TV stars, like all balls at that time, were all made of leather. However, TV Star has 32 hand-sewn cushions (12 black pentagons and 20 white pentagons), which is different from the previous updated cushion structure and more uniform seam distribution, making the sphere more rounded and perfect. Its structure and innovative design have written down the history of football.

The sphere becomes more round, more perfect and more passionate, and it can also adapt to the change of weather.
1982 world cup ball Spanish tango
Tango's design was only slightly changed in 1982. However, "Spanish Tango" has an important technological innovation: although Spanish Tango is still made of leather, its revolutionary water-sealed seam has broken through the technology at that time. Sealing and waterproof technology is adopted at the joint, which greatly reduces the absorption of water by the sphere and minimizes the weight of the sphere under wet conditions.

1998 World Cup tricolor ball

Tricolor ball is characterized by newly developed "synthetic foam", which further improved the durability and energy rebound of football at that time and made it more acute.
The 2002 World Cup took the ball to the fireball.
The design of "flying fireball" has gone beyond the past concept. Its shape design is based on white, and four dynamic darts inlaid with gold and red surround the football surface, which allows players to better see the rotation of the football. The dynamic and novel appearance of Fly to the Fireball is inspired by the philosophical thoughts of Korea and Japan: gold symbolizes the passion and vitality given by the host country to the World Cup; The red flame represents the motivation of enthusiasm; The four triangles with turbine patterns in the center of the sphere explain the perfect balance of the sphere in industrial language, and also symbolize the achievements made by South Korea and Japan in scientific and technological innovation in recent years.
