I think the dude explains it in the post on Reddit. I want to say it's because they got out of the group stages in 2002 when they weren't expected to. Something along those lines.


Yes. South Korea hosted and they weren’t expected to advance. Once the team did, it was considered a great athletic feat and the Country granted exemption for the players not embarrassing the country on a world stage.

The reddit post goes into further detail, but I didn’t want to load the OP down with even more text.
