Since the 1960s, South Korea has emerged as a major football power in Asia and is historically the most successful Asian football team, having participated in eight consecutive and nine overall FIFA World Cup tournaments, the most for any Asian country. Despite initially going through five World Cup tournaments without winning a match, South Korea became the first and currently only Asian team to reach the semi-final stages when they co-hosted the 2002 tournament with Japan. They have since improved their ability to play on foreign soil and were able to reach the Round of 16 in the 2010 World Cup. South Korea won the first two AFC Asian Cup tournaments though they have been unable to win since, finishing second in 1972, 1980, 1988, and 2015, and third in 1964, 2000, 2007, and 2011. They also took the gold medal at the 1970, 1978, 1986, and 2014 Asian Games.

'우여곡절' 평양 원정 마친 축구대표팀 귀국
The South Korean national football team is back in Seoul today after a bizarre World Cup qualifying match in Pyeongyang on Tuesday.
As the match was not broadcast live,… the media and supporters were especially interested in what the South Korean squad had to say about the game.
Our Won Jung-hwan has more.
It was nearly 1 AM in the morning,… but football fans and reporters were waiting in line at Incheon International Airport to greet the squad's arrival.
It was a welcome return from Tuesday evening's peculiar match against North Korea,… where the Taeguk Warriors had to play in an empty Kim Il-sung Stadium with no cameras capturing the action live.
Indeed, a member of the South Korean delegation that traveled with the squad said the whole trip was a series of unpleasant surprises.
"We couldn't communicate with people back home. There was no internet connection whatsoever. We were blocked in our hotel so no one was able to move freely. The explanation was that they need to follow their own regulations. When we kept asking about it, everyone acted busy to avoid us."
The team also had to rough it out on the pitch as the North Koreans played very aggressively.
"It's a shame we couldn't win,… but to be honest, I think we should be happy no one got injured due to the extremely violent way they were playing. We could even hear some of the North Korean players cursing."
South Korea's Head Coach Paulo Bento also mentioned that the match officials had to stop the game regularly due to the sheer amount of fouls committed by the North Koreans.
He said that, while they are disappointed not to win, he's pleased his players coped with such a difficult situation.
The South Korean team say they have brought a recorded copy of the game back with them.
While South Korea's KBS had planned to show the match on Thursday, providing the video quality is good enough and the full match is included on the DVD,... they have decided in the end not to air the game.
"The much anticipated match between the two Koreas ended with neither side scoring,... but to decide who will get the ticket to Qatar in 2022,... the two need to meet again, only this time will be at a fully packed stadium in South Korea next June and aired live to the world. Won Jung-hwan, Arirang News Incheon."

They also took the gold medal at the 1970, 1978, 1986, and 2014 Asian Games.
Yonhap. By John Duerden ... Now Korea has 10 points and is three clear ... Winning in Jordan is not easy ... Korea did not exactly make it look easy but the Taeguk Warriors look like they are going to go all the way to North America in the summer of 2026 ... .
It was a goal more celebrated by the North Korea players watching in their hotel in Riyadh before their game with Saudi Arabia... It was so exciting ... Anyway, it does not look as if both the “Chollima” and the “Taeguk Warriors” are going to make 2026 ... .
HONG KONG... Hong had been booed after Korea’s opening 0-0 draw with Palestine in Seoul but back-to-back wins mean the Taeguk Warriors are in a strong position to continue their record of qualifying for every World Cup since 1986 ... .
Recommended For You. India... . Hong had been booed after Korea's opening 0-0 draw with Palestine in Seoul but back-to-back wins mean the Taeguk Warriors are in a strong position to continue their record of qualifying for every World Cup since 1986.
It was such a comprehensive defeat against a team that the Taeguk Warriors had been expected to beat comfortably that it cost Jurgen Klinsmann his job as head coach – or perhaps it was the game ...
7, ahead of an upcoming World Cup qualifier match Sept. 10. Yonhap ... On paper, Palestine is the weakest team in the six-team group and while the visitor was well-organized, it should not have provided too much trouble for the Taeguk Warriors in Seoul ... .
RECORD DEFEAT ...South Korea have qualified for the last 10 editions of the World Cup finals and many fans had been hoping for the appointment of a new foreign coach of the caliber of Guus Hiddink, who led the Taeguk Warriors to the semi-finals in 2002.
If the Taeguk Warriors finish in the top two of the six-team Group B after the 10 matches are completed next June, they will automatically secure a spot in the World Cup, which is the expected outcome.
It all went quite well and the Taeguk Warriors have strolled into the third round of 2026 World Cup qualification, which kicks off in September ... Hong’s priority is now getting the Taeguk Warriors ...
Xinhua-Yonhap. By John Duerden ...That’s no disrespect to the other five teams in Group B ... Iraq, Jordan, Oman, Palestine and Kuwait will present plenty of challenges but they should all be surmountable ones for the Taeguk Warriors ... .
Yonhap. By John Duerden ... It is seriously impressive that, seemingly regardless of the opponent, soccer fans in Korea come out in huge numbers to support the Taeguk Warriors ... And has been hard to replicate ... It has officially blown over ... .
. Anh Đức ...Park Hang-seo was the Taeguk Warriors' interim coach, and on the other side, the Samurai Blue was under the guidance of Philippe Troussier as manager ... Kim is known as an emotional and funny man and called 'Sik-sama' by his players ... VNS. .
