'It's my first time seeing it, and I'm looking for something a little flashy,' said Ha Byung-jun, a 21-year-old student and Tottenham fan from South Korea. The drone show will feature dynamic Tottenham-themed animations and images, paying tribute to the club's storied heritage and passionate global supporters, designer OWOWWW Creative (Hong Kong) said. According to the Tottenham Hotspur Football Club's website, the drone show aims to mark the team's very first north London derby game outside the UK against Arsenal, and pay tribute to the club's history.
