Hanwha Eagles, who broke the record related to spectators last year, marked the beginning of another history from the opening of the season.

An official from Hanwha said on the 28th, "All seats were sold out as of 12:07 p.m." There are no empty seats in the 17,000-seat stands.

Hanwha, which has performed well enough to advance to the Korean Series for the first time in 19 years since opening its new stadium Hanwha Life Ball Park last year, set a new record of selling out 47 games, well over half of its 73 home games, and attracted an average of 16,875 spectators for the season, recording a phenomenal 99.3% share.

Ahead of this season, he recruited Kang Baek-ho for four years and 10 billion won as a free agent and returned Jonathan Ferraza for the first time in two years. Rookie Oh Jae-won of the first round showed off his potential in the exhibition game amid high expectations and took on the heavy responsibility of being a leadoff center fielder from the opening game.

Now it has become a team aiming to win, a bigger dream, and fans are ready to cheer more enthusiastically with the pride of being a strong team.

This day's game is a must-see game. They lost to Kiwoom (including Nexen Heroes) all three times in the 2015 and 2018 and 2023 opening games.

Moreover, this game is the first home game in 18 years since 2008 in Daejeon. The away cheering seats were filled with orange waves, and the players are also vowing to win.

The national anthem was played by popular musician Stella Jang, and the first pitch will be thrown by Park Chan-ho, a "Korean Express" who spent the last years of his career at Hanwha. After the end of the fifth inning, a fireworks performance is also prepared.

Hanwha set up the starting lineup with Oh Jae-won (center fielder), Jonathan Ferraza (right wing), Moon Hyun-bin (left wing), Noh Si-hwan (third baseman), Kang Baek-ho (designated hitter), Chae Eun-sung (first baseman), Ha Joo-seok (second baseman), Choi Jae-hoon (captor), and Shim Woo-jun (striker). The starting pitcher is Wilkel Hernandez.

The Kiwoom will face Lee Ju-hyung (center fielder), An Chi-hong (designated hitter), Trenton Brooks (first baseman), Choi Joo-hwan (third baseman), Eo Jun-seo (striker), Kim Gun-hee (catcher), Lim Ji-yeol (left fielder), Park Han-gyeol (second baseman), and Lee Hyung-jong (right fielder). The starting pitcher is Raul Alcanta.
