In the episode of SBS's 'Kick a Goal' aired on the 9th, the team was shown heading to a training camp in preparation for the upcoming match against Japan.
On this day, Coach Lee Young-pyo expressed his desire to face the rematch with the best team possible, summoning 10 final candidates to Jeju Island.
He then surprised everyone by announcing, "Only 7 players will be selected for the final team, and one will be eliminated today." Responding to comments about the harshness of the process, Coach Lee remarked, "This isn't as brutal as losing to Japan," drawing attention.
Coach Lee added, "I hope luck is on your side so that you're not the one going home today. I've assigned rooms with position rivals as roommates. You have to beat your roommate. And yes, the beds are double beds," which drew some complaints from the players.
The room assignments were soon revealed: Lee Yoo-jung and Seo-gi, Jung Hye-in and Kim Bo-kyung, Park Ji-an and Park Ha-yan, Shim Euddeum and Kim Ga-young, and Kisum and Heo Kyung-hee were paired as roommates. The suspense builds as everyone wonders from which room the eliminated player will emerge.
