this is a long shot but is there anyone here live or had came from korea? I would like to get a feel of the badminton scene in korea, their tv coverage, clubs, shops, badminton equipment selection and its prices.
Hi Brett and Cooler... from what I read off the web, badminton doesn't exactly seem popular in Korea as well, despite their continuous production of world classed players. Correct me if I got any info wrong.
Adel, you're rarely wrong, or else i go after your limbs Ya, bit of surprise to me too. Korean players look talented and fit from what i see of photos and tapes. If badminton is not big there, what is? BTW, brett and adel, thanks for adding your view to this thread, it sat lonely for a long time
If my memory hasn't failed me, baseball is a pretty big thing there. Do you know how they got more spectators for the Korean Open, btw? Apparently, a lucky draw form was given along with every ticket and the grand prize was a car. Some Singapore journalist suggested that the the same thing be done here to draw the crowds.
