SUPER JUNIOR hits U.S?

And they better thank the World Cup craze!

Among all the 2010 FIFA World Cup songs that K-Pop stars produced to support the Taeguk Warriors, looks like Super Junior’s Victory Korea caught the attention of the international scene, landing a spot for the ESPN.com’s top 11 World Cup-inspired songs.

So far, Super Junior’s song is leading the vote with a whooping 66.9% out of 774 votes, beating the official World Cup song – Shakira’s Waka Waka, among others! And that number increases by the minute!

As a quick reminder, Victory Korea was performed by five out of thirteen Super Junior members - Leeteuk, Yesung, Shindong, Sungmin and Eunhyuk. The song is also an OST of  the film, Dreams Come True, a story of North and South Korean soldiers coming together for the World Cup.

Moreover, for those who do not know, ESPN stands for Entertainment Sports Programming Network. It is an American cable channel featuring sports-related activities and is really huge not just in America but across the world.

So, if you want to vote for Super Junior or the other World Cup-inspired songs, you can do so here.  Meanwhile, South Korea will go face to face with Greece today at 8:30 p.m. KST. Can we wave our red flags and say oh le oh, oh oh le oh, victory Korea?
