대한민국!

i'm not much of a soccer fan, but the world cup is quite fun. korea (대한민국) has to be one of the most nationaistic countries on earth, and because of this, they make watching the world cup very fun. everyone---and i mean everyone---watches the games featuring korea. restaurants bought new large screen tvs, everyone wears red to show support and if you weren't already out watching with the crowds, you were sure to be awoken with the cheering in the middle of the night whenever a korean goal was scored. korea made it through the first round of play, but lost their round 16 game. it was fun cheering with local koreans while it lasted.

here are some pictures of us cheering on the korean team:

i didn't have my red t-shirt yet. :( but it was still great fun!

here is a shot of us girls at the last game. good times!

the only close up of me. not too flattering, but shows a great shot of my cute red tee i bought.
