Korean soccer is drifting away. Concerns are mounting in the soccer community over how long the tug-of-war, which is just a wound, will continue. The election for the 55th president of the Korea Football Association (KFA) has been postponed again. As all members of the KFA's election campaign committee, who were in charge of election affairs, resigned, the schedule for the second election was also canceled.

Originally, the presidential election was scheduled to take place on Friday. However, the election was postponed as the court cited Huh Jung-moo's request for provisional injunction to ban the presidential election from the KFA on Thursday, a day before the election. The election management committee has rescheduled the election to Friday, with the aim of redrawing the electoral college. However, as candidates Heo Jung-moo and Shin Moon-sun, who are leading the way for Chung Mong-gyu, protested again, the election ended in failure. In the 55th presidential election, Chung Mong-gyu, who is running for the fourth term, as well as Heo Jeong-moo, a visiting professor of sports record analysis at Shinmunseon Myeongji University Graduate School of Records and Information Science, and Huh Jung-moo, former chairman of the Daejeon Hana Citizen board, ran for the election.

The KFA plans to come up with a new plan including reorganization of the election management committee this week. To that end, an emergency board meeting is also scheduled on Friday. The current executive branch will end its term on Tuesday. As preparations for the postponement of the election should be prepared, diverse discussions are expected to take place. The KFA is also said to have asked the National Election Commission whether it is possible to entrust election work. Following Huh Jung-moo and Shinmun-seon, Chung Mong-gyu also requested the commission.

However, it remains to be seen whether the Central Election Commission will be in charge of electioneering for individual sports organizations. The KFA is a huge organization but one of 58 affiliated sports organizations under the Korea Sports and Olympic Committee. The same criteria should be applied to 58 organizations if they are entrusted with the KFA's electioneering work. Equity cannot be overlooked.

The members of the election management committee decided to resign on the 10th. The steering committee, which was legally selected in accordance with the association's regulations and procedures, carried out all procedures related to this election fairly and objectively. The court also did not take issue with the association's selection process or composition of the election management committee itself. Nevertheless, several unfounded accusations and protests were raised during the election. In particular, he complained that despite efforts to collect opinions on candidates for the smooth election while respecting the court's decision, only malicious slander continues. "The committee deeply regrets this situation and decided to resign after careful consideration, judging that it is impossible to fulfill its normal responsibilities," the committee said. KFA subsequently announced that "the election schedule was canceled as all members of the election management committee expressed their intention to resign."

This is the first time that the court has never experienced the suspension of the KFA presidential election as well as the resignation of the election management committee members. Candidate Chung Mong-kyu, who refrained from attacking Huh Jung-moo's election, also exploded into conspiracy theories that went too far. "I express deep regret as a candidate that the presidential election, which had been crippled by unfounded criticism and protests by some candidates, has finally reached a phase of resignation of all members of the election management committee and postponement of the second election," he said. "The composition of the election management committee is an independent resolution of the board of directors after I was excluded from my duties, and I maliciously criticized it as if it was related to me even though it was clear that I could not be involved in the operation." 메이저사이트

"Even though the smooth progress of the projects that were pushed forward by the absence of the executive branch is seriously threatened, other candidates are not concerned at all and are only focused on denigrating the association with groundless accusations and false claims and delaying the election," Chung said. "As one of the candidates, I urge fair and transparent election proceedings," he said. "I suggest that other candidates stop baseless slander and conduct policy-oriented primary activities. The Election Commission should take stern and tough measures against acts that hinder sound election progress or violations of regulations."
