I am here working for Euronews (www.euronews.net) doing stories on Korea. If things go well, we might be able to do a series of stories on Korea which would be very nice. Today, however, football, or soccer, is on everyone's mind. South Korea is playing Greece and some 2 to 300,000 fans brave the rain to come out onto the streets of Seoul to watch the game on huge TV screens.
A goal in the first minutes of the match sent the street into a frenzy! But it was a very friendly frenzy, lots of jumping up and down, hugging and screaming, but not so much as to bother the next person or the cameraman trying to get a steady shot of the jubilation. Doing a stand-up at the end of the match was another story. Sophie, the journalist, had to attempt it several times before she could get her message across without fans jumping all over her or screaming so loud you couldn't hear her.
With the excitement filmed, we quickly made for the van and on the way to the hotel, I began downloading the images from the camera into the computer. Next a quick edit and then the images are sent via internet to France and within a couple hours are on air.
Sophie, looking pretty excited (or maybe overwhelmed) about it all, poses in her new all weather gear with Sunglim, our Korean fixer.
