]]> Comment on Gaelic Football in Gwangu by Gael http://gwangjunews.net/2009/09/gaelic-football-in-gwangu/comment-page-1/#comment-15 Gael Fri, 20 Nov 2009 22:51:38 +0000 http://gwangjunews.net/?p=61#comment-15 Great article! However, a few descrepancies. 'The game is played with two 7-minute halves and the first 9 points decides the game. That’s how it’s played in Korea, however.' Not true. The game is played with 9 players on each side in Asia and 15 players in Ireland. The score is not limited and the game does not end when it reaches a certain number. Great article!

I envy that you got to watch Haitai in the early 80's. How about the Tigers getting it done with a Game 7 walk-off. Unreal. I'm working on another story on Korean Series for December issue.

The magazine is wonderful and it has provided me with so much useful information that I was unable to find elsewhere. I am currently living in Gwangju -- I arrived a short time ago -- and I am teaching English at a language school in Gwangju. I studied communication studies with a concentration in journalism at my university in New York and have been searching for freelance opportunities. After reading through Gwangju News I am very interested in being a part of your publication. Are there volunteer positions available for writers? Please let me know what help you are interested in, I am very much looking forward to speaking with you. Best, Anna Martinez It was a pleasure reading your editorial.

I remember the pojangmachas in front of the stadium selling roasted sparrows, barbecued chicken innards, chicken feet, and soju--a great way to celebrate a win or mourn a loss. Now, I am back in Korea after 25 years (Jeonju this time), and my two trips to Mudeung Stadium have been the nostalgic highlights of my stay--the Tigers' run has been tremendous. I hope for a couple of games in October as well. Thanks for the article.
