Lee Sung Woo has been a loyal fan of the Royals in Korea since the 1990s. While you would think most overseas fans would be drawn to winning teams of the 90's such as the Atlanta Braves and New York Yankees, Lee Sung Woo says he preferred the underdog. He's a frequent poster on a website called Royals Corner, and on his Twitter, he shares his thoughts on each Royals baseball game despite having to stay up to late hours in South Korea to watch them. The Royals decided to fly him over to Kansas City from South Korea... and that was when history was made.
