I think this is the best love story about badminton and live. I hope they can come out with a movie about it.
For all Badminton fans in Vancouver, Canada, Kim DM is coming to Vancouver next January. Certainly, Ra KM will visit him there although she has to work as playing coach for her team Noonnoppi Daekyo. One last picture of them
OMG.....He's actually staying in vancouver for a year?? Or just use Vancouver as a transit point to other cities?
Better still, do a soap opera. Starring Kim DM and Ra KM as themselves. Looks like I have a better reason than Chinese food to go to Vancouver now.
I wish us AM VRC gang will have the honor of receiving freebies from KDM just as we did from Elaine . Wonder what Elaine told her teammates about Vancouver. Timeless, you better sharpen your Korean! Anyone know the exact date KDM arrives in Vancouver and the flight information? We will a group to welcome him .
Correct! I once saw Ra KM drilling other female players. That was awesome and DECISIVE! I think Ra KM will rule if they get married. By the way, they will receive together a monthly payment of 2000 US$ from the Korean Sports Association for life. This payment is a reduced level, otherwise more that 5000 US $ for whole life. Unfortunately, the KSA introduced a limit after some archers managed to receive a monthly payment over 4000 US$.
For some reason, I'm thinking I heard January 6th but I'm not sure. He supposedly has some deadline whereby he has to go by a certain date. Visa related? I can't thinking that if he's there to learn English, he'll have a heck of a time finding a place where he's needed as a coach and where he can avoid the temptation to be in the company of Korean speakers outside of classes. Badminton should help with that, though. I am sure no training centres are dominated by Korean-speaking Canadians.
His compatriot, Elaine, learned English from us too . We are a bunch of English speaking Asian guys and gals here . ha ha Not sure if Cappy75 has an extra room for the guy to stay . . .
Kim DM & Ra KM's Wedding Pictures There are already some pictures even if the wedding will take place tomorrow.
I like those pics, really different from their usual pics (on-court)... They really match each other... Ra looks really beautiful in those pics...
