South Korea have become a tradition in the FIFA World Cup, having qualified for the tournament in consecutive editions since 1986. Qatar 2022 hasn't been the exception for the Asian team.
Led by Tottenham Hotspur star Son Heung-min, South Korea arrived in Qatar knowing they had a challenging task ahead of them. They were drawn in Group H along with Portugal, Uruguay, and Ghana.
Though they didn't produce any upset like Japan did, their mere presence in yet another World Cup has once again caught many people's eyes. Let's take a look at their current FIFA World ranking.
Where do South Korea stand in the FIFA World ranking
