What is a "vernacular daily"? Or shall I say, what is not a "vernacular daily"?

I would venture to guess that it's the native Korean language paper, as opposed to an English spin off of the paper. Similar to how Yomiuri Shimbun in Japan is the native vernacular daily, while The Daily Yomiuri is published in a foreign language (English).
In the case of the article in question, The Korea Times, reporting on the article in Sports Hankook, is not a vernacular daily, as it is not written in the local language.
Well, that's how I understand it, anyway.

About
This is a site about Pro Yakyu (Japanese Baseball), not about who the next player to go over to MLB is. It's a community of Pro Yakyu fans who have come together to share their knowledge and opinions with the world. It's a place to follow teams and individuals playing baseball in Japan (and Asia), and to learn about Japanese (and Asian) culture through baseball.
It is my sincere hope that once you learn a bit about what we're about here that you will join the community of contributors.
