Swimming is very famous in Korea. Foreigners cannot eat swimming. Swimming is too spicy.

For newcomers who can't yet differentiate between the long-ubiquitous kimchi and the increasingly-ubiquitous Park Tae-hwan:
- this has a photo of Mr. Park:

- and this has a photo of kimchi:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kimchi

And familarity with the word 'ubiquitous' is also necessary: one will undoubtedly come across it in Korea. The word is ubiquitous, it truly is.

(And all joking aside: congrats Mr. Park - well done, very well done!)

I understand why they are going crazy over it-

97% of Koreans can't swim worth sh*t!
