Brazil’s World Cup Participation in Jeopardy, Cosmetics Sales Decline After Mask Mandates Lifted

▷ Brazil may be banned from participating in the World Cup
▷ I took off my mask … cosmetics sales fell

(Internal and external broadcasting = Announcer Jeong Ji-won / Editing Producer Sim Hae-joong) Hello everyone. This is domestic and foreign broadcast news.

1. (International) Brazil may be banned from participating in the World Cup

There has been a possibility that the Brazilian national football team will not participate in the World Cup.

According to reports from foreign media today from our point of view, the International Football Federation has sent a letter to the Brazilian Football Association saying that it could impose a ban on participating in international competitions.

This is because fraud was discovered in the Brazilian Football Association’s presidential election held last year, and a court in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, ruled that President Ednaudo Rodriguez should be dismissed and a new president elected within 30 days .

FIFA’s position is that a new president should not be elected again until a committee formed jointly with the South American Football Confederation independently investigates ‘electoral irregularities’, and if the Brazilian FA proceeds with the election, FIFA could impose a temporary suspension.

If the Brazilian Football Association is suspended, the Brazilian national team will be banned from participating in international competitions such as the Copa America and the World Cup.

2. (Economy) I took my mask off … cosmetics sales fell

Although the fear of the COVID-19 pandemic has disappeared and masks have been removed, sales of cosmetics are steadily declining.

According to a recent survey by the Bank of Korea Economic Statistics System, the total amount of cosmetics purchased by consumers with personal credit cards in August was 182.9 billion won.

This is around 1.4 billion won less than in March 2020, when pandemic fears were at their height.

At the time, it was analyzed that the demand for cosmetics decreased due to social distancing and working from home, but after returning to everyday life, the total credit card payment reached an all-time high, but cosmetics sales decreased significantly.

Experts predicted that “general demand for cosmetics has slowed down” and that “next year will be similar to this year.”
