Year: 2000

Set: Teleca - '99 Golden Glove (Rate)

Card: #GG01 Min-Tae Chung


“ I was confused for a moment. I thought I should know most if not all Golden Glove winners in my lifetime but then I noticed the writing on the back and realized this was a foreign card, just with an English title. Weird that an Asian card would have English words on it to me. ” -davidhandberry

“ Reminds me of the flair wave of the future inserts from the mid 90s ” -Paullilko

“ Why can't Topps be more like this? It reminds me of the Astros' rainbow unis. ” -Kirbythedodger

“ Looking for Mike battle. My name is Jon Pierson l went to school with him6 ” -Unclejon91

“ I just have to wonder why the entire back is in a foreign language (I am not fluent in the characters, so I do not know exactly which), but the front has "Golden Glove" in English. ” -muskie027

Yay! One of mine. Chung Min-tae played for 8 seasons in KBO and 2 years in NPB.  One of the more popular pitchers in Korea during his time.

Awesome that we have enough Korean cards on the site, now, to start showing up in COTD.  Great stuff, Dan!

Awesome! A Korean card as a RCOTD. He played for my favorite Japanese team, the Yomiuri Giants.

Nice Asian card (someone said Korean?) I see they kept up with US card makers so that a 2000 Korean card looks like a 2000 US card.

What I also noticed was that two Asian cards (NPB, KBO) were COTD in a 5-day span.
