The Korea 2022 FIFA World Cup bid was the second official bid from the
Korea Football Association or the KFA. If this bid was successful, Korea would have been hosting their second World Cup Finals and it would have been their first solo hosting since they shared the
2002 FIFA World Cup with other co-host
Japan. Despite recent tensions, Han Sung-joo, chairman of the bid committee hoped to involve
North Korea if
South Korea received the bid.[1][2]
