I am mexican and I've never been there.
In general I do not know so much as I'd like about countries from Asia, however I think that South Korea is a great country. I'd like to know about their culture and specifically about their food.
From my point of view, I'm not sure if they are doing really well, sincerely I just watched the last match with Mexico and they didn't do their best. Although, I have the best wishes to them and their people!
