Sohn Kee Chung...finally he is carrying a right flag on his chest

[lukkha1]

in korea there is a tradition of not only eating dogs but the dog has to be hung alive by his hind legs then beaten to almost death because it is thought that fear and pain produces a subtsance in the dog body that makes it taste better and when all his bones are broken but is still alive he is dipped into boiling water. so dont expect koreans to care for 3 doves .

[A5593GM4DHJ]

@lukkha1 yum yum ....

[gottsohndesign]

oh god, poor birds!

[madxientist]

the torch carrier Son also crushed Nazi racist's organized party(Berlin game) by winning the finale game.

what a man.

btw poor birds lol.

[pokegai777]

wtf

poor bird...

In Korea, there seems to be a culture that eats excrement.

They are calm to see burning birds.

[dhksrksalem]

1936 he taked japanese flag and he was so sad

but 1988 son is to be proud of he is korean

[international153]

This makes Seoul the worst olympics ever.

[EvanC0912]

that torch caused global warming!! hwhwhwh

[Sarah01181225]

The last torch carrier was Mr Sohn. What a glorious moment he must have felt!!!

I was a little baby girl when this happened but my mother said she actually cried when she saw Mr Sohn who carried the last torch. Remember. Mr Sohn was the gold medalist in marathon in 1936 Berlin Olympics when Korea was under one of the wicked evil Imperial Japan's rule.

[gary06uk]

The idea of a dove being a symbol of peace obviously doesnt translate well into korean

[scorpioninpink]

.,delicious korean bird barbeque!!!

[Ikarus361]

And this is why we'll never saw real doves released again in olympic ceremonies

[blaufosctatsh]

[lukkha1]

@mikanvlovev25 why didnt they wait ? in korea there is a tradition of not only eating dogs but the dog has to be hung alive by his hind legs then beaten to almost death because it is thought that fear and pain produces a subtsance in the dog body that makes it taste better and when all his bones are broken but is still alive he is dipped into boiling water. so dont expect koreans to care for 3 doves .

The greatest olympic games ever. The first time since 1976 USSR and USA competed, as well as the last time.

[vaginalapplicator]

[RK831]

Officially, he won the gold medal as Kite Son from Japan. We already know the story, though.

[JoshuaCSR]

聖火燒鴿子

[heisen51]

Standing in a cauldron of flammable liquid while giants hold torches next to you and dramatic music plays may not be the best idea.

[lake40]

now thats one big bbq lol

[latininxtc]

that is kind of funny, seeing the birds just sit there while instead of flying away from the smoke!

[cgsilverscreen2020]

does any1 kno wut teh song is when they r running wit teh olympic torch?

[Nacholympic]

It's a Korean folk fanfarre.

[jehenisus]

@cgsilverscreen2020 it's electronic music commissioned to a contemporary composer Sukhi Kang. I think the title is "Prometheus Kommt"

[batmous]

Nacholympic, just a small note: you left out Lim Chun Ae, who came after Sohn and before the final three.

[hiyetty]

thats outta order killing birds

[xpidf1]

"As i mentioned, they set it too close to the cauldron"
