Professional football club Seoul E-Land FC, competing in K League 2, has swiftly opened "Online Reul Park," a metaverse space that is the first in the league to recreate an actual home stadium in 3D.

According to Seoul E-Land, "Online Reul Park" was established as part of the "One Team Seoul (ONE TEAM, SEOUL)" campaign, which wishes for the club's promotion to the top division.

Notably, the club's office directly planned and produced it using artificial intelligence (AI). Rather than being a simple virtual space, it recreates a 3D stadium based on the actual seating layout of Mokdong Stadium, allowing fans to select and sit in the same sections, rows, and seat numbers as in reality.

Anyone can access it for free via a link alone, without needing to install a separate app or sign up. After entering, users can select one of the 34th players on this season's roster, generating an avatar equipped with that player's uniform and jersey number. Users can sit down and cheer using clappers or mufflers, and when the total cumulative number of cheers reaches stage-specific targets, prizes are awarded through a lottery. On low-spec devices, it automatically switches to a flat map to enhance accessibility.

Various unique content features have also been added. Clicking on the "Goal Map" on the ground allows users to review the shooting trajectories and goal videos of the 57th goals recorded by Seoul E-Land this season. An event called "Find Jo A-lam!" is also being held, where users search for the character of reporter Jo A-lam hidden in random seats daily and verify it on Instagram.

A Seoul E-Land official stated, "We planned a space where fans can gather and cheer without constraints of time or place during the final stretch of a season with fierce promotion competition," adding, "We hope that the cheers gathered online will become a great source of strength for the players."
