I love the Winter Olympics. I love short track racing. South Koreans hate Apolo Anton Ohno.
Now that I’ve learned the last point the hard way, what used to be an event that I used to look forward to with great anticipation has now suddenly become a downright stress fest. I’ve been relegated to watching this event sans brethren and sistern from the Mother Land, which sucks, because I also love the kick-ass South Korean team. And don’t even think about bringing up AAO in conversation, unless you enjoy being at the receiving end of a three-hour tirade about how stupid you are and how Korean you are not. Who knew an event that involves sliding around in circles would stir up so much hate.

"Can't we all just get along? No? OK, just asking..."
