The South Korean national football team has faced an early exit from the 2026 FIFA World Cup. Coach Hong Myung-bo has already resigned.

What's the problem?

The Korean football community is struggling with a lack of leaders in their 30s and 40s. In Japan, many legends have transformed into leaders and are actively contributing to the development of football with a selfless attitude.

The secret to Japan's success

The secret to Japan's success lies in the dedication of their legends. Yoshida Maya and Minamino Takumi accompanied the national team, and Nakamura Shunsuke and Hasebe Makoto assisted coach Moriyasu Hajime.

The direction of Korean football

The Korean football community should take note of Japan's success. Many Korean legends are not supporting the national team, unlike in Japan. | Date | Match Result | | --- | --- | | 2025-11-18 | Korea 1-0 Ghana |
