Nike Scorpion KO 2002 Funk Seoul Brothers Vintage Football Artwork
Step back into one of Nike Football's most memorable advertising campaigns with this striking Funk Seoul Brothers artwork from the 2002 Scorpion KO era.
Created in the distinctive street-art style associated with Nike's legendary Secret Tournament campaign, this yellow spray-painted stencil artwork celebrates the fictional Funk Seoul Brothers football team, featuring international football stars Denílson, Seol and Ronaldinho.
Launched during the excitement surrounding the 2002 FIFA World Cup in Korea and Japan, Nike's Scorpion KO campaign brought together some of the biggest names in world football for a fictional underground tournament. Its dramatic advertising, unconventional teams and street-inspired visual identity helped make the campaign a memorable part of early-2000s football culture.
Unlike a conventional printed poster, this artwork features visible spray-paint texture, variations in paint density, stencil detailing and glossy black paint. These characteristics give the piece a distinctive finish that reflects the graffiti-inspired aesthetic of the original campaign.
Acquired from a private collection of early-2000s advertising and promotional material, this artwork is believed to date from the original campaign period. Its individual production history has not been independently authenticated.
A distinctive collectible for fans of Ronaldinho, vintage Nike Football advertising and the crossover between football, streetwear and street art.
