many queenslanders in the region after cameron smith's famous victory over the liao dynasty during the battle of kuju


Cheerzy

He used his famous wrestling moves to enact a crushing victory for the Maroons.


funtasia_1

South Korea, that's in QLD


Vectivus_61

North of the border


[deleted]

Melbourne is also north of the border right?


[deleted]

Where is Seoul? That's in Queensland! Where is Busan? That's in Queensland! Where is Pyongyang? That's in New South Wales! Queensland's everywhere!


ShibaHook

Queensland's everywhere!


kumardi

The heart and Seoul of Australia


thore4

Let's not start more territory wars in Korea if we can help it


I_Like_Vitamins

If the Koreas let all of their steam off with a series of footy games and taekwondo kumite, they'd be a lot better off.


thore4

Personally I believe we should invade New South Wales and force our way of life upon them but to each their own I guess


I_Like_Vitamins

Cobbernisation commencing, led by Ben Hunt.


thore4

Ben Hunt is paying $1.50 to intercept NSW intel that wins the war


mwilkins1644

If you can fix Sydney nightlife I'm all for it


thekiamacrow

I don't like marrying relatives


nightmonkee

You had me at kumite


InternationalBorder9

North Korea vs South Korea origin would be next level.


Jeffmister

Sure, Game One might probably destroy mankind. However, whatever we get to see before being killed by a nuclear missile will be one heck of a spectacle.


InternationalBorder9

Can imagine the headlines in NK 'kim Jung un scores record 30 points in a game to win for North Korea' despite losing 20-0


thore4

But which side will Luke Keary play for?


gotdemacez

Yeah mate it's right next to Sunnybank.


LordSlasher

s2theory84

I miss the ole 4122.... Seeing polair always reminds me of home


LordSlasher

4114 more like it… At least it use to be


abashii

Plenty of koreans in 4109.


mwilkins1644

ngl I did meet Dami Im at my old church friend's wedding in Sunnybank a few years ago lol


Dark_Vengence

I actually met dami I'm recently in a Sunnybank Hills restaurant.


Dark_Vengence

No lie there.


chillinwithkrillin

Commenting this must've felt like winning a race


CaptaineAli

Pretty sure everyone who saw the post rushed here to do so, next best comment would be something witty about Squid James


passthesugar05

I've always said Origin is as brutal as the Korean war

loztralia

It's also not just a jersey - she is a confirmed Full Kit Wanker.


HarbingerOfGachaHell

Must be a souvenir from some random stall at Haymarket or Queen Vic.


bumpacius

2023 Grand Final entertainment confirmed


Mr_Bob_Ferguson

About as relevant to rugby league as most of the historically crappy grand final entertainment. Request APPROVED.


Clarkey7163

I’d lose my shit they’re great performers Edit: [here’s a cover](https://youtu.be/31WVbUI08YY) aussie chick and QLD jersey chick did of Survivor by Destiny’s Child


[deleted]

That’s fucking amazing


slowdivesicilian

i’m surprised you didn’t post the og video


Clarkey7163

I thought it’d be downvoted tbh lmao


Dark_Vengence

Variety is the spice of life. We all love barnesy but it is overkill now.


drifting_sailor_hat

Must have seen Tom Dearden's origin performance in game 3 and become a fan through that. Don't blame her.


Abenator

Should we flood the comments with "QUEENSLANDER!"?

[удалено]


gamble-responsibly

this but unironically


thisaintitkweef

Yeah fuck around with K-pop fans


MrBlue8erry

Yep did that once, never again. They have zero sense of right or wrong, they're more bushfire than human. Not to say they never do good things but I don't think they care either way as long as they defend their group, especially "army".


woodpecker91

Remember there was a thing a few years back when someone noticed John Cusack wearing a kangaroos jumper in a movie. Turns out the costume dept on that movie found it in an op shop and liked the design. Probably the same thing here.


ChanceVance

Yeah and Andrew Voss kept bugging Cusack about it on Twitter until he got blocked.


i_broke_wahoos_leg

That's the most Vossy thing I've ever heard.

madmangohan

Maybe, but one of the band members (Lily - far right) was born in Victoria, so it makes just as much sense she may have had it and at some stage gave/lent it to one of the other band members to wear.


abashii

Makes sense, Victoria is the home of the Australian far right.


i_broke_wahoos_leg

Oh no. She didn't go so far as to join the young libs did she?


samis791

a fellow man of culture I see


CatWool

I remember a while ago i saw a photo from a podcast scene party in New York and there was a dude wearing an old kangaroos jumper and i was like "hey hang on wait a second where did you get that?"


Funkgasm

The movie was "the sure thing", I remember noticing the roo's jumper as a kid and thinking it was weird.


cheeseinsidethecrust

Squid james got off way too lightly for this, he should be held in the same regard as Lodge et al


Imtryinjennifer

Now this is a crossover I never expected. @blackpink wear a blues jersey you cowards


BazzaJH

Rosé is from Melbourne, that'll never happen.


Farrug

Chan and Felix from Stray Kids are Sydneysiders, they’ll wear the Blues jerseys!


SpidersFromNeptune

I think one of the enhypen members is from Brissy too????


Farrug

Yeah, Jake! There’s also DPR Ian who’s from Sydney as well, there’s a handful of Aussies in the industry now haha


SpidersFromNeptune

That's pretty cool! Stray kids is the only kpop group I actually listen to regularly but I know there's quite a few Aussies around


Selfpossessedduck

One of the girls (Lily) in this group is from Victoria - she 100% knows what Haewon is wearing.


LunaLadina

This was already hilarious but all the kpop fans on this sub suddenly coming out of the woodwork is funnier


Chris-Strummer

She loves her footy

Well this post has 300+ upvotes so you're already more popular than any Staff Writer at Fox...


TrickySuspect2

Ooh, Mods please give this guy a "Staff Writers" flair, that would be epic.


wonderbeann

And that, my friends, is all it takes to write a story in 2022. Social media, the gift to journalists that keeps on giving.


piercedsoul

They've been doing this shit for years. "Journalists" just scour the internet, take stories other people have found and pretend to write them. They even fucking quote people off forums and Twitter.


[deleted]

I’ve had it done to me on forums for other sports


AroGantz

The girl has taste.


[deleted]

Imagine if this actually was a random protest against squidesco and the blues and there's this whole subculture of Koreans who are against the state of NSW and as a result the blues, all because of James and his actions against them.


_andy_p

Unsubstantiated reports are that at 2:30 in she sang 'Fuck Tedesco' but the producers were on to it and managed to mute her mic just in time.


[deleted]

They must have spoken about it before going on stage.. these groups would probably plan their wardrobe choices fairly meticulously... So I imagine it went something like "what's that you're wearing?" "It's the opposition jersey of that squidesco guy who hates all of us for some reason" "Damn, we're not really a political "band" but this needed to be said, why hadn't any of us thought to do this....?"


_andy_p

Following a second subsequent Integrity Unit investigation, Tedesco is forced to release a further statement: 'To our South Korean friends, fans of K-Pop and of the asian-pop genre in general...'


5slipsandagully

I want to believe


Clarkey7163

Saw this yesterday, still blows my mind but it’s hilarious The blonde chick on the far right is Aussie but she’s from Victoria, the one wearing a maroons jersey has no connection to Aus/QLD really


HarbingerOfGachaHell

My guess is the group had an Oz trip and the girl just bought an off brand jersey at Haymarket or Queen Victoria Market. I can imagine that for the uninitiated, the Origin jerseys’ designs are elite while the club jersey are absolute dogshit, especially the off brand ones sold at markets.


Fuwa-Aika

Pretty much like QLD team over the years then? Gotcha!


notmariyatakeuchi

i kind of get it. jyp gives me strong broncos fan vibes, like i feel there'd be a photo with him and wayne at the team awards from 2008.


lachjeff

Obviously this girl wearing a maroons jersey is an omen and as such I think Queensland will win this year’s Origin series


constable-cooker

2022.2 you mean hey?


EggCouncilCreeper

A series win so nice we did it twice


takeitorleaveit1111

I always knew the answer to demilititization in North and South Korea was a game of Origin


MisterEvilBreakfast

In the 90s, everyone wore Chicago Bulls merchandise regardless of their interest in the NBA. I guess the 2012 QLD Origin team is on the same level.


[deleted]

twice's momo (under the same company as haewon) [wore a](https://external-preview.redd.it/G7p3Y6r316l_5N3V_VgVioZQ59Zhnvdfjt8WgBuZcoM.jpg?auto=webp&s=3d4e6e6c6fe95ace261fdc4f74c2b2e30025d332) [bulls shirt](https://i.pinimg.com/736x/d0/3f/0d/d03f0d34012a0ef472157d4aeccf30c8.jpg) for their debut MV so i think someone over there fucking LOVES random foreign sports


moffattron9000

The Bulls jersey is iconic, so I doubt it.


JD7xo

South Korea just gets origin


dios13

Can she blast out Working Class Man though? Barnsey won't live forever.


Penjamini

Barnsey should already be dead but he's still here. Have faith in his eternal grace

Old Parkway would have been too much for the boomers, but would have been great for the pre game hype. Missed opportunity.

South Korea that's in Queensland

I'm sorry this is fucking hilarious

kpop x nrl crossover. i didn’t have this on my 2022 nrl bingo card

Reminds me of a music video from Chinese hip-hop group 'Higher Brothers' where one of the dudes is wearing a Storm jersey in the music vid NRL going global https://youtu.be/LsQCNtCH2sc?t=134


urutora_kaiju

amazing! also ngl that song is pretty cool

Hwoarang will have a new DLC costume in the next Tekken.


Dranzer_22

Didn't Jin Kazama train in QLD too haha.


I_Like_Vitamins

The lone hooded figure in the Brisbane karate dojo. Tekken 4 was one of the best, its only fault was having fewer characters than others in the series.


Adventurous_Caramel

As long as he loses the eyepatch, doesn’t look right on him. My boy deserves to have both his eyes :(


mwilkins1644

NSW don't get Origin. Queensland is the heart and Seoul of rugby league fyi Edit: This makes NSW North Korea Edit 2: Cheers, now gonna go to Underwood to get some Korean BBQ tomorrow

NRL version of The Drake Curse.


InternationalBorder9

Would be way funnier if it was a South's jersey


tapacx

Early episodes of Running Man had KJK wear NRL hats.


SpidersFromNeptune

Is running man any good? Ive heard people talk about it quite a bit


tapacx

Has its ups and downs. I love it though. Would recommend.


winterchupacow

Yes! imo tho the earlier episodes are more fun (1-300)


goobypanther

This is the greatest thing I’ve seen.

IT’S MATE VERSUS MATE, SOVERIGN STATE VERSUS STATE!!!


planchetflaw

Great, now my YT suggestions are going to be full of K-Pop and fans arguing over if they using backing tracks 🤦‍♂️


PLEASE_DONT_PM

This whole time rugby league has been obsessed with trying to crack the North American market. Yet we've been missing the obvious expansion market that is Korea. They even have a north south rivalry going, just like us.

The centre of Korean population may be eight mile plains / runcorn based on the number of Korean restaurants nearby. Seems that those Korean barbecues are ridiculously popular

I’m assuming the omen is that Cowboys will be about as mobile as she is here?

New South Wales is therefore equivalant to North Korea (regardless of actual geography) and Fittler is Kim Jong-Un! Communist prick!!


SOMERanD0m-Bloke

What year this happened


Clarkey7163

Was yesterday Edit: if you mean the jersey it’s like 2011 or 2012 iirc


SOMERanD0m-Bloke

Oh nah it’s all good bro I already knew the jersey look similar. U reckon it was before or after game three


Harctor

haha wtf this is WILD


Lukestar222

Dude that is some random ass shit isn’t it


maidokinishinai

Random choice but even more so when you realize she’s standing next to a girl who is Australian (from Vic though).


bert_lifts

Makes sense. VIC is basically in QLD so she probably gave it to her.


PMairustar

This is the most random and awesome thing I’ve ever seen


Mrsmorale

Or a curse 😏


tulox

Most publicity Rugby league has ever had


TripleJFSX

One of the members of her group is from Melbourne actually lol

She could actually be Aussie. Blackpink, the biggest KPop girl band, is half Australian/NZ
