The election for the president of the Korea Football Association, which was suspended due to a court decision, will be held on the 23rd.

The Korea Football Association's Election Management Committee said it will hold an election for the president of the association on the 23rd, saying it is regrettable but respects the court's decision to suspend the election.

We plan to draw back the electors to draw up the controversial voter list on the 12th and allow them to read the voter list for the next three days.

After checking and revising personal information, the electoral list will be finalized on the 16th, and the campaign period will be until the 22nd, the day before the election.

The Seoul Central District Court decided to suspend the election on the 7th, a day before the election of the association's president, accepting an application for an injunction against the election ban from candidate Huh Jung-moo.

At the time, the court found that there was a significant procedural violation that would significantly violate election fairness and affect the outcome.

In particular, 194 electors selected by lottery pointed out that if the election proceeds as it is, it is likely to trigger subsequent disputes as it consists of procedures in which transparency and fairness have not been confirmed.
