With the defeat of Japan and South Korea Asian challenge ends in Qatar world cup.

Dr Souvik Chatterji @sathviksouvik (23252) 5 Dec 22

I'm always in awe at the success story of BTS, the most famous boyband in the world. I ask myself several times if this is really happening?.

Jenaisle @Jenaisle (16568) • Philippines 4 Aug 20

If you would narrate the story that a boy group from South Korea is the biggest group in the world, most probably, some people would not believe it. I, myself, would not have believed it if I haven't witnessed how this small group...

Russia not represented as a country in winter Olympics in South Korea

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (52199) • Staten Island, New York 12 Feb 18

I love the winter Olympics. I was shocked to hear that Russia is not represented as a country at these Olympic games in South Korea (because of the doping scandal at the last Olympic games in Sochi). It is an embarrassment for...
