'Citizen Brock: South Korea considers a Canadian'
http://asiancorrespondent.com/98905/south-korea-ice-hockey-brock-radunske/
"Last year the Korean Football Association attempted to naturalize Brazilian soccer player Eninho in the hopes he may play for the Korean national team. The much debated case became a litmus test for the public and official sentiment on the issue. The response was largely negative. The Korean Times vehemently argued, with thinly veiled references to his �foreignness�, that Eninho was surely incompatible with other Korean players."
"Is Brock Radunske�s case indicative of an acceptance of Korea�s changing face? Maybe, but pertinent to this whole conversation is the fact that �it�s only hockey� (hockey fans, feel free to leave angry comments below). Ice Hockey is very low down the Korean sporting ladder; in fact it�s barely on it. Brock Radunske is therefore unlikely to be a visible face and Koreans are unlikely to worry about him representing their country.
Soccer and baseball players will still have to wait."
