Jeonbuk Buffalo was a South Korean professional football club. Lasting only one year in the K-League, the club was the predecessor to Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors. But Officialy K-League considerd Jeonbuk Buffalo as defunct club. So Jeonbuk Hyundai Motors can't include Jeonbuk Buffalo's history and statistics.

Jeonbuk Buffalo was established in January,1993 as Wansan Puma. Wansan is the old name of Jeonju in Chonbuk. Wansan Puma was scheduled to join 1993 season of K-League. But it was postponed one year due to draft boycott.

In 1994, Wansan Puma changed name to Jeonbuk Buffalo. Their one and only season in 1994 saw them gather only 14 points from their 30 matches, winning just three times and finishing last, before the club folded.
