At the confirmation hearing for Prime Minister nominee Han Seongsook, the national football team’s recent poor performance was also mentioned. During the National Assembly hearing on the 26th, lawmakers exchanged humorous remarks while bringing up the team’s match performance and structural issues within the Korea Football Association.
Independent lawmaker Choi Hyeokjin pointed out the entrenched structure centered on certain universities and regions within the association, emphasizing the need for reform. In response, Han said it was a matter that had stirred strong public anger and expressed hope that it would be resolved well.
Those attending the hearing also lightened the mood by making remarks comparing coach Hong Myungbo and former coach Guus Hiddink. However, these remarks only raised controversies in the football world within the context of the political schedule and did not lead to specific policy discussions.
