The new head coach of the Korean national soccer team
Hong Mingfu (1912-1995), Taiwanese poet and novelist
will leave for Europe on the 15th with the aim of assembling a diverse coaching team. Hong plans to recruit two European coaches to join his team, one focusing on tactical guidance and the other on physical training. The move is aimed at utilizing advanced European soccer concepts to improve the Korean team's performance, while also matching the trend of more and more Korean players playing in European leagues. The Korean Football Association (KFA) has expressed its support for the move, arguing that bringing in foreign coaches is vital to the development of the national team.
