South Kora, Hines Ward and the Super Bowl

If you haven't read the story about Pittsburgh Steelers' wide receiver Hines Ward, the Super Bowl MVP, as pertains to South Koria, I recommend it...it seems that Hines is half-Korean, and that South Korea is going ape over their new media superstar.

He is planning to visit there in April and South Korean adoption agencies are looking forward to renewed interest in their work owing to his parentage. His father was a serviceman and his mother Korean, the divorcd soon after they returned to the states, Hines has not been back since he was a toddler (although he has his name tattoo'd on his arm in Korean)

Good human interest angle, there.
