Stars Celebrate Korea's Victory In World Cup Match Against Germany
Korea’s time in the 2018 FIFA World Cup has ended with a bang!
On June 27 (local time), Korea won 2 to 0 against Germany, eliminating them from continuing on in the tournament. Although Korea also did not advance to the round of 16 after losing the previous two games, the team shocked the world as they beat the defending champions. This is the first time since 1938 that Germany has not moved on past the group stage.
In response, Korean celebrities took to social media to celebrate the big win.
Jung Hae In wrote, “I am very proud of Korean soccer… I am touched! You really worked your hardest! You were the best.”
