The North Korean Soccer Team was publicly shamed after their performance in the World Cup.

This article from the Chosun Ilbo reports that the team had to stand on stage while the 400 officials and athletes in the audience criticized their mistakes.  After that was done, each player took a turn to criticize the coach.  The most ridiculous part of this whole story is that the event lasted six hours.  At least it's better than being executed.

The USA is out of the World Cup

and so is Korea.  Now I can finally stop pretending that I like soccer and move on to more important things, like what happens in the world of professional table tennis.

Gyan…

the guy who scored the winning goal against the U.S. soccer team, looks a lot like Dikembe Mutombo.  He's even got the finger waving down.

I'm going to a bar to watch the game.

I might not like soccer much, but I do love the U.S.A.

Korea vs Argentina is on Thursday.

It's not going to be the first time that Huh Jung-Moo, the current coach of the South Korean team, and Maradona are going to be facing each other.  They've faced off in the 1986 World Cup as players.  He's famous for this picture where he's kicking Maradona.

If you didn’t know, fans of Korea’s national soccer team are called the Red Devils.  This is a funny little video from Sticky Monster Lab for Nike, but I don’t know much else about it.  If you want to find out more, you can poke around highsnobiety, where I originally found the video.
