"What day is it today for baseball players?"

On the afternoon of the 5th, a huge crowd gathered at gate B of the arrival hall at Incheon International Airport. Three professional baseball teams, KIA LG SSG, returned home on the same plane. A passerby, who is presumed not to be a baseball fan, looked at the baseball players with a curious look, asking what day it is.

The 10 KBO League teams will complete off-season training in Okinawa, Miyazaki, and Taiwan, Japan, and enter Incheon Airport sequentially from the 4th to the 6th.




Hanwha and Doosan stepped on Korean soil on the 4th. NC and Kiwoom returned on the morning of the 5th after tempering in Taiwan. After lunch, Samsung and Lotte followed.

The highlight was KIA LG SSG. The three teams used the same flight from Okinawa's Naha Airport.

Officials from the three clubs, fans, and media trying to cover the scenery of their return home gathered. Curious about what happened, even citizens gathered at Gate B.




Some club officials were busy using flights arriving first to control the situation on the ground in advance.
