The real dirt and grass of Jamsil Stadium, where countless baseball fans have built memories over 44 years, will be preserved as special souvenirs.

LG Twins announced on the 28th that they will launch 'Goodbye Jamsil' products in collaboration with Doosan Bears to commemorate their final season at Jamsil Stadium starting on the 29th, and will hold a special joint pop-up exhibition.

The most eye-catching item is merchandise that directly incorporates actual parts of Jamsil Stadium. The 'Goodbye Jamsil Ground Stadium,' co-produced by LG and Doosan, includes a model of the stadium along with real grass from Jamsil Stadium.

The 'Goodbye Jamsil Ground Glass Bottle' contains dirt from the field inside a glass bottle shaped like Lucky, LG's mascot, and a star. This goes beyond simply representing the stadium as a souvenir; it allows fans to personally own a piece of the 44th-year history.

Both 'Goodbye Jamsil Ground Stadium' and 'Goodbye Jamsil Ground Glass Bottle' will be sold at the goods shop starting from 4 p.m. on October 7, the day of LG Twins' final regular-season home game, until limited quantities are exhausted.

Jamsil Stadium opened in July 1982 and has since become a space representing Korean baseball. It hosted international tournaments including the World Baseball Championship and Asian Baseball Championship, and served as a neutral venue for the Korean Series for many years. Most importantly, LG and Doosan created numerous legendary matchups under one roof, establishing themselves as symbols of Seoul baseball.

However, the current Jamsil Stadium will close after the 2026 season. Due to Seoul City's development plan for a Jamsil Sports and MICE complex, the existing stadium will be demolished and is scheduled to be reborn as a 30,000-seat dome stadium in 2032. LG and Doosan plan to use the nearby Seoul Olympic Stadium, renovated into a temporary home field, from 2027 through 2031.

Given this, both LG and Doosan have made significant efforts throughout this season to preserve memories of 'the last Jamsil.' LG evoked past memories of Jamsil through events like Classic Day and fan participation activities, and in July held the final Jamsil All-Star Game under the theme 'RE:Jamsil.'

This commemorative product line is a continuation of that effort. In addition to joint products, LG will also offer uniforms, T-shirts, hats, Jamsil Stadium patches, mufflers, cheering towels, canvas bags, chair keychains, and commemorative balls. Notably, the chair keychain was created by directly measuring actual seating at Jamsil Stadium, followed by 3D modeling to accurately replicate seat proportions and details. The commemorative ball incorporates the blue sky and red sunset of Jamsil Stadium, allowing fans to recall their memories of the stadium anytime, anywhere.

The joint pop-up exhibition between LG and Doosan will run from September 29 to October 7 next to the central ticket office at Jamsil Stadium. On October 7, the day of LG's final regular-season home game, limited quantities of joint products using real grass and dirt will also be sold. The exhibition will not operate on October 2 when no games are scheduled. Additionally, a joint exhibition is planned for the day of Doosan Bears' final home game if it is added to the schedule later.

The 'Goodbye Jamsil' commemorative products will be available for pre-order from September 29 until the day of Doosan Bears' final home game at LG Twins' official apparel shop and goods shop. At the pop-up exhibition, customers can view the products in person and make online reservations via QR codes placed on-site. Purchased items are scheduled to be shipped sequentially by the end of November.
