Former coach Huh held a press conference at the Olympic Parktel in Songpa-gu, Seoul on the 25th and officially announced his candidacy for the president of the Korea Football Association.
While Chairman Chung Mong-kyu, who is expected to run for the fourth term, has yet to make a detailed position, former coach Huh is the first person to announce his intention to run for president of the Korea Football Association.
"Actually, I was negative about running for the election. The media pointed out why I can't hear the voice of a soccer player when it's a soccer association for soccer," Huh said. "Some people must have courage to speak on behalf of soccer players."
Describing his candidacy for the presidential election of the Korea Football Association as a "pleasant challenge," he said, "If you are nervous at the stadium, your performance will not be displayed. We should do it in a bright atmosphere," and added, "I think it would be good for the association to have an atmosphere where employees come up with their own ideas and achieve themselves in a bright atmosphere."
Recently, the Korea Football Association has been criticized for being embroiled in various controversies, including the appointment of Hong Myung-bo as coach of the national soccer team. Public interest has increased to the extent that the Ministry of Culture, Sports and Tourism even started to audit the Korea Football Association.
On the current executive branch's problems, Huh said, "Many issues have arisen, including the amnesty of soccer players who manipulated matches, and the appointment of Jurgen Klinsmann and Hong Myung-bo. I believe the root cause of the problems lies in the decision-making structure."
"The appointment of a director should not be determined by arbitrary decision-making, that is, the decision of the president of the association. If the system had been well operated, such a problem would not have occurred," he said. "It should be a fair and common sense organization that makes decisions on its own and takes responsibility without just looking at the boss."
Former coach Huh, who emphasized the "harmony" of soccer players, said, "We can have different opinions, but we have to work together for the cause. I will run for harmony without hesitating to sit anywhere," adding, "It may take a long time, but I will put everything down for harmony."
As for the meaning of "I'll put everything down," he said, "I don't like authoritative things, I like to run on my own feet," and explained, "I'll focus on listening to my opinions rather than putting them out and being stubborn."
Former coach Huh plans to work for Korean soccer with Park Ji-sung, Lee Young-pyo and Lee Dong-guk, who were his students when he was the coach, when he became the president of the Korea Football Association.
"It's a must-do thing. There were a lot of people like that who came in for a while, but I think it's because they don't have a good working atmosphere," he said. "I think young talents with a lot of experience abroad should develop Korean soccer further."
He declined to comment on the controversy surrounding his other student, national team coach Hong Myung-bo. "When I look at Hong Myung-bo, I think it is a series of hardships. However, this issue has been decided by the current executive branch," Huh said. "Isn't it an important time when we are playing the World Cup qualifying round? I am only a candidate right now."
"There are many stories, but I think it's inappropriate for me to say it," he said, promising, "When I'm paid to say my position, I'll make it clear."
As for the Korea Football Association, which caused controversy over the appointment of coach Hong, he said, "Isn't there a committee such as a power reinforcement committee? I think this happened because it didn't work properly," adding, "We need to restore our functions, and it should never happen that the president of the association appoints and dismisses the coach."
