e-sports and baduk are ready to be involved in sports
Assembly Man, 'Lee Sangheon'(Democratic Party of Korea, Ulsan) has proposed the papers suggesting that brain sports such as baduk and e-sports deserve to be invovled in 'sports criteria'.
For now, the definition of 'sports' is making the body and spirit healthy by physical activities.
However, the range of sports has been enlarged these days, such as skateboarding, surfing, climbing, e-sports, and baduk.
Especially, in case of e-sports, it has been adopted as an official sport in Asian Games.
If the paper is accepted, the definition of sports will be slightly changed to 'making the body and spirit healthy by physical and brain activities'.
