I crack up every time I hear Pyeongchang being pronounced wrong on TV.

here’s an idea: hire olympic commentators that actually pronounce Pyeongchang correctly!! (hint: not a hard A)

Hey, America/NBC! Why can’t our broadcasters pronounce PyeongChang correctly as the Canada/CBC broadcasters do?🤔

All these white commentators had how many months to figure out how to pronounce Pyeongchang & this *motions vaguely at tv* is what they gave us

😭

#WinterOlympics2018 #WinterOlympics BTW, Pyeongchang is pronounced “Pee-yon-chong.” These announcers can at least do their homework! “Put some respeck on the name” to quote @birdman

PSA Olympics Reporters: Get help with pronouncing Pyeongchang. “Pyeong” is one syllable and pronounced “pyoung”. “Chang” has a soft “a”

like nails on chalkboard what i’m hearing

@michaelsmith please learn how to properly pronounce PyeongChang the next time you talk about the Winter Olympics on ESPN Sports Center… it’s embarrassing that you keep mispronouncing it. Dude, it’s like fingernails to a chalkboard… down right painful to hear!

My dad pronounced Pyeongchang as PF Chang’s and now I never know if he’s referring to the Olympics or what he’s having for dinner.
