Go Corea!

In the last couple of weeks, excitment for the 2006 Soccer World Cup has really gone up a couple of notches. There is great anticipation all around the country after Korea's great showing at the last world cup (4th), which was held in Korea and Japan. I made the mistake of saying 'Japan and Korea' on our first day here, and was promptly corrected- it was held in 'Korea and Japan'.

These signs are all around the city, and there are hundreds of 'Red Devils' shirts being worn already. We've been told that 'Corea' is the European spelling.
