I'll try to explain the situation with the WKBL as best as I can.<br/><br/>1. There is no rule disallowing foreign players next year. However, the league (which is split into a summer season and a winter season, up until this year) will not be accepting foreign players for its summer league this year.<br/><br/>2. From next year, apparently the WKBL is going to scrap the summer/winter seasons to go with one long season running from about April to December. There will be a short break during the summer sometime, but it's one season. Since LJ was contracted for three winter seasons, which traditionally lasted from around January to April, I don't know how that will work out.<br/><br/>3. The 2008 Beijing Olympics may screw up a lot of schedules. So far, there hasn't been anything announced though, since Korea hasn't actually qualified for the Olympics yet. So, hi, I’m from Korea.
