The support system of Korean and Japanese soccer, which represents Asia, is being compared as a charter flight problem.
Both countries flew chartered flights during the third Asian qualifying round for the 2026 North-China World Cup, with both commonalities and differences confirmed.
Japan's "Sacker Digest" reported on the 8th that the South Korean national soccer team arrived in Muscat, Oman via Doha, Qatar, for the second Group B match of the third qualifying round for the North-China World Cup. The argument was that it was difficult to understand why South Korea, which is full of world-class players, used general flights rather than chartered flights.
Japan not only arrived in Bahrain on a chartered flight on the same night after beating China 7-0 at home on the 5th, but also gathered in Belgium to ride a chartered flight from the time European teams entered the country for this convocation.
It is not that Korea does not use chartered flights. The Korea Football Association has decided to use chartered flights when its players return home after the third Group B match that will take place in Amman, Jordan, on October 10. It has decided that preparations for the fourth Group B match (Oct. 15) with Iraq could be disrupted as there are no direct flights back to Korea from Jordan. However, it is not considering using chartered flights for the rest of the matches.

The Korea Football Association's budget for this year amounts to 187.6 billion won, the highest ever, but considering that it will cost 85.5 billion won to build the Cheonan Football Center, the same amount as previous years. The reality is that it is difficult for the Korea Football Association, which has to spend money on various fields, to spend a lot of money on chartered flights. The association reportedly costs around 800 million won (approx. The amount was also discounted by about 20 percent for this. 메이저사이트
On the other hand, the Japan Football Association spends 300 billion won (approx. The revenue comes from corporate sponsorship and broadcasting rights of broadcasters. The Japan Football Association is increasing support under the judgment that the national team must win to revive Japanese soccer.
The Korea Football Association is also expected to increase support for the national team in the future as sponsorship and broadcasting rights are on the rise if the Cheonan Football Center problem is solved.
