Minister of Culture, Sports and Tourism Yoo In-chon communicated on major pending issues in the sports world through a luncheon meeting with the Korean Sports Association's labor union.

Minister Yoo and the 19th executive branch of the Korean Sports Association's union had a luncheon at a restaurant near the National Museum of Modern and Contemporary Art in Seoul on the 25th. The unusual meeting between the sports association union and the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism took place at the suggestion of Minister Yoo In-chon. At the Korea Sports Association's labor union, about 10 executives, including Chairman Ji Won-seok, and former Chairman Kim Sung-ha attended, while at the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism, key officials from the sports bureau, including Minister Yoo, Sports Director Kang Soo-sang, and Sports Policy Director Kim Hong-pil, attended.

Immediately after the luncheon meeting, the labor union of the Korea Sports Association asked Minister Yoo In-chon and other officials of the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism to cooperate on major pending issues such as organization following the budget cut of the Korea Sports Association in 2025, response to the crisis in manpower reduction, improvement of the system to prevent privatization of the sports association (introduction of the labor director system, improvement of the presidential election system, minimization of unnecessary operation such as special assistant and TF team), lower salary compared to similar public organizations, and improvement of deficiencies in the personnel management system for public officials (indefinite contract workers)," he said, We delivered a message within the Korea Sports Council that we will provide maximum support so that the matters to be carried out in cooperation between labor and management can proceed smoothly as applicable.




The Korean Sports Association Labor Union completed the formation of a total of 29 new executives (24 inside and 5 outside) on the 18th after the election of the new chairman Ji Won-seok on the 13th, and will serve a two-year term until December 31, 2026.
