Korea: Focused on Excellence

If you are a Korean who likes sports watch this. If you are a proud Korean watch this. If you are non-Korean, watch and recognize son!

If you just want to see where I been living, watch the first 2 minutes.



The short bit at 2:25 about Sohn Kee Chung who won the Gold in Berlin running for Japan (because Korea was under Japanese rule) was so bittersweet. Him running into the Seoul Olympic stadium in the 88 Olympics was soooo amazing. I cried.

"South Korea's success is due to its people, intensely focused and with an unrivaled work ethic and an unyielding dedication to perfection."

Yeah, if you think that quote is news, you've clearly never spoken to a Korean mom or dad.
