■ A Chinese player’s abusive language… ‘Bread Sister’ suddenly summoned
But this YouTube, ‘Bread Sister’ was suddenly summoned by the Chinese media.
‘Bread’, the nickname that Yeon-Kyung Kim uttered to herself when the competition did not go well at the last Olympics was caught on camera.
The reason the Chinese media took notice is that Chinese badminton player Chen Qingchen continued to shout abusive language during the match against the Korean national team, which caused a lot of controversy.
“Chao!”
When Taiwan and Hong Kong viewers pointed out and the Korean association also made an official protest, the Chinese media found ‘Bread Sister’ and claimed it was a ‘double standard’.
The Chinese media introduced that the name ‘Bread Sister’, which became the name of the YouTube channel, was derived from this.
However, there seems to be a clear difference between spit out to others as if roaring and self-blaming self-blame.
■ Familiar melodies everywhere… Empty seats are filled by ‘K-Pop’
This song that suddenly plays during a tense volleyball match is familiar.
The lyrics of this song are also in Korean.
K-pop fills in the sluggishness of this Olympics without spectators.
I often listen to BTS songs.
Even without Korean players, various K-pops come out.
Are K-pop fans hiding behind the Olympic organizers?
Song selection is done by category.
It is known for considering the fun of watching the game and the morale of the players, and even getting recommendations from some players.
