I guess it's no surprise that Japan won in baseball

I thought people were actually interested in that, but they don't even care that Japan is playing in their own home country.
The Japanese members don't seem to care much either, and there's just no interest in general.
Above all, it seems like they're just working hard to get military exemptions for Koreans; looking at it now, Korea has won five consecutive gold medals, so I guess they've just been winning them all along.
