Why did Korean football fans sing Beethovens 9th during match with France?
They were having a big celebration, because their small team was more than a match for France and their superstars. Beethoven was born in Bonn, Germany, and as such, the Korea fans have probable learned a bit about him before the kick off. Koreans like culture and learning when they have travelled 10,000 miles, not like the Europeans who all get drunk and start fights.
