Just catching up with this now. Not sure how South Korea didn't get penalized. I saw like 4 different things they should have gotten called on just watching it live. Twice a skater not in the race blocked the trailing teams, they impeded China in the finish(China did the same), and South Korea tripped Canada even if it was unintentional. This was far worse than the Hamelin one in the 1500 which Korea also got the home town call on.
All you have to do is have hundreds of Koreans threaten skaters with tweets when they correctly get penalized in a prior final and they get free reign to do whatever they want because they don't want that shit happening again.
Not sure what Canada did if it wasn't for not finishing properly which I think they did. Really should have been Italy first and Canada 2nd. Oh well.
