i have just been to the world's biggest party.

i was up in the center of seoul doing some late-night photography when korea beat italy ...

... might i mention korea is ranked like 50 in the world and italy is 5?

... huge party ensued... i just staggered in from it. i burned through 5 rolls of film (another $25, sigh).

the united states has nothing that is even comparable to what happened tonight. the closest thing i can think is maybe times square for new years... but take the innocent revelers and make them into soccer fanatics. and multiply by a ton more. and add fireworks. rock on!
