I traveled across the world back to South Korea for a massive mission: to dive deep into the unique, highly technical, and incredibly passionate world of Korean bass fishing culture.
In this premier episode of Casting Korea, I touch down in Seoul and head straight to the legendary Lunker Mall. I sit down with Etienne and Sean Kim Si Hyun (General Manager of Lunker Mall) for an exclusive insider interview about how the industry ticks, what makes Korean anglers different, and how the sport has evolved. Plus, we take a look at the insane tackle selection, specialized baits, and gear JDM/KDM fans dream about.
This series is all about learning from the creators and industry minds who are deeply ingrained in the culture. Subscribe and hit the notification bell so you don’t miss an episode of this journey!
