Corona changed, how Korea enjoys baseball The tent stand and beer restaurant also appear in front of the stadium
The fifth day of 2020 Children’s Day professional baseball came to an end. Professional baseball, which was scheduled to open on March 28, was temporarily postponed due to the spread of the corona virus and started on the 38th.
The Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) decided to start with a spectator to safely operate the league early in the opening, and then consider ways to allow spectators to enter the stage step by step while observing the crown situation.
For the first time in Korean baseball history, special scenes were captured on and off the baseball field the same day the crowd was deployed.
◇ ‘Location distance’ with a large baseball The opening game on this day was a special one for the city. KT invited children’s member Iraon (9) to the Lotte exhibition that was held at Suwon’s home.
Instead of standing on the mound and throwing the ball, Lee went directly to the large baseball ball and walked from the mound to home plate. It was a “save” poetry that never touched anyone.
As catcher Jang Seong-woo collided with the five of them on the transparent ball that came in front of the plate, the city was shot safely.
◇ ‘Even outside the stadium’ … Opening joy Corona couldn’t stop
Baseball fans who were unable to enter the stadium cheered for cheering outside or near the stadium fence. Fans fought and watched outside the fence of Kia Champions Field in Gwangju, where the opening match between KIA and Kiwoom was held. A tent was set up in front of the stadium and the family was also captured.
‘Jamsil Rival’ At a restaurant near Jamsil Stadium in Songpa-gu, Seoul, where LG and Doosan opened, fans watched television broadcasts in uniform.
◇ Empty audience seats, masked cheerleaders
The spectator’s seat was empty, but on the cheering stage, the leader and cheer team put on a mask and held a cheering match. Although there is no spectator, each team decided to lead the animation team.
If the regular cheerleaders were targeting fans in the audience, this day, they were cheering on the broadcast camera so fans watching the game could cheer together through television and online streaming.
KT installed a large 400-inch LED screen in front of the animation platform at first base and broadcast it in real time for fans to participate on social media. The 300 fans who participated in the broadcast of the support exhibition in real time sang the song of joy along with the director of the ovation.
