The street is packed with people dressed in red. They jump up in thunderous cheers as the Korean team scores the first goal. Loud cheers replace the nail-biting tension in this theater. Even the diners at a restaurant become one as they watch the game.

[Soundbite] KIM SEON-GYEONG & JOO YE-RIN(GYEONGGI-DO RESIDENTS) : "We love the Korean team. It's okay to lose, but just don't get hurt."

Restaurants grew hectic as people stayed up until late at night to watch the game. According to one delivery application business, it notched 1.5 million accumulated orders right before the final started, setting a record for the number of orders placed in a single day.

There were also 1.5 times more orders for fried chicken than usual.

Eateries were filled to the max, an overdue but welcome boom for the industry, as people's feverish support for the team continued until the early morning hours.
