Which Korea?
Both N and S Korea are in this.
I'm guessing S Korea.

I don't really watch the Olympics except for the opening ceremony though.

uh its always south korea. You only hear news about north korea if the subject is about nukes, communism, or kim jong-il.

And Korea should have swept the podium. Ohno doesn't deserve his medal, he only got it through luck (as in 2 people ahead of him just fell down 2 seconds before the end).

regardless of how he got his medal, its getting annoying with the american commentators glorifying how he's as great as bonni blair. 2 gold medals and a couple silver and bronzes sprinkled in is not the same as 5 gold medals.

Apollos first race was amazing. He was cruising at the back for the main part, then the last 3 laps just raced past the others.

I agree, although many russian's got caught with the drug tests....

Russians will dominate, wouldnt be surprised if they won the hockey hands down too
