The league was called the Hyundai Oilbank K League Challenge 2016 for sponsorship
reasons and was the second tier of the Korean league system. The league winners were
to be promoted to the K League Classic for the 2017 season, however the eventual winners
Ansan Mugunghwa FC were denied this privilege and their place went to Daegu FC,
the runners-up. The promotion play-off winner, Gangwon FC, entered into a play-off with
the 11th placed team in the K League Classic (Seongnam FC) for an additional K League
Classic spot, securing that place after winning the series on the goals away rule.
There was no relegation.

[*1] Ansan Mugunghwa FC, the club of the Korean National Police Agency, finished
as the K League Challenge winners (on goals scored), but were denied promotion.
The club decided to relocate from Ansan to Asan for the 2017 season, claiming Asan
was a more suitable venue, given the city was the home of the Police Training Institute
and Korea National Police University. However, the league regulations stated that any
club relocating to another city will not be eligible for promotion if it coincides with
the planned move.
[*2] Gyeongnam FC were deducted 10 points for involvement in a bribery scandal.
[*3] Chungju Hummel FC was disbanded after the end of the season.
[*4] Goyang Hi FC were renamed to Goyang Zaicro FC for sponsorship reasons. The club was
