South Korea named Choi Kang-hee as its new coach on Wednesday despite the fact that Choi initially turned down the offer.
Choi replaces Cho Kwang-rae, who was sacked earlier this month following a 2-1 defeat to Lebanon.
After leading K-League side Jeonbuk Motors to the league title this past season, Choi will now be charged with helping South Korea qualify for the 2014 World Cup.
