We are two long-time foreigners living in South Korea who really love sports and love talking about sports. We've been to matches of all kinds, from the boring (Fencing) to the amazing (B-ball playoffs). Our podcast is focused on the Korean sports market for listeners who want to know the big questions about it. We are not a topical podcast (no time for that) but from time to time we will have season previews and playoff predictions.
