According to my American friends, this means New Zealand won, I'm willing to accept this logic. Especially seen as it was out first world cup goal - ever!
But I'm sure no matter how crazy New Zealand is with football fever it's no match for South Korea. It seems here that people really love their football - Rich and I watched the first South Korea world cup match in a park in Gyeonju last weekend, South Korea won 2-0 to Greece and the crowd went wild. Every goal was followed by wild chants of "Dae Han Min Guk" and dancing.
My kids have all gone totally football mad too, well, I should say more football mad than usual. Most of the journal entries I recieve at the moment read like this one.
Finally, there are so many K-pop football themed songs out at the moment, like this one called Kara. K-pop is horrible at the best of times and the World Cup has not provided enough inspiration to create a decent song. Finally is this little video, it's sponsored by SK Telecom and meant to inspire Korean's to "Dream Again" - I think it's pretty awesome.

Did I jsut read "Da han min kuk" on the paper? Hihi, In swedish, that means something.... ehm.... NSFW :P
That's quite funny! In Korean it's kind of the formal name for Korea which Korean's cheer at sports matches.
Sounds like it means something quite different in Swedish!
