South Korea knocked Germany out of the 2018 World Cup on Wednesday June 27, thereby helping Mexico qualify for the next round.
In response, Mexicans are celebrating South Korea — to say thank you.
In Mexico City right now, hundreds of chanting, applauding, and screaming fans have flocked to the South Korean embassy.
South Korea’s consul general in Mexico, Byoung-Jin Han, decided to join in the revelry. It’s also possible he drank tequila with the fans.

Mexico fans even found a single South Korean fan outside the stadium, lifted him up, and sang his praises — and even simply chanting “Korea! Korea!”
