They were also the beneficiaries of horrible World Cup refereeing in 2002.

How about the Korean baseball player during the WBC named Bum Ho Lee? That's the greatest name nearly ever. I think the Koreans had another guy with a funny name during the last olympics in Greece. I think he was in track and field. I forget what it was, though. The cool thing about that BE THE REDS logo, was the US fans took it and used it during the South Korea/US matchup. So you had us fans with banners that read BE THE US! There was poor grammer all over the stadium. I love american fans. But boy do those South Koreans fans know how to cheer. They actually have people who lead sections of the crowd in cheers. If only we had that here in the US.

They saved our ass while making fun of Apolo Ohno, which surprisingly did not involve ridicule of his terrible soul patch.

I think my favorite thing about the team's 2002 run was their meta "Be the Red" motto.
