Yesterday some friends and I went to a Korean basketball game at the Jamsil Sports Complex. (There is also a baseball stadium and an Olympics arena in the area). The website to buy tickets was all in Korean but with the help of my co-teacher we were able to secure some tickets in the upper level of the stadium. We were fortunate enough to go to Game 5 of the Finals!
The game was a blast! The team that we were rooting for, KCC Egis, won! It was a tight game the entire time which made it all the more thrilling.
Korean basketball games are fun because there are cheerleaders
who don't do flips and cartwheels but rather
just stand there and make little k-pop dance moves and look cute
~ How to dress at a Korean basketball game ~
You have two choices: 1) a team shirt, 2) a suit and tie
Shot clock is 01.. At the buzzer.. He shoots... He SCORES!
Final score: Ulsan 65, Junju 69
The crowd goes wild!
"It was a tight game the entire time and it made it the win all the more thrilling." Needs an edit!
ReplyDeleteThe suit thing is just because it was a Friday night game...so punters come to the game straight from work...the attire is a lot more relaxed at Sunday games!! Glad you enjoyed the game!
Fixed the sentence, thanks. :)
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a fun time. Definitely interesting about the attire... how were the women dressed?
ReplyDeleteThey were dressed like cheerleaders.
ReplyDeleteNo, just kidding. There weren't that many women there (but I suppose it can't be that much less than at a basketball game in the US). They were wearing the normal spectrum of clothing. Some were in work clothes, some were casual.
