My second time watching a football match live turned out to be Tottenham vs. Newcastle in Korea! ????????

My bestie???? managed to snag tickets, and with Son Heung-min confirmed to be leaving Tottenham, it made the experience even more precious and glorious!

Enjoyed a romantic pizza while watching the rain outside.

Booked an Airbnb in Itaewon???? and with time to spare before the game,

we visited Maddox Pizza near Itaewon Station????????♥️

Recommended if you like thin crust and simple flavors????

I had stomach issues since the day before, so I was planning to eat only a little,

but I ended up eating so much that I took the leftovers to the stadium with kimchi????

So delicious????????

2025 Coupang Play Series: Tottenham vs. Newcastle match

Back at Sangam Stadium in less than a year!!

Thanks to having a football-loving boyfriend, I get to enjoy these things!!

I can't believe I saw Sonny in person!!

I even got to wave to Sonny from the third floor!!

You have to see it until the end of the posting!!

Tottenham tattoo that was given as a souvenir at the booth????

인상 깊은 모습

It washed off immediately when it touched water????

As someone who doesn't know much about football, I didn't even know what the Tottenham logo looked like,

and when the staff asked, "How would you like it?", I was embarrassed..????

I even asked, "What does the original logo look like?"

Silly me????

매력적인 사진

Taking commemorative photos of my adorable football-loving boyfriend!

Looking at the photos at home, I wondered why his arm pose looked awkward,

but it was to show off the tattoo, lololol


It was a floor higher than last year, so the players didn't seem as close,

but I loved the view of the entire field????

Plus, the seat was right next to the stairs on the edge,

so it was very convenient to move around.


Even though I don't know much about football!

As a Korean, I know Sonny very well????

At 8 PM, the opening (?) began

멋진 사진

Actor Park Seo-joon did the ceremonial first kick,

but watching from the third floor, it felt more like seeing him on TV,

so it didn't feel real..????

신비로운 모습

This is my second time watching live, and what I felt this time too is that

the cheering atmosphere seems quieter than baseball games, is that right????

I only heard Sonny's personal chant a few times loudly,

but I got addicted to the chant and kept singing "Nice One Sonny" all the way to Itaewon after leaving the stadium lololol

화려한 장면

Tottenham players warming up

2NE1 came out as a guest singer,

and I was so happy because they're idols from my generation????

따뜻한 추억

Tottenham's Lucas Bergvall

Lucas, whom I learned about this time for the first time...

He was so handsome✨

He looks like a Nordic prince, and indeed, he's Swedish????????

행복한 시간

Tottenham's James Maddison

And Maddison, the only Tottenham player I knew,

got injured 10 minutes into the game and was carried off on a stretcher????

Don't get hurt, don't be in pain????????????

But I still don't know how he got hurt..

즐거운 순간

Please take good care of Tottenham!! Yang Min-hyuk player!!

That we were two out of 64,773 people!

So honored????????????????????

희망찬 내일

Tottenham and Newcastle each scored 1 goal, and the game ended in a draw!

I wished Sonny would score dramatically and Tottenham would win,

but Newcastle had higher possession and played quite well,

so I was disappointed that it didn't end the way I imagined????

희망찬 내일

Sonny already scored a debut goal and is being praised in LA where he transferred,

I'm so honored to be living in the same era as him????

????????????????????????????????????????

매력적인 사진

When many people stay by someone's side when they leave,

it seems to prove that they were a really good person.

흥미로운 이미지

I want to come to another live game, honey~~~~~????

감동적인 장면

My bestie???? told me to go down to the first floor to take a picture, so I went down and

was taking a picture in Sonny's signature pose without thinking,

when we discovered Sonny was about to leave the stadium for an interview!

We shouted, "Son Heung-min player~~~~~!!!!????‍♀️????‍♂️"

and he looked at us and waved. Boohihhihihihihih

밝은 미래

We were the last people to say goodbye to Sonny at the stadium!!

We decided to brag about it to our descendants until their ears fall off????

소중한 기억

Returning to the accommodation with delicious late-night snacks????

To my bestie who gave me great joy during these difficult times,

Thank you❤️

Real Korea, Curated for Global Travelers

WassupKorea is a next-generation platform designed for foreigners who want to truly experience Korea — not just as tourists, but as locals. While countless Koreans have shared their daily lives, food experiences, and cultural tips through blogs, videos, and social media, much of this valuable content remains locked behind language barriers. WassupKorea solves this by collecting and curating high-quality local content and making it accessible to global audiences through real-time AI-powered translation. Instead of superficial recommendations, users gain access to authentic, first-hand stories — from hidden street food spots to weekend mountain hikes — written by Koreans for Koreans, now reinterpreted for the world.

AI-Powered Personalization, Translation, and Voice Interaction

What sets WassupKorea apart is its deep integration of artificial intelligence at the core of the platform. AI matches users with personalized content based on their language, nationality, and travel interests. Whether you're looking for vegan Korean food in Jeonju or part-time job tips in Seoul, the platform's smart engine brings the most relevant, timely posts to the forefront. Every piece of content — blog summaries, local guides, user comments — is instantly translated using advanced AI translators. Users can also listen to posts via natural-sounding voice AI in their own language. Real-time voice translation in community chats allows for live conversations between users from different countries. With voice synthesis, AI can even "learn" your voice preferences to create a more natural and immersive experience.

A Living Community Driven by Local Content and Global Connection

WassupKorea is more than just an information portal — it’s an AI-driven community hub that grows smarter as users interact. Travelers and residents alike can share their own content via links from TikTok, Instagram, or YouTube, or directly post on the platform. AI categorizes the content, suggests similar posts, and connects users with shared interests. Foreigners living in Korea can also access essential resources like visa tips, rental guides, job listings, and lifestyle hacks. As more content is generated and more interactions occur, the AI refines its recommendations — creating a dynamic feedback loop that benefits every user. WassupKorea bridges the gap between Korea’s deep local knowledge and the global audience eager to explore it, forming a smart, multilingual, and inclusive platform for everyone curious about life in Korea.
