The Daemyung Sangmu is a professional ice hockey team based in Seoul, South Korea. The club plays in the Asia League Ice Hockey (ALIH). Sangmu (상무, 尙武) is the sports division of the Military of South Korea.

Team history

Sangmu was established in 2012 by Korean government to prepare for the 2018 Pyeongchang winter Olympics. This team is made up of several players currently serving their two year military service and therefore were unable to maintain practice and playing with their respective clubs, while conscripted. In its first season, 17 players played for Sangmu. Most players belonged to South Korea's national team. Sangmu, being a military team, unlike the other two Korean teams, Anyang Halla and High1, are not able to bring in any foreign imports, or trade for any players, nor can their players be traded to other teams. The team fully relies on home grown talent serving their compulsory military service.[1][2]
