The South Korea women's national football team has represented South Korea (Korea Republic) at the FIFA Women's World Cup on four occasions, in 2003, 2015, 2019, and 2023.
South Korea finished in fourth place at the 2014 AFC Women's Asian Cup and qualified for the 2015 FIFA Women's World Cup, where they made it out of the group stage for the first time. They were drawn in Group E with Brazil, Spain and Costa Rica. South Korea lost 2âÂÂ0 to Brazil, but a 2âÂÂ2 draw with Costa Rica and a 2âÂÂ1 victory against Spain were enough to progress for the first time ever at a World Cup. They went on to lose 3âÂÂ0 to France in the round of 16.
Coming off an improved showing at the previous one, South Korea qualified for the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup and were put in Group A with France, Norway and Nigeria. However, they could not repeat their prior success in 2015 and lost all three games and exited the tournament in the group stage, only scoring one goal in their entire run and even an own goal.
South Korea next qualified for the 2023 FIFA Women's World Cup. As in 2019, the team scored only one goal, but achieved a notable result by drawing their final match with Germany 1âÂÂ1, which resulted in the Germans exiting the tournament at the group stage despite being second in the FIFA Ranking at the time.
