The NC Dinos will play three consecutive games against the Lotte Giants from the 11th to the 13th at Sajik Stadium in Busan, not Changwon NC Park.
Currently, Changwon NC Park is undergoing a comprehensive safety diagnosis due to a spectator death accident, so the game cannot be played.
As it is a matter of facility management, the primary responsibility lies with Changwon City. However, it is NC's choice to play a home game in Busan without postponing it. NC chose to play possible games rather than keep delaying the regular season amid the prolonged safety diagnosis. However, due to the nature of Jamsil Stadium, where games are held all year round, the three consecutive games in Changwon were postponed from the 15th to the 17th.

First of all, in the case of tickets, Busan Sajik Stadium has its own style, such as the type and location of the auditorium, and it is very different from Changwon NC Park. Therefore, NC fans were forced to make reservations using Lotte's reservation system (the official app of Lotte Giants). Although Changwon is close, considering the size of the fandom, ease of reservation, and residence of major fans, NC is expected to play in an atmosphere no different from the away game in Busan.
In addition, NC is said to be changing to a home, but NC is in the position of 'guest' who asked Lotte for understanding. Considering practical circumstances such as the players' goods and other facilities, Lotte will use the home dugout on the first base and NC will use the away dugout on the third base. As a result, the cheering squad and the fans' cheering seats remain the same.
NC will take 72% of the entrance spectators' profits in accordance with the NC Home rule, and Lotte will be given only 28%.

NC's changes are part of the stadium's operation, including LED billboards on the back of the catcher and videos exposed to electronic boards. This is also not directly managed by the NC club, but is in the form of asking Lotte for management personnel.
Lotte explained that it will provide as much convenience as possible after consulting with the NC club. The NC club also "Sad things have happened, and the league should be normalized." There is nothing we can do about what our team has to bear. Above all, I will do my best to avoid any inconvenience to baseball fans" he explained.
