Below are but a few of the standouts.<\/p>\n<ul class=\"pageList mb\">\n<li><strong>League of Legends Champions Korea<\/strong><br \/>\nLCK is the top division for <a title=\"League of Legends esports betting\" href=\"\/league-of-legends\/\">League of Legends esports<\/a> in South Korea. The competition launched in 2012 and is widely considered the world&#8217;s strongest domestic league for LoL, with Korean teams going on to win the League of Legends World Championship five times in a row between 2013 and 2017.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Global StarCraft II League<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Korean esports boom began with the original StarCraft competitions that started up in the early 2000s. Despite the rising popularity of games such as Counter-Strike: Global Offensive, Dota 2 and League of Legends, <a title=\"StarCraft II esports betting\" href=\"\/starcraft-ii\/\">StarCraft II esports<\/a> and the GSL continue to draw a massive following in South Korea.<\/li>\n<li><strong>World Cyber Games<\/strong><br \/>\nThe Republic of Korea hosted the first four editions of the World Cyber Games, which made their debut in Yongin in 2000. Dubbed the &#8216;Olympics of esports&#8217;, the tournament ran every year until 2013 and featured representatives from as many as 78 countries. The WCG is scheduled to return from a six-year hiatus in 2019.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr>\n<h2>Top esports teams from South Korea<\/h2>\n<p>Korea has produced some of the most successful esports squads on the planet. Teams known worldwide include:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"pageList\">\n<li><strong>SK Telecom T1<\/strong><br \/>\nBacked by one of Korea&#8217;s leading telecommunications providers, SK Telecom T1 were a dominant force in the old StarCraft leagues and have continued to pick up StarCraft II titles on a regular basis. The team has also enjoyed considerable success in League of Legends, winning the LoL World Championship three times between 2013 and 2016.<\/li>\n<li><strong>KT Rolster<\/strong><br \/>\nAlso bankrolled by the Korean telecom industry, KT Rolster (short for &#8216;roller coaster&#8217;) are giants of the StarCraft esports scene. They won the now-defunct StarCraft Proleague three times and have also enjoyed some success in the League of Legends realm, clinching the LCK Summer Split title in 2018.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Samsung Galaxy<\/strong><br \/>\nOne of the world&#8217;s most recognisable tech brands was a major player in South Korean esports between 2000 and 2017. The Samsung Galaxy teams were especially prominent in League of Legends, winning the spring season of LCK in 2014 and taking out the LoL World Championship on two occasions.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<hr>\n<h2>Online gambling in South Korea<\/h2>\n<p>The Republic of Korea has an interesting relationship with gambling. All forms of betting were outlawed when the country was formed after the Second World War, and it was once illegal for Korean nationals to frequent casinos when travelling overseas.<\/p>\n<p>Korea&#8217;s gambling legislation has changed considerably over time. Betting on horse racing, boat racing and cycling was made legal only a few years after the initial laws were laid down, as were national lotteries. The casino ban was lifted in the 1960s, and now there are 17 venues that offer gambling games to foreign visitors.<\/p>\n<p>Online betting is another matter altogether. It remains illegal for a company or individual to operate any kind of internet gambling business in South Korea. People continue to flout those laws, however, and the country&#8217;s black market for online gaming and wagering has an estimated value of well over US $60 billion.<\/p>\n<p>While there are no online sportsbooks licensed in Korea, gamblers can take their business to any number of offshore betting companies. The government has blocked some websites, but that is no obstacle to anybody using a virtual private network (VPN). Korean authorities have no jurisdiction overseas, so there is very little they can do about it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The Republic of Korea is one of the world&#8217;s most forward-thinking nations, but its gambling laws belong to a bygone&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":15,"featured_media":9597,"parent":0,"menu_order":1,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"ghostkit_customizer_options":"","ghostkit_custom_css":"","ghostkit_custom_js_head":"","ghostkit_custom_js_foot":"","ghostkit_typography":"","footnotes":""},"class_list":["post-6284","page","type-page","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6284"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/page"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/15"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6284"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6284\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":25140,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/pages\/6284\/revisions\/25140"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9597"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/esportbet.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6284"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
