The Last World Cup Fan Fest at Kwanghwamun

In the night of the last world cup match with Swiss- actually on June 23 - I couldn't stay at home because of the fever I had felt at KwangHwaMun while I was dropped at for a moment to take the bus going to home. As a result, I came to the Fan Fest area with my son at almost midnight.


One thing funny was that the only red shirt we had was a traditional Swiss-made as you can see from the picture. Fortuantely nobody cared about it! Can you see the beautiful edelweiss flower prints ?


The match was held too late(actually too early at 3:30 am), we couldn't keep the seats at the place whole night, but it was a funny experiences. The seven-eleven(or family mart, I'm not sure) in the left corner of the above picture was reported to sell mineral waters more than 60Million KRW(60 K USD, roughly) at that night.

Sorry Korea got eliminated. All my favorite teams got eliminated so far! Even Spain! I think Brazil will win the World Cup.

Argentina got eliminated. I am betting on a Germany-Brazil final! Right now I hope that Portugal will win against England, but that is of course impossible!
