Qatar Bans Beer Sales at World Cup Stadiums ; 2022.11.18

The about-face on alcohol could violate

a multimillion-dollar FIFA sponsorship agreement,

and signaled that soccer’s governing body (FIFA)

may no longer be in full control of its showcase event.

*** Begin Quote ***

The (Qatar FIFA) ban on alcohol consumption seemed to apply only to fans attending games. Beer and other drinks, including an official FIFA Champagne and an array of sommelier-selected wines, will still be available in stadium luxury suites reserved for FIFA officials and other wealthy guests.

South Korean government to review military exemption policies after Son Heung-Min’s Asian Games gold ; 2018.09.04

Mr. Son got out of S.KR Military Service, but the circus is prompting a fresh look under what circumstances athletes receive military exemptions.

(Note: Also , to be clear , Mr. SON would *only* get his *exemption* from S.KR Military Service , IF that the S.Korea Soccer Team WON the GOLD MEDAL 'First Place' finish ... Second Place would mean Mr. SON = NO S.KR Military Exemption).

S.Korea Soccer = Pelting , Fighting , (Whatever Tradition) ...

selfmate <-- You usually like 'controversial' news tidbits.

Quote from selfmate

SK like most CJK countries only acknowledge winners - no one cares for second place

and just a random thought would it only be him if they won and not the entire team???

I *believe* that S.KR MILITARY exemption applies to *all* members of the TEAM that does win the FIRST PLACE = GOLD MEDAL finish for *Olympic* or *All Asia* Soccer Championships ... It is NOT just limited to OLYMPIC Event , fairly certain on that ... I believe say this FIFA CUP situation in QATAR , that a FIRST PLACE finish would mean a S.KR MILITARY EXEMPTION for *all* members of the S.KOREA SOCCER TEAM that did finish in FIRST PLACE (Only , again 2nd Place = NO GO on it) ... This is NOT area of great expert knowledge for me ... I have read a few NEWS ARTICLES on it ... That mentioned of this S.KOREAN SOCCER = GOLD MEDAL = S.KR MILITARY SERVICE EXEMPTION , for *certain* level TOURNAMENT WINS ... Maybe APnews.com (USA Solid News Source) would choose to investigate and 'firm it up' on just ALL the NUANCES of it (SOCCER TEAM and S.KOREA MILITARY EXEMPTION RULES under S.KR LAWS).

As South Korean Athletes (FIFA Soccer) Avoid the Draft,

Some Ask: Why Not K-Pop Stars? ; 2018.10.13

Observation -->

Note that this URL article is *4 Years Old* ...

I believe it is 1.5 YEARS (*not* 2 Years) duration

for S.Korea Military Service now ...

But , have NOT heard any change on the S.KR Soccer Team

situation with 'ASIA GAMES' and 'OLYMPICS' as GOLD = EXEMPTION.

Not sure on the FIFA WORLD CUP , guessing it applies there too.

But it seems as ALL members of the SOCCER TEAM get the EXEMPTION.

BTS Group is *not* getting an EXEMPTION , last I heard it.
