Hi,

Im flying to Seoul in a few weeks. I am a huge football fan in the Uk, i was wondering how easy it is to catch Premiership games over there? Im a Man utd fan so i expect they should be on a fair bit? with Js Park in the team, there must be a fair bit of interest.

Also what do you think Seoul will be like for the world cup? With the time difference, i suspect a lot of games will be in the early hours there, will bars still be open beyond 2 am? Need to find i good place to watch england reach the semis and lose to on a shootout!

in answer to your first question...

Basically every man utd and Tottenham game is show but outside those 2 teams it is slim pickings...

Bars don't close here until 6 in the morning, World Cup without a doubt there will be plenty of places to watch the games

I don't know about cable TV as each area has it's own package, but I have Skylife and can watch the games on Star Sports.
The Mann. Utd. games are shown on MBC-ESPN, which every cable package offers.
Note: MBC-ESPN= Korean commentary
Star Sports= English commentary, plus the highlight shows.

Anyway, for more info on Skylife go here:
