South Korea finished runners-up in inaugural AFC Futsal Asian Cup, but it lost its competitiveness in Asian futsal unlike in football due to lack of attention.^[2] In 2024, the president of Korea Futsal League (FK-League Federation) claimed the vitalization of South Korean futsal could help South Korean football expand its base, while the country was suffering from low fertility.^[2]
