The South Korea national football B team (Korean: 대한민국 축구 국가대표 B팀) was the selection of South Korean semi-professional footballers and college footballers. Most of the members were playing in the Korean Semi-professional Football League, the Korean University Football League or the Korea National League. It was run as the reserve team of the South Korea national football team, and is currently managed as the South Korea Universiade football team (Korean: 대한민국 유니버시아드 축구 국가대표팀; recognized as Republic of Korea by FISU) after Asia's minor competitions were in decline. The under-28 professionals and semi-professionals also can be selected for the Universiade team within two years of graduation from university.
