Rumours of a sale of Orion's stake in the club fuelled in early 2022. In April 2022, Orion confirmed that active negotiations with a potential buyer, Dayone Asset Management, a subsidiary of Daewoo Shipbuilding & Marine Engineering, was ongoing.[1] The takeover was officially confirmed in May 2022, with the transfer of the entire club, players and staff to Dayone Asset Management.[2] Kim Seung-gi, who won two championships with Anyang KGC, was appointed as the head coach of the team.[3] On 24 June 2022, KBL officially approved the application of Dayone Sports as a member of the league, with a former player and coach, Hur Jae, being registered as the owner and manager of the club.[4]
On 25 August 2022, Dayone Sports officially revealed that the club would be named Goyang Carrot Jumpers.[5] In March 2023, due to financial problems, the team parted ways with sponsor Carrot Insurance and renamed themselves Goyang Day One Jumpers.[6]
