Soccer or baseball? What is the most popular sport in South Korea?

http://www.stadiumzone.net

Shows a lot of Korean stadiums and because most Korean stadiums seen to be soccer stadiums, I guess soccer is more popular than baseball in Korea?

I'm a big soccer fan and I like baseball too. Smile

Soccer, I would imagine.

English, Italian and Champions League soccer is televized without fail. I can't recall seeing an American baseball game televized, but I may be wrong. Korean baseball is always on TV, but nevertheless, I get the distinct impression that soccer is more popular.

Baseball games get much larger crowds than soccer games. If you go to a K-League fixture expect about 10% of the stadium to be full.

MLB is on frequently and so is Japanese baseball.
