Chung Mong-kyu, president of the Korea Football Association, has succeeded in serving his fourth consecutive term with more than 85% of the votes through criticism.

Chairman Chung was elected in the 55th presidential election of the Korea Football Association held at the Shinmun-ro Football Center in Seoul on the afternoon of the 26th, beating visiting professor of sports record analysis and former national soccer team coach Huh Jung-moo.

As a result, Chairman Chung, who has led the Korea Football Association since 2013, won his fourth term and will serve as the head of Korean soccer until 2029.

It was an overwhelming victory for Chung. 183 voters, or 95.3 percent of the 192 electors cast their ballots.

Chairman Chung dominated 156 votes, or 85.2 percent of 182 valid votes, excluding one invalid vote.

Chairman Chung said, "I ran hard for 50% plus one vote, and surprisingly, many people supported me," adding, "The election of the Korean Sports Council was 60%, but nearly 90% of the soccer association participated."

He added, "The first election was also quite thrilling because it was a come-from-behind victory, but this time, it seems to be more meaningful because it was a festival in which all footballers participated."

The term of the new president of the Korea Football Association was originally scheduled for the regular general meeting on the 22nd of last month, but it was delayed by more than a month as the election was disrupted twice due to former coach Huh's request for an injunction against the election.

However, the postponement of the election gave Chung a boost.

While opposition candidates continued their negative attacks on Chairman Chung, Chairman Chung traveled around the country to manage votes.

This is the background of responses from both inside and outside the soccer community that Chairman Chung is likely to be ahead of the election.

In fact, on the 24th, two days before the election, Chairman Chung also met with the coaches and referees in Seoul and then flew to Jeju to meet the soccer players.

Despite the forced troops, such as going around Gangwon Province the day before, they continued to communicate from Seoul to Jeju Island.

Chairman Chung reportedly met the electors during the campaign by traveling more than 15,000 kilometers, except for using public transportation such as airplanes and trains.

He also called and communicated with soccer players who did not have a schedule.

In the end, Chairman Chung's personality led to a landslide victory in the election.

Also, the failure of opposition candidates to change their minds with clear pledges seems to have affected Chung's landslide victory.

Candidate Huh Jung-moo and Shin Moon-sun, who were confident of turning the tables, won only 15 and 11 votes, respectively. 메이저사이트

Chairman Chung said, "In the end, I think communication is a problem," and added, "If I explain the association's decision-making process well to the fans, I think I can resolve the misunderstanding one by one."
