Two days ago, when the Seoul Metropolitan Government announced plans for a dome stadium in Jamsil, LG manager Yeom Kyeong-yeop, who has to live in a rented room,카지노사이트 left a bitter note and spoke about the reflection of a baseball player.
Seoul City announced plans for Jamsil Dome Stadium on the 18th. The plan is to create a waterside ecological cultural space connected to the Han River along with a world-class ‘Sports and MICE Complex’ including a dome stadium in Jamsil.
According to the Seoul Metropolitan Government, after the end of the 2025 season, the existing Jamsil Stadium will be demolished and construction of a dome stadium will begin in its place. It is planned to be completed by the end of 2031.
The city of Seoul said, “It is built in a dome shape, so it can operate stably without being affected by bad weather such as rain or heat waves,” and added, “We plan to connect the baseball stadium and the hotel to provide unique experiences in various areas of the hotel, such as guest rooms, restaurants, and fitness facilities.” He said.
Before the announcement, KBO, Doosan, and LG had requested to use Jamsil Main Stadium as a temporary stadium. It is in the same context that Busan City is also considering using the nearby Asiad Stadium as a replacement while building a new stadium at the site of Sajik Stadium. However, the Seoul Metropolitan Government opposed it due to safety concerns.
Because of this, Doosan and LG are suddenly forced to live in rented rooms. They are looking into using one of Gocheok Sky Dome, Incheon SSG Landers Field, Mokdong Stadium, and Suwon KT Wiz Park as a temporary home stadium.
This is embarrassing for Doosan and LG. Coach Yeom Kyeong-yeop said, “The most important thing is Doosan fans and LG fans. There should be no inconvenience for fans watching baseball. It is important that there should be no inconvenience and that they can watch baseball in a good environment.” “This is the first issue that needs to be agreed upon. We must think of the fans first,” he emphasized.
He also said, “The opinion of the KBO and the club is to use a comprehensive stadium. Although there are safety issues, a comprehensive stadium should never be ruled out,” and “It is most convenient for fans to come right next to the place where games were played. Of course, it is safe.” “The problem is also important. This is a problem that the city and the club must resolve. If the passage is narrow, it can be made wider, and more can be made through construction. I do not think this will be difficult,” he repeatedly emphasized.
With this announcement from the Seoul Metropolitan Government, along with Dongdaemun Baseball Stadium, which was the cradle of Korean baseball, Jamsil Baseball Stadium will also disappear. Dongdaemun Baseball Stadium was established in 1959 and demolished in 2006. It is also where the 1983 professional baseball opening ceremony was held.
Manager Yeom Kyung-yeop made a decisive speech, especially recalling the time when the Dongdaemun Baseball Stadium was demolished. Director Yeom said, “Removing Dongdaemun Baseball Stadium was the worst. It killed the Dongdaemun commercial district. If a dome had been built in Dongdaemun, the Dongdaemun commercial district would have been completely saved. If a hotel had been built there, foreigners would come and the economy would have improved. 10,000 people a day. “Aren’t 5,000 people pouring into Dongdaemun?” he began.
He said, “Baseball people should have moved, and the baseball association should have moved. In the end, baseball people are stupid. We missed the optimal place. When Dongdaemun Stadium disappeared, baseball people did not hold a single demonstration. Everyone should have come together then. “Baseball players must reflect,” he said, raising his voice.
