On the morning of the 15th, ahead of the first Power Strengthening Committee in 2024, soccer fans are holding a rally in front of the Football Association in Shinmun-ro, Jongno-gu, Seoul, calling for the dismissal of national soccer team coach Klinsmann and the resignation of Chung Mong-gyu, president of the Korea Football Association.
Football fans’ protests continued despite the rainy and inclement weather.
On the 15th, angry soccer fans gathered in front of the soccer hall where the Korea Football Association is located.
Even while it was raining, fans chanted, “The beginning of the reform of the Football Association… They expressed their dissatisfaction by displaying placards with phrases such as “Let Chung Mong-gyu and his associates resign en masse” and “Fire Jürgen Klinsmann.”
The protest started with four fans on the 13th, and fans continued their protest on the 14th.

Amid continued calls for the dismissal of national soccer team coach Jurgen Klinsmann, Korea Football Association President Chung Mong-gyu did not attend the meeting.
A man in his 40s who said he was a member of the civic group ‘Turnlight’ and a soccer fan said, “Even in the rain, we must convey the voices we have to convey. In order for Korean soccer to come back to life, they need to go out. “I can’t help it,” he said.
He continued, “Today the number will increase, and about 30 fans from all over the country will gather. “We will convey our opinions here until the Power Enhancement Committee ends,” he added.
Afterwards, the protesters said, “Chung Mong-gyu and Klinsmann must resign. They began their protest by shouting the slogan, “Go out for Korean soccer.”

With the police dispatched out of concern for safety and many reporters, the area in front of the soccer center is so crowded that there is no room to step.
Meanwhile, the Korea Football Association plans to hold a power reinforcement committee meeting at 11 a.m. on this day and seriously discuss the future of coach Klinsmann.
Director Klinsmann, who is on vacation in the United States, will also attend the meeting non-face-to-face. 19가이드03
