They used to call Korea North Korea but now they’re calling it South Sudan

The 2024 Paris Olympics is embroiled in controversy due to its absurd management at the beginning of the games. After introducing the South Korean team as North Korea at the opening ceremony, they made the mistake of playing the South Sudan national anthem at the basketball court.

AFP reported on the 28th (Korean time), “South Sudan’s national anthem was played incorrectly before the men’s basketball team match between South Sudan and Puerto Rico at the Lille Pierre Morua Stadium.”

AFP reported, “South Sudan’s players looked embarrassed when the wrong anthem was played, and the audience booed.”

The South Sudan men’s basketball team participated in the Olympics for the first time through this competition, but they had an incident where they started with the wrong national anthem from the first game.

Despite the chaotic atmosphere, South Sudan defeated Puerto Rico 90-79.

There are too many operational mistakes.

During the opening ceremony, the organizing committee’s announcer made a big mistake by incorrectly introducing the South Korean team as North Korea, and incorrectly referred to South Korea’s fencing gold medalist Oh Sang-uk as Oh Sang-ku. AFP pointed out the repeated mistakes, saying, “The mistake of incorrectly introducing the South Sudan national anthem is similar to the mistake of incorrectly introducing South Korea as North Korea.” 파워볼사이트
