Japan ran in 50 points on South Korea at the weekend (you mean you didn't know this already?), and one Korean player in particular took some serious punishment.
Oh Youn-Hyung doesn't seem to be the best tackler in the world, but he gets 10 out of 10 for bravery, as he continued to throw himself in front of Japanese attackers time and time again, despite getting bounced onto his backside five times in the one game.
For anyone who hasn't experienced the feeling of being sent flying in the tackle, and having to watch the attacker run off as you get up off the ground, it's an utterly humiliating experience.
However, while the out-half's body may have been hurt, his ego certainly wasn't, as he continued to fling himself at the feet of Japanese runners.
We haven't seen one player take this much punishment in a game since Nick Abendanon felt the full force of the Tuilagi brothers in 2011.
