A committee on reforming Korean football has decided to extend the deadline for electing the next president of the Korea Football Association (KFA), seeking to ensure a more transparent process as part of broader reform efforts.
The decision was reached at the committee's second meeting, presided over by Park Ji-sung, a co-chair of the committee, on Monday in Seoul.
"The committee has agreed to render institutional support to help the KFA revise its regulations requiring the election of a new president within 60 days so that extensions can be allowed in cases of unavoidable circumstances," Park told a press briefing after the roughly two-hour closed-door meeting.
He added that procedures to amend the rules will begin Tuesday with completion expected within the month.
