Fastpong CTO Kie Brooks Featured on KBS Television Series My Neighbour Charles (이웃집 찰스)

We're delighted to share that Kie Brooks, Chief Technology Officer of Fastpong Corp., has been featured in the popular KBS television series My Neighbour Charles (이웃집 찰스).

The long-running programme follows the lives of people from around the world who have chosen to make Korea their home, highlighting their work, passions, and contributions to Korean society. We were honoured that KBS chose to tell part of Kie's story.

While many people know Fastpong through our table tennis training systems, mobile application, and integrated ball shooter technology, fewer people know the person leading much of the software and technology behind them. As CTO, Kie is responsible for the development of Fastpong's software platform, firmware, protocol design, training systems, electronics, and connected technologies that power our products.

The programme offers viewers a glimpse behind the scenes—not only into life as a British engineer and entrepreneur living in Korea, but also into the work, dedication, and occasional challenges involved in developing innovative sports technology.

At Fastpong, we believe that great coaching should be supported by great technology. Our mission is to help players of every age and ability train more effectively through intelligent software, engaging practice modes, detailed performance analysis, and reliable hardware. Every new feature is designed with one goal in mind: helping players improve while making practice more enjoyable.

We would like to extend our sincere thanks to the entire KBS production team for their professionalism, enthusiasm, and hard work throughout filming. It was a fantastic experience, and we are grateful for the opportunity to introduce both Kie and Fastpong to viewers across Korea.
