Charming Points of Doosan Bears




WHY BEARS ATTRACTED ME FOR A LONG TIME?



     I have many hobbies and interests like music and game, but today I want to talk about my favorite sport, baseball. I really enjoy watching baseball games, and I want to introduce my favorite baseball team, Doosan Bears to you.

   
     Doosan Bears is a Seoul-based team with LG Twins and Nexen Heroes. Then, why am I a big fan of Doosan Bears for a long time, not those 2 teams? Bears is a team of passion and tenacity. Bears is not the strongest team, but it has the attraction that makes fans cannot stop cheering. When fans almost give up, Bears turn the game around. Last year, when Bears barely advanced to the semifinals, nobody expected them to go to the Korean Series. However, despite of exhaustion and injury of players, they finally advanced to the final and sadly lost with the score of 3:4. Sadly, I couldn't go to the baseball stadium last year, but I remember the thrilling moment of victory when I went to the Jamsil Stadium to see Bears games. This year, I'm sure I'll go to cheer for them a lot. Unfortunately, many popular players leaved Bears this year, but I will keep cheering, because I believe the spirit of Bears will not go away.

Greetings from South Korea!




    Hello! I feel like I'm just muttering alone, but I want to introduce myself for anybody somewhere.
First, my name is Eunchae Lee and I live in Seoul, South Korea. My hometown is a silent place because people go out to work in the morning and come back in evening. There are a big park, department stores and restaurants, so it's a good place to live in.

    I have two elder brothers, each 7 and 5 years older. As you guess, my home was full of noisy sound including yelling and crying. Now my brothers live outside near workplace, so I fell a little bit alone. I also have a cute cat named Nero, but she is a white-hairred Turkish Angora. Nero has always been aside me so I think her as my family member.

    Now,let me talk about my interests and hobbies. I really like music, both listening and singing. I don't have a particular favorite music genre, I just listen to all. You guys may heard of K-Pop and I love it too. Famous groups as K-Pop singers are idol groups, I think, and I like Infinite, Bigbang, and 2NE1. Beside them, I like Korean modern rock bands, especially Nell and Jaurim, Park Jung Hyun, and Gummi who are Korean R&B singers.

 
Also, I like hiphop and my favorite is Epik High. I said I love singing and this is not my own characteristic. Most Koreans love singing and dancing so karaokes are all over the place in here. Of course, I go to karaoke at least once a week. Also, I am the vocal of a rock band in my university department and I am really looking forward to performing in front of audience. Then, move on to another hobbies. I really like playing and watching computer games. Playing computer games is a common hobby, but what is about watching? I think you may wonder. Game Industry is really developed in Korea, so the concept of E-Sports is first settled in here, too. Now, lots of progamers playing Starcraft and League of Legends compete not only in Korea but worldwide. For example, last year's LOL World Championship Final was held in LA Staples Center with huge audience and online viewers.

   So far, this was my introduction about where I live and what I like. For more information and details, look at my Glossi Magazine I linked to!
