National League and Cup Shocks
Incheon Korail were participants in the inaugural K2 League season in 2003, a competition they would go on to win in 2005 with a 4-2 aggregate victory over Suwon City.
The side developed something of a reputation as cup specialists, having knocked several K-League teams out of the Korean FA Cup tournament in the past. They have claimed victories over Bucheon SK, Chunnam Dragons, Incheon United and Suwon Samsung Bluewings (twice) in the tournament. They were semi-finalists in 2005, and reached the quarter-finals in 2001.

Famous quotes containing the words national, league, cup and/or shocks:
“It is accordance with our determination to refrain from aggression and build up a sentiment and practice among nations more favorable to peace ... that we have incurred the consent of fourteen important nations to the negotiation of a treaty condemning recourse to war, renouncing it as an instrument of national policy.”
—Calvin Coolidge (1872–1933)
“I am not impressed by the Ivy League establishments. Of course they graduate the best—it’s all they’ll take, leaving to others the problem of educating the country. They will give you an education the way the banks will give you money—provided you can prove to their satisfaction that you don’t need it.”
—Peter De Vries (b. 1910)
“I believe that water is the only drink for a wise man: wine is not so noble a liquor; and think of dashing the hopes of a morning with a cup of warm coffee, or of an evening with a dish of tea! Ah, how low I fall when I am tempted by them! Even music may be intoxicating. Such apparently slight causes destroyed Greece and Rome, and will destroy England and America.”
—Henry David Thoreau (1817–1862)
“Slavery is founded on the selfishness of man’s nature—opposition to it on his love of justice. These principles are in eternal antagonism; and when brought into collision so fiercely as slavery extension brings them, shocks and throes and convulsions must ceaselessly follow.”
—Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865)
