President Moon Jae-in invited FIFA head Gianni Infantino, who was in Korea for the FIFA Under-20 World Cup Final, to Cheong Wa Dae for a talk on June 12.
“Football is the most popular sport in Korea,” said President Moon. “Thanks to people’s passion for soccer, Korea has co-hosted a FIFA World Cup with Japan and has now hosted the U-20 World Cup,” he said. “Personally, I believe that football is the most equal and democratic sport.”
“You can play football anywhere, as long as there`s a ball,” said the president. “It`s a sport where even poverty-stricken countries can enjoy success against stronger countries.”
