Hi Hive friends
Wow, it’s already Day 7 the last day of my Korea series! Before I start today’s topic, I just want to say thank you so much to everyone who has been reading, upvoting, and commenting on my posts these past 7 days. Your support really means a lot to me.
Okay, now let’s talk about something that brings every Korean together sports!
Koreans love many sports, but there are a few that are really special. One of the biggest ones is football (soccer). When the Korean team plays back then especially in the World Cup, the whole country becomes like one big stadium.People wear red shirts, wave flags, and cheer together. I saw videos of the 2002 World Cup when Korea reached the semifinals, though I was still very young but I was a football lover the streets were full of fans, dancing and shouting. It was amazing to see that energy.
Another sport that started in Korea and became famous worldwide is Taekwondo. It’s not just a sport, it’s part of Korean culture. Many kids learn it from a young age. It teaches discipline, strength, and respect. It also became an Olympic sport, which makes Koreans super proud.
Then there’s baseball, which is really popular too. Korean baseball fans are loud and fun they sing songs and dance in the stadium. It’s more than just a game it’s like a party very lively and entertaining.
And believe it or not, eSports (video game competitions) are also a big deal in Korea. Games like StarCraft, League of Legends, and others are played in huge arenas with thousands of fans watching live. Yes, video games are serious business there. I almost don't believe until I find out.
What I love is how sports bring people together in Korea. Whether it’s watching a match with friends, supporting their team, or practicing a martial art, it’s all about passion and unity.
So that’s it my 7-day journey into Korean life and culture. I learned a lot, and I hope you did too.
Thank you again to everyone who followed along. If you enjoyed the series, feel free to comment your favorite day or anything you found interesting!
Stay awesome Hive fam.
