Sports have been considered as an unpopular subject in TV dramas with many shows about sports and athletes failing to garner popularity. However, SBS managed to hit a home run in 2019 with the baseball series Hot Stove League, garnering a 19.1 percent viewership rating and winning an award at the WorldFest-Houston International Film Festival.

Upcoming Netflix series
Racket Boys is set to deliver a heartwarming and humorous story about a ragtag middle school badminton team. Look forward to the comical series focusing on the young athletes’ dreams and aspirations.
Yoon Hae-kang (Tang Jun-sang) is a competitive baseball player forced to move to the countryside, when his father gets a new job as a coach tasked with reviving a badminton team that’s on the brink of extinction. He struggles to adjust to rural life as well as playing badminton.
Hae-kang is joined by a motley crew of other players with distinct characteristics. There’s the youngest team member Lee Yong-tae (Kim Kang-hoon) who talks a lot and is always in front of a computer. Bang Yoon-dam (Son Sang-yeon) is glued to his phone and is also an attention seeker. Then we have Na Woo-chan (Choi Hyun-wook) who is into hip hop, fashion, and is also quite kind-hearted.
The whole "Racket Boys" cast and PD Jo Young Kwang appeared to welcome the viewers to the upcoming SBS drama during their recently concluded press conference.
