KFA Official Recommended Books

Soccer commentator Han Jun-hee's first book!
This book is one that can be enjoyed by children who love soccer, as well as those who are just beginning to take an interest.
The author, who works as a soccer commentator, has made soccer easier for children to understand and enjoy.
Based on my experiences of seeing, hearing, and feeling on the field, I have written a question-and-answer format about soccer that I really want to share with children.
"Why do soccer players always wear shorts?", "All shots look the same, but how many different types are there?", "When are free kicks and penalty kicks taken?", and other quirky and entertaining questions will help you understand the confusing rules of soccer and the flow of the game at a glance.
It's easy to see why modern football has become more fair and exciting.
As you gradually learn everything from basic common sense to core rules, soccer will become much more interesting and diverse.
Children who are new to soccer can learn easily and enjoyably, and children who already love soccer can gain a deeper level of knowledge and become 'soccer experts.'
