✍️ Hwaseong's first ever professional match played on their soil. An historical moment for a city of 1 million, with the mayor's speech and fireworks and everything. While getting some scran I overheard some people talking about the last match. 'The city had prepared a lot for the away game, they even gathered all the civil servants to a send a crowd of thousand.' I thought it was funny but I already should've noticed that, let me say… this wasn't the club with the most fervent fans.
First off, clap sticks handed out to the supporters! By returning it you little fridge magnet with the matchday info. You see, this club don't really have a supporter culture yet. The ones trying to rally the crowd were the cheerleaders and a small group of middle-aged people with Korean drums. They tried their best but weren't very persuasive to the side I was sitting on. (Actually I was on the wrong row when taking that 1st pic)
It rained on the 2nd half so they opened the 2nd floor. This place is pretty big with 35 thousand seats. No roof for the away fans, despite being just a 5-year-old club they were quite well organised with their support.
This ended up more like a ramble, was I too harsh to a club that just turned professional? I have just 2 games left to be their number 1 fan on Futbology, anyway. π
![A four-panel comic in watercolour. [1st] The artist's avatar(a brick red lindworm) looks out the balcony window with a snowy hill visible outside and thinks 'I hope spring won't come this year'. [2nd] Same scene viewed from outside the window and closed up. It thinks 'I doubt it will. Everything is dying and it's our fault, we don't deserve flowers' [3rd] A closeup that only the lindworm's eye is visible. There is a big '!' and a speech bubble that reads 'But… if it never gets warm, when will I start wearing football shirts?'

There are plants that resemble club crests: a green and red tree on the horizon(Southampton and Forest), a red lily with purple leaves(Fiorentina), a green plant(FenerbahΓ§e), a red rose(Blackburn), a four-leaf clover(Celtic) and two three-leaf clovers(FΓΌrth/Panathinaikos/Omonia).](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh9MosWFdMQN6zJAs1-02WexuAoVVtjn8we3jC_hDGZGQ9XKkd3RakLczk-UzqfNqC4OYzKM8jjLpF6d37kSfb_28gi-Im-WOt4NLunswKQjSQFpRSUxU8KCH3rgDPkElSnP5eyiiVorR5Mki_6XqGI_unvUCn3Zb5mwYt_fQeTOXZPiYIc9tAElVhGQU-l/s2990/2025-02-14_i_think_football_saved_my_life.png)
