It was the appeal of the candidate Shin Moon-sun. On the 26th, the 55th Korea Football Association (KFA) presidential election was held at the Korea Football Center in Sinmun-ro, Seoul. For the first time in 12 years since 2013, the chairman of the KFA will be elected through elections.
Candidate Shin stood on the podium for the second time after candidate No. 1 Chung Mong-kyu in the announcement of the opinion, which began at 1 p.m. Candidate Shin, who was registered as the third candidate, did a variety of activities, including professional soccer player (merit), broadcast commentator, university professor, and administrator (CEO Sungnam). Candidate Shin "I was happy during the campaign. Many soccer players enjoyed sharing their pledges and visions for the future of Korean soccer. Presenting a pledge, he shared the evaluation of Chairman Chung, the previous executive, and administrative and financial problems. The association, which has led the executive for 12 years, has fallen into negative images such as incompetence, unfairness, and cartels. In addition to criticism such as escort and show of hands, he continued to reform and play tricks. For this reason, he was judged by a specific audit through the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism. The Fair Trade Commission, which should be punished under the association's articles of association, turned a blind eye to Chung's candidacy. I will wash my teeth and lead them to be fair and transparent. We will make sure that the footballers are the shareholders and the people are the owners of the association."
To this end, candidate Shin promised to resolve tensions with the government, reform the professional soccer federation, and independence of the referee federation. He then said he would create an association in which footballers, not handshaking, are the owners, an association that does not care about the results of the national team's game, and an association that can become a representative player even if it is dull and blank.
Last but not least, candidate Shin will create an association that makes money. Renewal work is the new chairman's top role. I'll make money. I won't be buried in winning and losing, but I will be judged by my work and achievements"We will make sure that the pledge presented is carried out to the best of our ability. Please empower me to complete the 'Again 2002' project.

If there is no majority vote, the final round will be held between the first and second places in the first round. In the final round, candidates with multiple votes will become the chairman. If it continues until the final vote, the winner will be elected only after 6 p.m.
It was an election campaign with a lot of talk and a lot of trouble. Initially, the presidential election was scheduled to be held on the 8th of last month. However, it was postponed in a surprise move on the 7th, a day before the election, when the court cited Huh Jung-moo's application for an injunction against the KFA. The election date has been rescheduled for January 23. However, as candidates Huh Jung-moo and Shin Moon-sun protested again, all members of the election management committee resigned, and the second election was also canceled.
With the new KFA election management committee organized, there was another twist. The government's `breathing' ran wild even before the election. The Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism conducted a specific audit last year and demanded the KFA to impose severe disciplinary measures beyond the suspension of Chung Mong-gyu. Candidate Huh Jung-moo and Shin Moon-sun have also been in question.
The KFA filed an application for suspension of execution along with an administrative lawsuit. This time, the court ruled in favor of the KFA. It has decided to cite an application for suspension of execution. With all the controversy raised 'controversy' removed, the election was held after a long hiatus.
The official election campaign, which began on the 16th, ended at midnight on the 25th. The journey of the three candidates who have been throughout the country has also come to an end. Candidate Chung Mong-gyu, who is seeking the fourth term, pledged to restore KFA's trust through intensive reform and communication, enhance the international status and competitiveness of Korean soccer, complete the divisional promotion system, and complete and independent Korea's soccer center.
Candidate Huh Jung-moo presented five keywords under the banner of 'Enjoyable Challenge': companion, fairness, balance, transparency, and fostering. Candidate Shin Mun-seon advocated 'Working CEO'.
