In 2014, long time KC Royals fan Sung-Woo Lee captivated baseball fans across the country with his trek to Kansas City to see his beloved Royals in person for the first time. The trip coincided with a Kansas City Royals winning streak that vaulted KC into first place in August for the first time in more than a decade.
The KC Royals went on to win the AL pennant in 2014 and take the World Series title in 2015, which helped fans across the country hear how Sung-Woo became a Kansas City Royals fan by watching Armed Forces television to improve his English in the mid-90’s.
