Asian Games 2018: Five reasons why India's loss against Korea could be good for kabaddi

#1 A spark of hope for the world of Kabaddi

Korea put up a tough fight in the Kabaddi Masters and is a team to watch out for

The South Korean win, although not of a landslide margin is certainly going to put South Korean kabaddi in a massive place now, from where it can only grow and get more youngsters to try their hand at the game. No more pushovers in the game, the likes of Jang Kun Lee, Dong Geon Lee have already made a name for themselves and taken Korean kabaddi to a greater height.

In a way, this could also push other teams to put in their best foot forward and attract attention toward the game. In a country like Kenya, where the game is not recognized by the Kenyan government, the players will now see a new opportunity to improve their skills, and pose a challenge to the bigger teams and most importantly, the Indian team which will continue to pose the biggest threat on any given day.
