"I will invite 1,000 fans to Everland."

The Samsung Lions championship promise made by Kang Min-ho (41) is becoming reality. In addition to the original 1,000, another 1,000 fans will be invited, bringing the total to 2,000 supporters who are set to share a special time with the team.

The Samsung Lions announced on the 12th, "To commemorate our 2026 Korean Series championship, we will hold a special celebration event with fans at Everland on the 17th."

This event was organized as part of the Korean Series championship promise to share the joy of victory with fans and express gratitude to those who provided passionate support throughout the season.

At last year's KBO opening media day, Kang Min-ho stated, "Everland is the best amusement park in South Korea," adding, "I will invite 1,000 fans. I have already made a promise with the president."

The spark of the "Everland promise," which was canceled after last year's playoff elimination, was directly rekindled by Kang Min-ho at this season's media day. He declared, "I will make Everland my promise once again," and on the 9th, the day after achieving the Korean Series title, he posted the message "Let's go to Everland" on his social networking service (SNS), heightening expectations for fulfilling the pledge.

The scale has grown even larger. A total of 2,000 people are expected to participate in this event, comprising the 1,000 fans promised by the Samsung Lions as part of their championship pledge and an additional 1,000 fans recruited through Everland. Among them, 26 members of the Samsung Lions roster will join the selected 1,000 fans for an official championship celebration event to share a special time together.

The team will depart for Everland on the morning of the 17th. Upon arrival, the players will hold a commemorative parade in the afternoon before hosting a special event with 1,000 fans at the Four Seasons Garden. A celebratory performance by singer Woody, a devoted Samsung Lions fan, is also scheduled.

Subsequently, the players and fans will be divided into groups to enjoy various attractions at Everland. An event where players and fans buy snacks together has also been prepared. Finally, the celebration is planned to conclude with a viewing of Everland's spectacular fireworks display.

Notably, a photo zone featuring the 2026 Korean Series championship trophy will be operated at the venue on that day. It is expected that fans will be able to capture photos with the actual championship trophy, preserving the moment of victory as a special memory.

This Everland championship celebration event was planned to share the emotion of victory with fans once again. Fans who wish to participate can apply through the Everland mobile app by 4 p.m. on the 13th. A total of 1,000 people will be selected by lottery from among the applicants, and up to 2,000 people, including one accompanying person each, will be invited to Everland for free on the day of the event. The Samsung Lions plan to continue providing various opportunities for communication with fans in the future.
