Because Indonesia has potential. In the past, golf in Korea was not a well-known sport and was even known as an expensive sport, but when Korean female golfer Park Se-Ri became champion on the LPGA and became a hero of women’s golf, since then golf has been around. Golf is becoming famous, and more and more children are switching to golf until now so that the world’s female golfers are dominated by golfers from Korea. This is what we want to do for Indonesia; we want to create new golf heroes in Indonesia.” CK Song said.
