Hey guys just wondering how popular Formula 1 is in South Korea?
Are there any bars that play the races live? |

Korea GP lose money each year.
Put it this way, Korea is not sports mad like NZ. You'd think an average young man would know:
1. at least half the teams in K-League (soccer) or current champion
2. most of the baseball teams
3. last time Korea beat Japan in anything
but no...
Sebastian Vettel is a nobody in Korea.
Some international sports stars well known in Korea, can you guess who they are?

| I watched it live last October. I believe they are coming to Korea again, even though they are losing money, I think they are under some sort of contract. I could be wrong. |

| We get StarSports as part of our cable package with SkyLife. The picture quality is not great but the races are shown live. I've seem them showing the races at Sam Ryans as well. |
