In addition, the coaches' association mentioned matters such as Jung Mong-kyu's attempts to pardon athletes involved in match-fixing last year and the implementation of the K-League's U22 policy, actions that have sparked widespread controversy and criticism in the soccer world. Now, the protests outside the FA's headquarters show that fans have lost confidence in the FA's management and decision-making.
This kind of volatility in Korean soccer has an impact on Asian soccer and even world soccer. Particularly for China, which is in the same group as South Korea, the chaos within South Korean soccer is undoubtedly an opportunity. This incident shows the management problems of the senior management of the FA and the fragility of the whole system, and reminds other national soccer associations of the need to be more cautious and forward-looking in their management and policy making.
