SNSD "Girls Generation" plays at Beijing Olympics

Korea's "Water Boy" Olympic swimmer Park Tae Hwan won his first gold medal in the Men's 400 meter free-style on August 10, recording a time of 3 minutes and 41.36 seconds.

After Park Tae Hwan finished his race, the song "Girl's Generation" by SNSD echoed throughout the expansive Water Cube, attracting the attention of the bystanders. (People probably gave him queer looks, no doubt.) At the Beijing Olympics, when an athlete wins a gold medal, they turn on the athlete's favorite song as requested. I am truly disappointed in this Olympian - his shameful act casts a pallor upon his glory.

Netizens are already in an uproar because Park Tae Hwan is known to be very close to the members of Wonder Girls. There were even rumors last year that WG's leader Sun Ye was secretly dating Park Tae Hwan.
