That's cool about the Hite beer ad in the golf rags. I think she's in for a lot of exposure in the US given that her sponsor is making a big push for market share. I read something awhile ago that said they figured her US Open win was worth 90M US in advertising world wide. www.koreatimes.co.kr/www/news/biz/2015/07/123_182665.html |

Luv The Rocket....by far the best dressed of the 4some. I'll say. Arg Glad you came over to this site looking for me. HappyFan (the admin of this site) has put a carrot in front of me.....if I can recruit 10 WRX members to this site......he'll send me a box of kimchi and a pair of knee highs so I can give them to The Rocket when I attend the KPMG in Seattle next year. For those that don't know Arg...he's really great guy and a member on WRX and he's the author of a women's golf fashion thread. Not only do the Koreans dominate the LPGA....but the KLPGA pros dominate his fashion thread. www.golfwrx.com/forums/topic/1174523-lpgaklpgaletjlpga-golf-fashion-on-course/Arg also was the author and custodian of a great WRX nickname thread until the clown mods at WRX deleted it....WTF. |

IMO...it was Se Ri who single handily sent S. Korea into a golf craze. |

Hite needs to take advantage of In Gee's nickname to garner any attention in the US.....something cheesy like. "Don't fear the Hite.....fly like Dumbo" A commercial of a In Gee faced Dumbo elephant holding a Hite beer in it's trunk....flying off a cliff or building.......this commercial should be sandwiched with the other obnoxious commercials (GolfNow dinosaur commercials and Rory's...I'll break rocks...Omega commercial) that are telecasted on GC. If minilistglfr sees this...... he can create a meme....he's great at Photoshop. |

IMO...it was Se Ri who single handily sent S. Korea into a golf craze. In many ways, yes, but there are some differences here. Se Ri opened up the LPGA, but Mi Hyun Kim was really the first player to really be successful while playing both the KLPGA and LPGA Tours (Se Ri left the KLPGA Tour when she joined in 1998 and only played sparingly), which opened up a pathway for players like Hyo Joo and In Gee to have success while still being based in Korea. Grace was already playing amateur golf when Se Ri was on Tour, but Grace was the first Korean to win the US Women's Amateur and opened up a pathway through amateur golf in the US. So, yes, Se Ri was the godmother of the LPGA invasion, but Grace and Peanut also played a pretty significant role. |

Take your pick: Argonne, you left her "human ear" in the second one. It is kind of missing the whole point really.  |
