What has an England flag got to do with Thai Cuisine?
Nasi kandar isn’t American food!
Well, it looks like World Cup fever has invaded the KLCC food court…

Japan vs. South Korea
No, Japan and South Korea are not facing each other in FIFA World Cup. But in a sense, the two nations are competing with each other.
Korean Peninsula was under the harsh rule of Japan before the latter was defeated in World War II. While it has been 65 years since the Land of the Morning Calm gained independence, its people have remained hostile to their former colonizers until today.
On the other hand, few Japanese born after the War knew their history well. Korean TV stars are hugely popular in the Land of the Rising Sun. Unfortunately, good will of the post-war Japanese has failed to melt the ice, or put out the fire, on the other side of Sea of Japan. (Koreans refer to Sea of Japan as East Sea.)
World Cup provides a venue for the Koreans to vent their anger. They want to progress further than the Japanese…
South Korea has already been knocked out in Round of 16. Will the Japanese outlast them? We will know the answer very soon…
I suppose the flag shows the stall's support of that country team. It's very sporting of them. Did you mean food court instead of foot court?
ReplyDeleteSouth Korea has been knocked out. Let's see if Japan can go a little further. ;p
ReplyDeleteInteresting flags at the wrong places :)
ReplyDeleteThe hope of all Asian are now on Japan!
let's wait and see....

I'm actually proud of these two countries for even making it to the World Cup! :) The only Asian countries eligible.. they deserve something just because of that no? :) Hopefully Japan can survive longer than the Koreans now..
