Since you said you're going to Ulsan, Changwon City where the fire fell on your feet? Were you worried about baseball? Why were you so bad

Why didn't they move so actively and quickly.
The problem of using the NC Dinos' home stadium is increasing. It's just a pity to think about how Changwon City views NC and baseball.
NC eventually uses a temporary home stadium. NC officially announced on the 8th that it will hold three consecutive games against the Kiwoom Heroes, which will be held from the 16th at Ulsan Munsu Stadium, the Lotte Giants' second home.
A terrible accident happened on March 29. The louver installed at Changwon NC Park suddenly crashed, hitting three fans who visited the scene. Among them, a young female fan who was shocked by her head died, an accident that should not have happened.
There was a memorial period, and the game at NC Park was suspended because of safety concerns. It was a matter of course. It was dangerous to play again in a stadium with hundreds of louvers with similar structures.

This is because it is actually at the level of league disruption. When the NC home game came, KBO and the opposing teams were focused on how to change the game schedule. NC could not play alone, and all the schedules at the end of the season could have been disrupted if it was postponed.
The NC squad was also a problem. I couldn't even say a word out of my mouth that it was difficult because I thought it was 'their responsibility'. However, it was difficult to go home properly and live a wandering life for more than a month. It is a situation where the performance cannot be maintained properly. NC clubs are also suffering enormous losses in terms of entrance, advertising revenue and away game costs.

Then, NC and KBO decided that this should not be the case, and there were talks about alternative home stadiums. On top of that, Ulsan City, which is active in attracting professional baseball games, joined. From NC's point of view, it is actually an away game, but the first thing was that they should not damage other teams by somehow playing their home schedule. That's how the Ulsan home game was confirmed.
So on the 9th, a day later, Changwon City, which had been quiet, issued an emergency notice. The plan was to complete all safety checks by the 18th and make NC Park available.

As it was known that the home game would be held in an area other than Changwon, there must have been a sound of concern in the region. In local politics, professional sports are often viewed as 'Table'. Ahead of next year's local elections, he could not help but worry about the public sentiment caused by the damage around NC Park, which is caused by the relocation of NC's hometown or the temporary relocation of homes.

An official who watched the series said, `Whether it's the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure and Transport or Changwon City, they were just passively doing the 'bomb-spinning' in order not to create a situation where they are ultimately responsible. Then, talking about relocating the home stadium seems to have made him urgent. If it can be solved like this, isn't it enough to play home games in early May?" he lamented.
