International Friendlies
Palestine, meanwhile, produced a superb performance to defeat China PR 5-0.
A difficult first half at Munsu Football Stadium saw Korea Republic unable to create much against their South American counterparts.
It was much better for interim head coach Robert Moreno’s side in the second half with Lee Dong-gyeong’s effort coming closest to breaking the deadlock but in the end, they had to settle for the draw.
Korea Republic will face Uzbekistan next on Tuesday.
In another international friendly, Palestine stunned China PR in Chongqing to come away 5-0 winners.
Liu Yang’s error gave Assad Al Hamlawi the chance to open the scoring in the 16th minute, who then grabbed his second seven minutes later before a breakaway move in first half added time saw Oday Dabbagh’s long range effort hitting the back of the net.
Dabbagh got his second with another powerful shot nine minutes into the second half with Ahmad Al Qaq completing the emphatic win for Palestine in stoppage time.
