Chung Mong-gyu (62), chairman of the Korea Football Association (KFA), is scheduled to attend the National Assembly. Hong Myung-bo (55), the coach of the Korean national soccer team, is also expected to attend the meeting.
Chairman Chung Mong-kyu plans to respond to pending questions held at the National Assembly’s Culture, Sports and Tourism Committee with director Hong Myung-bo on the 24th.
The stylistic committee meeting will focus on issues surrounding the operation of the Korea Football Association and the process of appointing a coach.
Earlier on the 5th, the Culture and Sports Committee adopted not only Chairman Chung Mong-kyu and head coach Hong Myung-bo, but also technical director Lee Im-saeng and former chairman of the Power Reinforcement Committee Jung Hae-sung as witnesses. In particular, Park Joo-ho, a former member of the Korea Football Association’s power reinforcement committee who exposed the internal operational problems of the Korea Football Association in July, will attend as a witness.
In February this year, after Jurgen Klinsmann left the Korean national team, the coach position remained vacant for a while. Until now, Hwang Sun-hong, the current coach of Daejeon Hana Citizen, led the team temporarily, and the two games in March were played under his command. Then in June, Kim Do-hoon temporarily led the national team.
And in July, the KFA announced Hong Myung-bo as its official coach. The decision sparked a great controversy among soccer fans. Park Joo-ho, the former national soccer player, even expressed his thoughts for more than an hour, raising procedural issues through his YouTube channel. 메이저놀이터
