2002 FIFA World Cup hosting controversy
The 2002 FIFA World Cup was the subject of several public disputes between South Korea and Japan regarding the hosting and naming of the first football World Cup to be held in Asia, thought by some to have been worsened by the two countries' past diplomatic disagreements. The tournament was eventually co-hosted by both nations without major incident from May 31 to June 30.
