Before the 2022 World Cup, the teams had also scheduled a preparatory friendly. In the same stadium of this Friday's friendly, Brazil thrashed Korea 5-1 in June of that year, with goals from Richarlison, Neymar (twice), Philippe Coutinho, and Gabriel Jesus.

On the other hand, South Korea has beaten Brazil only once. In 1999, the Koreans beat the Brazilian Team at home, by 1 to 0, with a goal from Kim Do-Hoon at the 47th minute of the second half.
