Stars will once again shine at Seoul Jamsil Baseball Stadium, which has hosted countless memorable games in Korean baseball over the past 45 years. A total of 58 legends, ranging from stars of the inaugural professional baseball season to those who recently played as active players, will gather for a special final showdown at Jamsil before its demolition.

The Ilgu Association, a non-profit corporation, announced on the 22nd the full roster of participants for "Jamsil The Last Inning by Renault," scheduled to be held at Jamsil Baseball Stadium at 2 p.m. on November 14.

Since opening in 1982, Jamsil Baseball Stadium has served as the home ground for the LG Twins and Doosan Bears, sharing the history of Korean professional baseball. Following the conclusion of the KBO League's official games at the current stadium with the third game of the LG vs. KIA Tigers wild card series on the 20th, the existing stadium is set to be demolished and reborn as a new dome stadium.

Numerous legends of professional baseball will share the final stage together. A total of 58 players will be divided into the East Army and West Army to compete in a seven-inning match. Players who represented Korean baseball, transcending eras and team affiliations, will reunite in a single game.

The East Army features Park Chul-soon, Lee Man-soo, Lee Seung-yeop, Lee Dae-ho, Kim Dong-joo, Oh Seung-hwan, Jung Geun-woo, Kim Gang-min, and Dustin Nippert, along with Kim Gwang-su, Kim Sang-jin, Kim Si-jin, Kim Jae-ho, Ryu Chung-nil, Park Kyung-wan, Park No-jun, Park Jeong-tae, Bae Young-soo, Song Seung-jun, Shin Gyeong-sik, Yoo Hee-gwan, Yoon Dong-kyun, Yoon Hak-gil, Lee Jin-young, Lee Taek-geun, Jang Won-jin, Jeon Jun-ho, Jung Dae-hyun, and Jung Sung-hoon. The East Army will use the third-base dugout.

The West Army, which will use the first-base dugout, is also filled with prominent names. Lee Jong-beom, Park Yong-taek, Kim Tae-gyun, Park Byung-ho, Ku Dae-sung, Song Jin-woo, and Jang Jong-hoon will take the field, along with Kim Sung-han, Kim Dong-soo, Kim Bong-yeon, Kim Seong-rae, Kim Yong-hee, Kim Jae-bak, Park Myeong-hwan, Son Si-heon, Shin Myung-cheol, Yoon Seok-min, Lee Dong-hyun, Lee Byung-gyu, Lee Sun-hee, Lee Soon-cheol, Lee Hae-chang, Jang Seong-ho, Jang Won-sam, Jung Sam-geum, Jung Woo-ram, Jo Gye-hyun, Jo In-seong, and Han Yong-deok.

It is not just a game. A ground tour allowing fans to directly walk around the Jamsil stadium field and fan signing sessions with legendary players will be held before the match. Participants for both programs will be selected through pre-registration, and the schedule and application methods will be announced later via official channels.

Special tickets have also been prepared for long-time Jamsil fans. Reproducing the admission ticket price from when the stadium opened, some outfield seats will be operated as the "Renault Zone" and sold for just 3,000 won. This allows fans to relive memories from the 1982 opening while witnessing the final baseball games at Jamsil firsthand.

Tickets will be exclusively sold on Ticketlink starting at 2 p.m. on November 2. Details such as seat prices, reservation methods, and discounts can be checked on the reservation detail page.

The game will be broadcast live on KBS and Naver Chizik. Fans who cannot attend in person will also be able to watch the seven-inning showdown between the legends.

If it is difficult to proceed with the game normally on the 14th due to rain, the event will be postponed to the following day, the 15th. Detailed information regarding rain will be provided through the official homepage and official Instagram.

Jamsil Baseball Stadium, which has shared the joys and sorrows of Korean baseball since 1982, is now facing demolition. Although the final games of the regular season and postseason have concluded, 58 legends who illuminated Korean baseball will once again take the field to adorn the final page of Jamsil.
