Jeju UnitedIt’s a cold, wet, midweek April night at the Jeju World Cup Stadium. The home faithful have turned out in droves to see the big cup game against Pusan. Despite their wild enthusiasm, the Jeju fans (known as Insane Islanders) have yet to see a home victory this year. In fact they have yet to see a home goal. Jeju once again in this match goes one goal down, but like the great fans that they are, the supporters keep on cheering, never giving up hope. And then, in the final minute, Jeju United delivers what everyone has long been waiting for – a goal.

Baseball Stadium The amateur league baseball season on Jeju has begun and the huge stadium behind the bus terminal in Jeju City is alive with the sounds of the game.

Jeju Life managed to track down one of those foreigners, Canadian Troy MacLellan, to find out more.

A review of the PGA European Tour Ballantines 2008 event, Jeju, South Korea

KJ Choi @ Ballantines Jeju, South Korea The world golf spotlight shone briefly on Korea’s largest island in March as the European Tour arrived in Jeju. The biggest tournament in Korea and the fourth largest in Asia, the inaugural Ballantine’s Championship at Pinx Golf Club was sanctioned by the European, Asian and Korean Tours. The Championship was celebrated by the blending of an extremely rare 40 year old Ballantine’s Scotch whiskey. Only eight bottles of the ‘Championship Blend’ exist, with one bottle being sold for $12,888 during a silent auction at the opening ceremony. After presenting the bottle, tournament players were introduced to a crowd of 300 people, as Scottish string quartet Siren and the Red Hot Chilli Pipers performed traditional Scottish music.
