The professional baseball Kia Tigers will hold home games against LG from the 25th to the 27th at Gwangju-Kia Champions Field, celebrating 'Tigers True Fan WEEK' and inviting various guests for a ceremonial first pitch event.
On the first day, true fan actor Choi Byeong-chan will be invited as the ceremonial first pitcher. Choi Byeong-chan, who frequently attends Kia games and expresses his unique fan spirit, shared his thoughts, saying, "I am happy and honored to be the ceremonial first pitcher for Kia, the championship team from last year. My success rate of attending games is quite high, and I want to convey good vibes and energy through the ceremonial first pitch. I hope the team achieves good results this season too."
On the second day, the 26th, the character Judy from the famous Gwangju pudding brand Judy Marie will take the mound as the ceremonial first pitcher. Kia and Judy Marie have been conducting various collaborations at Champions Field since the 11th, receiving great responses from fans.
On the last day, the 27th, true fan idols Cravity's Minhee and Woobin will each fulfill the roles of ceremonial first pitcher and batter. Cravity, which had to turn back last year due to a rain cancellation, is set to visit Champions Field once again for the ceremonial first pitch and batting this year.
Minhee and Woobin of Cravity said, "Last year, the ceremonial first pitch was canceled due to rain, so we were disappointed, but we are grateful to have this opportunity again. We will do our best not only in the ceremonial first pitch and batting but also in our cheers to pray for Kia's victory."
