South Korea Coach Quits After World Cup Exit

South Korea coach Hong Myung-bo resigned on Sunday after the team's humiliating group-stage exit from the World Cup, just 24 hours after the elimination.

President Lee Jae-myung had publicly criticized the coach as 'incapable' and demanded a complete overhaul of the nation's football structure.

Hong faced immense pressure and apologized to the nation for the early exit.

The team's disappointing campaign has sparked calls for a sports ministry-led investigation into the performance.
