A couple Koreans have won gold medals in the 2008 Summer Olympics with some thrilling and in the case of Judo now-champ Choi Min-Ho, downright gangsta style wins. Choi's victory in Judo is particularly fist pumping because he won the final match with a "devastating move called the maximum ippon" (an ippon is the highest score one can receive in judo). It's crazy how he just quite literally flips it on all his opponents and then the gold medal finishing move is just straight nasty.
