As a Canadian I disown Patrick Chan as my fellow countryman henceforth. Confused

Yeah, sure, because it's not like he's a world champion or anything.

Because he's a fan of something you don't like? Seems rather odd..

I was surprised that Patrick Chan is also a big Soshi fan, SONEs 4ever!!! Smile

I wonder if Patrick like other K-pop group beside SNSD.

NBC is biased because they are American broadcasting. He did great. This makes him cooler in my eyes. I'm not even a K-ON fan myself.

Also, get over yourself Kaioshin

Even for people that dislike K-On, they cannot deny the instrumentals in K-On are upper-level. Especially that use of bass

Maybe in the few "Death Devils" segments. K-On should have been about them; where is the K-On prequel series? lol.

The skater goes to Japan and so he prepares with K-On (of all things) and when he goes to SKorea, he preps with some SK idol band? It seems that he just partakes of a part-an admittedly eclectic part-of the "music culture" of whichever country he is next competing in. That kind of lessens the "He's a K-On! fan!" idea that I was getting from the headline.
