South Korea won 2-0 in the ninth away match against Iraq on the 6th, marking the sixth consecutive World Cup finals in the world and the first in Asia. In Group B, South Korea and Jordan, ranked first with 19 points, will go straight to the World Cup.

South Korea, which has been undefeated in 15 consecutive matches (10 wins and 5 draws) in the second and third qualifiers of the North-China World Cup, will play unbeaten in 16 years since the 2010 South African World Cup.

In the current system in which five to six countries play the final qualifying round as a league, South Korea recorded "unbeaten World Cup qualifying" only in the 1990 World Cup in Italy (9 wins and 2 draws) and the 2010 World Cup in South Africa (7 wins and 7 draws).

Korea is ranked 23rd in the FIFA rankings, 111 places higher than Kuwait (134th). In matches with opponents, Korea is leading the group with 13 wins, four draws, and eight losses.

Lee Jae-sung, who held a press conference as vice-captain of the press conference held on the 9th, said, "I am grateful to the fans who cheered in Korea for the last Iraq match, even though it was not on the spot. The mood is really good as we got the result of advancing to the World Cup. Young players have experienced the final qualifying round and proved that they can play their role in the national team. They can certainly be a great help for the national team going forward. In particular, the captain (Son) Heung-min ended the final qualifying round of the last tournament by losing. Tomorrow has to be different. We didn't win many home games, but we really want to repay them with wins." 

Lee Jae-seong, who was born in 1992 and is the same age as his captain Son Heung-min, said, "If I play in the North-China World Cup, it will be my third World Cup. I am happy to take on the challenge in itself. I am really happy to join the national team whenever I call up. What I can say with confidence is consistency. As the coach liked it, I was able to play so far. Being with the best players is the best motivation. It is still my dream to play in the World Cup again, which was my dream when I started playing soccer. I cannot guarantee that I will be there one year later. I want to prepare well for the rest of the year and participate in the World Cup." 

Lee Jae-sung said, "There is no guarantee that the player in the national team will play in the World Cup. We have to do our best in our respective positions with the dream of becoming a World Cup. We need to have individual abilities to play in the World Cup. We need to go further and not be satisfied with the present. As the coach always emphasizes, I think we can play in the World Cup if we put our dedication and efforts into it."
