A civic team that caused a sensation since its inaugural year, the Ulsan Whales, has achieved a huge milestone. After securing first place in the Southern League during their first year of participation in the Futures League, the Ulsan Whales are finally stepping onto the historic first autumn baseball stage to challenge for their first championship title since founding.
The Ulsan Whales will face the Hanwha Eagles at 6:30 p.m. on the 22nd at Munsu Baseball Stadium in a Futures League Championship Series semifinal match.
On the 21st, one day before the game, the club announced, "We plan to turn this match into more than just a postseason game; it will be completed as 'Ulsan's unique autumn festival' where players, fans, and Ulsan citizens unite in pursuit of victory." The club further added that it will launch an "UlsanPay Special Cashback Promotion" so that the cheers of citizens filling Munsu Baseball Stadium can become a driving force for the players' victory.
According to the club, if the Ulsan Whales win the semifinal match under this promotion, 100% of the payment amount will be fully cashed back via UlsanPay to spectators in the infield designated seats and outfield general seats. Spectators in the central table seats and premium seats will also receive a 5,000 won cashback benefit. However, ticket booking fees are excluded from the cashback eligibility.
To receive the cashback benefit, UlsanPay information must be entered during the Ticketlink booking stage. Detailed booking and promotion information can be confirmed on the Ticketlink booking page.
A variety of entertainment options have also been prepared to boost the excitement at the venue. In addition to special performances by cheerleaders, large flags will be distributed to spectators, turning the entire Munsu Baseball Stadium into a sea of blue cheers.
Ulsan Whales manager Jang Won-jin said, "The cheers of Ulsan citizens filling Munsu Baseball Stadium will become the greatest strength for our players, greater than anything else." He added, "We hope families and friends will come to the stadium together with Ulsan Whales to share in this historic moment of victory and enjoy the autumn festival."
Club owner Kim Cheol-wook, chairman of the Ulsan Metropolitan City Sports Council, stated, "Having secured first place in the Southern League in our inaugural year, we are now looking toward even greater heights together with Ulsan citizens." He further added, "We hope this semifinal match will become more than just a contest; it will be a festival where citizens can laugh, cheer together, and share the joy of victory."
