The Korean Sports Council has finally approved the inauguration of Chung Mong-gyu, the president of the Korea Football Association. It was generally known to take about a week, but it took about a month after the election.

The Korea Sports Association announced in a press release on the 28th, "The Korea Sports Association was promised to implement the 'Three Innovations Plan' through organizational reform for the protection of athletes and leaders and the development of soccer sports, and approved Chairman Chung Mong-kyu on the 27th by comprehensively considering regulations and procedures, legal interpretation, willingness to self-purify, and social public opinion."

As a result, Chairman Chung, who first became the head of the Korea Football Association in January 2013 and won three consecutive terms, will lead the Korea Football Association for four more years by 2029.

Chairman Chung won the election for the 55th president of the Korea Football Association held on the 26th of last month with a high vote share (85.7%) of 156 out of 183 votes. 메이저놀이터

Although it was the first primary in 12 years since 2013, it has succeeded in winning four consecutive terms, overwhelmingly beating candidates Huh Jung-moo (15 votes) and Shin Moon-seon (11 votes).

Chairman Chung has been criticized for the recent decline in the image of the Korea Football Association and controversy, but he will continue his duties again with the 55th election victory.

If he completes this term, he will be on par with Chung Mong-joon (1993-2009), honorary chairman of the Asan Institute for Policy Studies, who led the Korea Football Association for the longest 16 years in history.
