Royals' South Korean superfan will be in Kansas City for Game 1

SungWoo Lee, the Royals superfan who captured the attention of all of Kansas City earlier this year, is headed back to town after the team's unlikely run to the World Series.

SungWoo Lee, the Royals superfan who captured the attention of all Kansas City earlier this year, is headed back to town after the team's unlikely run to the World Series.

Lee has been rooting for the team for almost 20 years, but made his first trip to see them play, a trip which coincided with the Royals going on a winning streak.

Now, thanks to the help of filmmaker Josh Swade and the hashtag #BringBackSungWoo, he is coming back to catch the games.

The team's fans hope their South Korean good luck charm will help them continue their improbable winning streak.
