'Crazy for Women's Baseball', Enters Netflix TOP 10... Unprecedented for a Documentary

SBS two-part special documentary 〈Crazy for Women's Baseball〉 is receiving a lot of attention.

The first episode of 〈Crazy for Women's Baseball〉, which aired on the 4th, made it to the top of Netflix's 'Today’s Top 10 in South Korea' within a day. The first part captured viewers' attention with the passionate journey of three players Kim Ra-kyung, Kim Hyun-a, and Park Joo-a who directly confront the prejudice that 'women cannot be baseball players!'

The excitement continued outside of the broadcast. On the evening of the 5th, the SBS program 〈Living for Baseball〉 featured the protagonists of 〈Crazy for Women's Baseball〉, generating explosive reactions. Kim Hyun-a and Park Joo-a appeared in the studio, while Kim Ra-kyung, who could not join due to the flu, participated in the interview via phone.

In particular, a supportive message from Lee Jung-hoo of the San Francisco Giants was introduced during the broadcast, adding to the buzz. Lee Jung-hoo congratulated the selection of Kim Hyun-a, Kim Ra-kyung, and Park Joo-a, saying, “If you need equipment or help, feel free to contact me anytime, and I will help with anything.” He continued, “Especially for Park Joo-a, who was selected by San Francisco, I will treat you to a meal. Since I came to San Francisco two years earlier, I know some good restaurants,” and sent a supportive video message.

SBS 〈Crazy for Women's Baseball〉 will continue with the second part 'Face the World's Strongest Japan', airing on January 11 (Sunday) at 11:05 PM.
