Korean national team manager Hong Myung-bo arrived in Los Angeles ahead of his team on Thursday, as he has a home here.

His squad will play three preparation matches in the United States, starting January 25th against Costa Rica at the Memorial Coliseum of Los Angeles.

Costa Rica qualified for 2014 World Cup rather easily and their strength is known to be their back line, meaning the Korean side’s scoring ability will be tested.

Tickets are on sale at the Korea Times box office.
