As Thomas Bach, chairman of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), admitted "Hardwalker". Yoo first visited the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, a higher-level organization. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism visited the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism at 10:30 a.m. on the 16th to solve a number of problems amid the long-standing conflict between the Korean Sports Association. He met with Minister Yoo In-chon and Vice Minister Jang Mi-ran to discuss pending issues, confirmed the consensus on the path that Korean sports should take, and was promised "full support". Officials from the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism gave meaning, saying, "It is the first time in eight years since 2016 that the president of the Korea Sports Council visited the Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism and made an election."
Chairman Yoo expressed his determination and ambition for the next four-year term through a press conference later in the day, and visited Jecheon Gymnasium in Chungcheongbuk-do, where the national table tennis team is in full swing on the 17th. He met with athletes and leaders such as Ahn Sung-guk, chairman of the Jecheon Sports Council, and Yeo Seo-jeong, a national gymnast belonging to Jecheon City Hall. For juniors, it's "Happy Yoo Seung Min Day"! Miracle Man!' He lifted up the placard and rejoiced at the election of Yoo Seung Min as if it were his job. Yoo visited the table tennis stadium to encourage junior players and deeply appreciate table tennis officials. Table tennis players cheered at the return of the former president of the Table Tennis Association, who returned as the chairman of the Korean Sports Council.

On the 20th, he will visit the grave of the late Cho Yang-ho, former president of the Korea Table Tennis Association (former chairman of Hanjin Group), located in Hagal-dong, Yongin, Gyeonggi-do. The late chairman Cho Yang-ho, who led the history of hosting the 2018 Pyeongchang Winter Olympics with his extraordinary love for sports, is a mentor who particularly cared for Yoo while he was alive. After becoming the 20th president of the Korea Table Tennis Association in July 2008, Chairman Cho provided 1 to 1.2 billion won every year for 11 years as the head of the Table Tennis Association until his death in April 2019, and cheered at the men's team bronze medal at the Beijing Olympics and silver medal at the London Olympics. Chairman Cho, who was particularly interested in international sports diplomacy and gave support to President Yoo when he challenged the IOC member at the 2016 Rio Olympics, rejoiced and encouraged President-elect Yoo to be elected as an IOC member. Chairman Yoo was appointed as the president of the Korea Table Tennis Association in honor of Yu Ji after Chairman Cho's death, and Korean Air, which was the chairman of the Korea Table Tennis Association, remained loyal as a sponsor of the association during Chairman Yoo's term. Players Shin Yoo-bin and Lee Eun-hye also won the bronze medal in the team event at the Paris Olympics.
The term of office of the 42nd chairman of the Korean Sports Council in Yoo Seung Min is from February 28 to February 2029, when the general meeting of representatives is held. Even before the start of his term in office, the wide-ranging communication of '40s sports leaders' with 'Chedeokji' has continued.
