I'll be there next month in Seoul, Gangnam area. I'm pretty deadly with a badmitton racquet. I'll make sure I bring it. |

Badmitton, obviously isn't my first sport, however, I can play any racquet sport very well. |

How about if you we play for it? If you win, we call it badMINTON, If I win, we call it Badmitton. I'll start practicing . |

Badmantong is very popular in Korea so there are numerous courts. Most parks have them. You might think you're pretty good, but the Koreans will put you in your place.
I get to call it Badmantong because I've defeated several players over the years and have earned the right. |

PM me when you find a place. I'm not there yet, to help look for a spot. I'll be there after the 9th of June. we can meet up to play a week or two after that. I'll be the one obviously sponsored by Pro-Kennex. |

Nah, I've worked too hard to earn my right to call it Badmantong over the years. I've decided to quit while ahead. Now I only play uncoordinated ladies and if it gets too close with them the I just fake heat stroke.
However, there are primo covered courts in Hongdea/Sinchon where you can play rain/shine/wind/snow...well, I'm not too sure about that last one. If you want details on that I can let you know. It's sort of a secret, but you two sound worthy. Other than that, I've never had a problem finding normal outdoor courts in any park. |
