Yesterday was South Korea's first game in the 2010 World Cup. At 8:30pm S. Korea played against Greece. I had considered going to Gwanghawmun for the festivities but decided against it. More and more I realize that I am not a city person and that I don't like crowds. The thought of rallying for Korea with millions and millions of fans made me nauseous rather than excited like everyone else. Thus, I opted to go to Suwon's World Cup Stadium instead where I was sure to avoid the craziness of Seoul. As it turns out, the stadium was
less crowded that I had anticipated and I was a little disappointed, but oh well. We still had a really fun time and the best part -- South Korea won !!
I geared up for the game with my Korea t-shirt, Korea socks, and Korea temporary tattoos.

ReplyDeleteoh no! Did you end up watching it at a bar or something instead? I liked watching it in the stadium because it was almost like watching a real game. Plus, I got to sit down the whole time.
