Korean + Scottish Name Files
I bet I know what you guys have been thinking. 'I'd love to run a Korean league, but the Asian names file is mostly Japanese! What can I do?'
Well, now I can make available the 'korean name file set'!. It is, of course, not without its problems. First off, Korean surnames do not vary - in fact, around 20 cover 60% of the population. There's only 68 surnames in surname file. This is a problem.
Of course, that's only if you Europeanise the name (as has been done with Byung-Hyung Kim and Chan-Ho Park) by putting the surname last. If you want to avoid the problem, or you've got the 'when in Rome' syndrome, swap the names around
I know nothing about Korea or Korean society, so if I have done something ludicrously stupid, please tell me.
I tried to collect some logos from the Korean Baseball League website and ran into 2 problems: one, they're all in Korean, and two, they're such wonderful websites that they are so full of flash animations you can't find an image that just sits still.
Hopefully, these will be of use to someone. Don't forget my Scottish name file either - you could run a Highland/Korean league!
