"After the court's judgment, we will decide whether to return through the performance improvement committee and others."
In May, the federation imposed one-month and three-month suspensions on coach Yoon Jae-myung and coach A, respectively, for the management of public funds for meals worth hundreds of thousands of won during the international competition. Coach Yoon restored his position by requesting a reconsideration by the Fair Committee of the Korea Sports Council, a high-ranking organization, and Coach A also restored his leadership status by receiving a citation decision in a court injunction request for suspension of disciplinary action. Coach Yoon Jae-myung joined the national team earlier this month after making a decision on the board of directors after twists and turns. On the other hand, Coach A later restored his leadership status by receiving a citation decision in a court injunction request for suspension of disciplinary action, but has not yet returned to the national team.

The federation said it neglected to review the reasons for disqualification in the process of appointing a leader. The board of directors went through the appointment process without being aware of the fact"I deeply apologize for the series of mistakes."We will do our best to prevent this from happening again in the future by closely grasping the circumstances and preparing institutional supplementary measures."," he added.
At the time of Yoon Jae-myung's disciplinary action, the federation was criticized for appointing Kim Sun-tae, the federation's director and Seongnam City Hall's coach as the interim general manager. Director Kim received a one-year suspension for negligence in team management, false reports, and neglect of duties in 2019 while serving as the national team coach, and the federation cannot become the national team leader if he is suspended due to social controversy' was criticized for violating the national selection and operation regulations (Article 10, Paragraph 11).
