As for the likes of S.Korea, it will only have been 20 years since they hosted the World Cup, although that was co-hosted with Japan...The only other places in Asia capable of holding the World Cup would probably be China, whether they would get it is a different matter.
Sorry to be pedantic.
The World Cup was held in the USA in 1994; and South Korea/Japan in 2002. 20 years and 12 years have passed respectively, not the 30 and 20 years as you have stated.
