They are, quite improbably, the ultimate bandwagon ride of these Pyeongchang Olympics. Consider that South Korea had virtually no history in the sport until a decade ago. Now the arena is often packed and the crowd squeals with delight at every toss by the South Korean squad. The South Korean curling squad celebrates during a match. For me, I know that when these Olympics are over, it’ll be back to the North Korea beat.
