The Korea Football Association's referee committee concluded. The cancellation of the score in the first 20 minutes of the 24th round of the 「Hana Bank K League 2 2025」 between the Jeonnam Dragons and Cheonan City FC held at Gwangyang Football Stadium on the 10th was a misjudgment.

The Korea Football Association held a judging committee at 2 p.m. on the 13th at the Korea Football Center in Sinmun-ro, Seoul. We conducted a review of the K League 1 and 2 games held from the 8th to the 10th. It was a six-hour relay meeting. At the end of the meeting, an official from the K-League club attended and asked about related contents.

As a result, the scene between Jeonnam and Cheonan, which caused controversy, was judged to be wrong. In the 20th minute of the first half, Jeonnam Min Joon-young's left-footed mid-range shot hit the net. After scoring, the referee put one hand to his ear and paused the game. It was a gesture that he was in communication with the video reading room (VOR). After about five minutes of delay, referee Park Jung-ho declared the score canceled. Jeonnam, which missed the first goal, lost the final 3-4. In addition, the scene of Rubik'sson scoring in the match between Ulsan HD and Jeju SK at Ulsan Munsu World Cup Stadium on the 9th was recognized as sincerity. Some asked if it was offside, but it was not the result of the review.




Moon Jin-hee, chairman of the Korea Football Association's referee committee, met with reporters after the meeting, saying, `The Jeonnam-Cheonan case is a misjudgment. The Ulsan-Jeju case is heartfelt. I made data for you in the KFA PR office. If you receive the relevant information, you will understand it enough. "It is not at all that the referee played a joke, for example. I can tell you that clearly. If you receive the materials from the public relations office, you will be fully convinced." The Korea Football Association will receive relevant data and officially announce it.

He has been chairman of the judging committee for four months. In the meantime, he has clearly expressed his sincerity and misjudgment. This is because it is possible to work on reducing misjudgment. For some, it is called sincerity, and for others, it is shaken when it is called mischievous. To maintain consistency, I have been training every week since May. I had a Zoom meeting through a FIFA instructor. Still, there are some differences. It's my job to reduce it."
