# Every Korean Series champion (1982–2025)

From the OB Bears in the league's first season in 1982 to the LG Twins in 2025: every KBO League Korean Series winner, with the losing team and the series score. The Haitai/Kia Tigers are the most successful team, with 12 wins in 12 appearances. In 1985 no Korean Series was held, because the Samsung Lions won both halves of the season.
