Playoffs
The wild-card games, up to two of them, are at the fourth-place club. That club is given a one-win advantage. If the first game is a draw, fourth place goes on to the semi-playoff.
The semi-playoff is five games. Games 1, 2, and 5 are at the third-place club. Games 3 and 4 are at the wild-card winner.
The playoff is five games. Games 1, 2, and 5 are at the second-place club. Games 3 and 4 are at the semi-playoff winner. The winner plays the regular-season winner in the Korean Series.
This desk does not carry a scoreboard for the league.
Korean Series
The procedures page sets seven Korean Series games. Games 1, 2, 6, and 7 are at the regular-season winner. Games 3, 4, and 5 are at the playoff winner.
