Comment sections filled with remarks praising the joyful expression and raw emotion displayed by the South Korean announcers, echoing the sentiment that Kim and Park's infectious exuberance enhances the excitement of the game. As the finals continue, it’s clear that their spirited narrations have added an extraordinary layer to the viewer experience, captivating audiences far beyond their home turf.
