Among the Korean sports teams, the ‘Korean national soccer team’ is the most popular among Korean sports teams. Jurgen Klinsmann (58, Germany) was chosen as the new head of the national team, which coach Paulo Bento led for more than four years.

After retiring as a player, he transformed into a coach. He finished third as coach of the German national team at the 2006 World Cup in Germany in his country. After leading the German national team, which suffered a catastrophe at Euro 2004 (2 draws and 1 loss and elimination from the group stage), and rose to the third place in the World Cup as a rookie coach, his approval rating rose to the peak, and he was appointed as the most prestigious Bayern Munich coach in Germany.
From this point on, Klinsman’s life, a guarantee of success, began to fall. Within 10 months of his tenure, he was sacked for ruining Munich. Afterwards, he was appointed as the head coach of the U.S. national team in 2011, and at the 2014 World Cup, he advanced to the round of 16 and received a decent report card. However, the United States failed to advance to the World Cup in the North and Central America qualifiers for the 2018 World Cup, and it was eventually hardened.
In November 2019, he was appointed as the coach of Hertha Berlin, Germany, but resigned after 10 weeks, left the coaching position for about 3 years, and then took over the Korean national team coaching position.
