The choices were K-pop boy groups BTS' 'FAKE LOVE', EXO's 'Power', Colombian singer J Balvin's 'Mi Gente' and Russian EDM producer Zedd's 'The Middle'.
EXO's 'Power' eventually won the poll with slightly more votes than BTS' 'FAKE LOVE'.
However, it seems like FIFA has decided to play not only EXO's, but also BTS' song as well.
According to Alex Stone, the social media manager of the official FIFA World Cup account, 'FAKE LOVE' also qualifies to be played at the World Cup.
He commented, "Great news. We also ran a poll on Instagram. Fans of both groups are winners! Enjoy the rest of the day/evening."
