Some players from the national football team, who failed to advance to the round of 32 in the 2026 FIFA World Cup, have returned home through Incheon International Airport.

Captain Son Heung-min, when faced with a barrage of questions from reporters, briefly replied, "I am sorry," before bowing his head and exiting the airport.

In a different atmosphere from the arrival of head coach Hong Myung-bo the previous day, fans offered words of comfort to Son and the other players, saying, "You worked hard," and "Don't hang your heads."

Meanwhile, the quiet arrival of the coaching staff was also captured.
