National teams
FIFA World Cup
Hong Myung-bo became the national team manager one year before the 2014 World Cup, and had to prepare for the competition in a short period of time. He called up the players who had won the bronze medal at the 2012 Summer Olympics under his leadership, but the team performed below par in the World Cup. They were pelted with yeot (a traditional Korean confectionery, which can sometimes be used to express insults) when they returned to South Korea.
