SEOUL (AFP): South Korea's 2002 World Cup Organizing Committee
on Saturday named Korea Football Association president Chung
Mong-joon and Seoul Olympic Sports Promotion Foundation chairman
Lee Yun-taek as new co-heads.

The two replaced Park Seh-jik who stepped down in July after a
row with Chung, a vice president of the International Football
Federation (FIFA) and previous culture and tourism minister Park
Jie-won.

Chung had been vice chairman of the organizing committee while
Lee has served as a committee member since its official launch in
1996.
