LG Twins

A couple weeks ago, I went to an LG Twins baseball game at Jamsil Stadium in Seoul. There weren't very many people there but those who were had a good time.





Of course, I was interested in the cheerleaders. Next time I'll get a seat closer and in better vew of them so I can get some better photos. It was interesting to see the male cheerleader. He was the lead cheerleader. With hand signals and whistle blowing, he was able to lead the crowd in organized cheers. You just don't see that in America. Male cheerleaders in America wear costumes. Anyways, this guy was pumped up the whole game and the crowd responded well to his cheering comands.



I didn't get the impression that this guy was on the cheerleading payroll.



Here is a video of how pumped the crowd was. Remember, this is a regular season game in August. I think Koreans are more into group activities like cheering than Americans are.



On the way out, I took some photos of the area. This is the Olympic stadium from the 1988 Olympic Games.



This is a photo of the apartments still under construction nearby. It still amazes me how many of these aparmtent clusters exist and how fast they build them.
