On December 2, 2022, South Korea beated Portugal scoring 2-1, which ensured going to round of 16. At the 27 minute of the first half, Kim Young-kwon scored the first goal, making a tie. Hwang Hee-chan scored the last goal in extra time, with the assist of Son Heung-min.
 Interesting thing to notice is that South Korean players and spectators are wearing red. It is because the name of Korea national football team support club’s name is “Red Devils.” This club was organized in the year of 1955. 
     The name was designated as the Red Devil because foreign media called the Korean national team "Red Fury" and expressed surprise when the Korean national team reached the semifinals that no one expected during the 1983 World Youth Football Championship in Mexico. However, in the process of translating this expression into Korean, it was marked as “Red Devils,” and it has set since then.
     Members can join anyone who loves the Korean national team, and even if they don't join, everyone who comes to the stadium in red clothes is considered to have become a red devil. Furthermore, a tail from the red devil can be seen in the uniform of Korean player’s pants. 
The next match that South Korea will have is with Brazil. The UOS Times that players of both team have great game with no injury.
