The worst part is that French news doesn't even report their mistake as if it weren't a big mistake. They're acting like they got the wrong order at a Paris restaurant

I can't stop laughing. Samsung literally gave free 11,000 cellphones for this event, and obviously one of the biggest sponsors, but to the French it seems one Korea is not much different to the other.

Horrible and worse, not only olympic flag was upside down, even annoucing the wrong country. just terrible
-
They even had dozens of flags lol
-
Some people do not understand that South Korea and North Korea’s war never ended officially, which means they are still at war. Mistaking one country by the other is a big deal. Imagine Ukraine being mistaken as Russia… That’s the same thing here. Such a mistake at such international level is just unacceptable
-
It is a complete disregard for the country and its people. France should apologize to Korea
-
국제대회인 올림픽에서 이런 커다란 실수를 한것은 이해할수없는 불쾌한 일이다 프랑스는 분명 진심으로 사과해야한다
-
France should apologise.

Imagine if in the 1988 Korea Olympics, they introduced West Germany as East Germany. West German would have taken it with great contempt
-
This ceremony was so horrible...even the Olympics flag turned upside down in disgust
-
France is embarrassing
-
such disrespect from France
-
France should apologize;;;; this is absolutely a big mistake
-
That's the reason I was never serious with French.
-
that's like mistaking Ukraine for Russia
-
I thought only Americans fail Geography badly, didn't know France share the same classroom.😂😂

Some people in the comments don't even realise how disrespectful this is. They are still at war y'all!! There's a reason why there's mandatory military service for men in south korea! (Edit: To some of y'all replying to my comment. You have been given a life to live and you choose to spend it being racist and xhenophobic. That's sad... my sincere prayers go out to you.)

어떻게 국가명을 잘못부를수있지 ? 일부러 그런거지? 프랑스는 최악이다
-
That was a big mistake..

They entirely skipped announcing Qatar also. They announced everybody else. God, just entirely skipped over them. They announced the two other countries on the same ship and literally skip the country that was sitting in the middle. Cameraman was focusing on them and everything. The announcers didn't say anything about them but, spoke about each other team on the ship
