Hong Kong protest song replaces China anthem at rugby match in S Korea
short by Mayukh Debnath / on Monday, 14 November, 2022
A song embraced by Hong Kong pro-democracy protesters was played instead of China's national anthem before the final match, between South Korea and Hong Kong, of the Asia Rugby Sevens Series's second leg on Sunday. On Monday, the tournament's South Korean organisers apologised and said the wrong song was played because of a human error and was not politically motivated.
