[Anchor]
The election to select a new head of the Korea Football Association has been temporarily postponed a day ahead.

Candidate Huh Jung-moo's request for an injunction to ban the election was cited, and the court saw a serious "procedural violation" of the election.

Former national soccer team coach Huh Jung-moo, who voted for the 55th president of the Korea Football Association, pointed out the problems of election management one by one.

Not only did there not have any observers when drawing the voter list, but 21 out of 194 elected voters were unilaterally excluded because they did not receive a personal information consent.They suspected that the election management members of the

'Jeong Mong-gyu system' would support a specific person.

Candidate Huh Jung-moo applied for an election ban beyond a press conference, and the day before the election, the court accepted it.

The Seoul Central District Court stated that there is a "significant procedural violation" of the ongoing election.

I saw that the electors' draw was not transparent and fair, the Election Commission was not disclosed, and there was a possibility of a subsequent dispute.

The KFA is less than half an hour after the verdict,
I sent a short text message saying that the election date for the president of the
Association will be temporarily postponed, and that I will announce it as soon as the schedule is set.

From the electors' lottery to schedule adjustment, a 'review of the origin' is needed.

Chairman Chung Mong-kyu, who is seeking the fourth term, launched a kind of "winner" to donate 5 billion won to complete the Cheonan Football Center before the court ruling came out, but the election has been delayed and it seems to have lost some steam.

Another spark has also been created.

According to the association's articles of association, he must be "under the age of 70" on the day of the election to run for president, and candidate Huh Jung-moo will mark his 70th birthday on the 13th.The legal battle is expected to flare up again, whether candidate

Huh can step up and where the reason for the delayed election is.
