South Korea's city, Pyeongchang (NOT PYOUNGYANG, that's in North Korea ) was chosen to host the 2018 winter olympics. this was their third bid.

I demand a Starcraft event.

 

Protoss for the gold medal.

This.

Brotoss fist-bump.

 

I have to wonder if the Olympics in China actually got them good publicity. I wonder this only because I think South Korea deserves some. I have friends who go to South Korea on a regular basis (Non-Korean US citizens), and most people tell them to be careful because Korea is dangerous for Americans, not realizing, of course, there are two Koreas.

 

Eeh, they probably will. I mean, the venues are so close to each other, and s korea is known for welcoming citizens (but there are exceptions, just like every other country out there).

 

^ I fucking love that movie.

And to make sure I have something relevant to the topic... good for South Korea

 

That'd definitely be more exciting than half the Olympic events, that's for sure.

 

South Korea has always been the best Korea.....

Edit: Go on the North Korea website for some lolz
