no more skyglow and no more complaints from the neighbors.

COMPETITORS

1. Such light shield is useless,just misleading customers.
2. As tested it will cause 30% reduction of light output
3. While 70% still have high overflow
4. Unbearable strong glare
5. Waste energy,outdated reflective technology

PRECISE CONTROL OF LIGHT 1

-OPTICS 10X BETTER

REMOTE DRIVER

The power supply and lamp body can be mounted separately, reducing the withstand weight of the lamp pole and facilitating maintenance.

CONVENIENT INSTALLATION 3

-EASY CROSSARM REPLACEMENT

Customized crossarms are available to meet all your existing old poles without replacing the main rod, crossarms bolt directly to light pole, easy and accurate installation saves time, ensures performance, safety and reliability,also lower the budget.

How to accurately aim the lights in the stadium?

In current sports lighting projects, high-altitude light calibration is recognized as a major efficiency bottleneck. The process carries high safety risks, is prone to aiming deviations, and involves cumbersome installation and removal procedures, making it difficult to achieve the required uniformity.

MECREE’s innovative laser aiming mount was designed precisely to address these issues. It revolutionizes the workflow through three key advantages:

Easy Installation: With a simple design, it allows rapid mounting and dismounting, significantly lowering the operational threshold.

Precise Aiming: Ensures accurate laser alignment, fundamentally guaranteeing uniform illumination and compliance with lighting standards.

Efficient Operation: Reduces labor and time costs by up to 80%. Calibrating 200 fixtures at height previously took 20 days; now the same workload can be completed in just 4 days.

Choosing MECREE means choosing a safer, more precise, and highly efficient sports lighting solution.
