On the 6th, various online communities and social media reported on the past atrocities of the association, which intervened in the selection of the national team and spent a lot of money on executive travel.
According to an SBS report in November 2018, the association's president and other executives intervened in the selection of the national team ahead of the Jakarta Asian Games.
At that time, the roster was unusually revised three times because of the instructions of the association's executives to make a generational change in consideration of the 2020 Tokyo Olympics.
As a result, six out of 20 players were replaced, reducing the number of players with experience in the general competition to only two, and four groups of doubles were reported to have changed partners except for two groups.
Team Korea, which has seen its performance decline significantly, ended up with no medal for the first time at the Asian Games. However, the association passed the buck for poor performance to coaches and notified them of the dismissal by text message as soon as the competition ended.
In addition, according to the budget bill prepared by the Badminton Association to participate in the world championships in China in July 2018, six players participated, and as many as eight executives followed.
In addition, coaches and players boarded economy seats, and all executives used business seats and nearly doubled the cost.
At the Australian Games in May 2017, five executives took the business seat at a cost of more than 16 million won and returned home early after the quarterfinals, saying, "It is difficult to win in terms of power."
As a result, only coaches and players remained, and after playing in the quarterfinals, semi-finals and finals, the team won the top spot for the first time in 14 years. None of the executives who returned home early saw the scene.
