Jamsil Baseball Stadium into 2025 history...LG and Doosan for 6 years where?

According to the Seoul Metropolitan Government's announcement, the new dome stadium in Jamsil will begin to be built in earnest after the 2025 professional baseball season. Construction will begin in earnest after dismantling the Jamsil Baseball Stadium currently in use. The construction is scheduled to be completed by the end of 2031. It is expected to cost around 500 billion won. The project will be undertaken by Seoul Smart Mys Park, the preferred negotiator who Hanwha is in charge of.

But there is a problem. LG Twins and Doosan Bears, who use Jamsil Baseball Stadium as their home turf for six years to build a new dome stadium, should find a temporary place. However, there is no clear countermeasure against this.

In the meantime, various ideas have come up. The most likely option was to remodel and use Jamsil Main Stadium as a baseball stadium while building a new dome stadium.

However, the Seoul Metropolitan Government said, "It is impossible to use Jamsil Main Stadium." "If the surrounding construction proceeds, almost all roads to the alternative stadium will be blocked, and only about 5 meters of movement toward Bongeunsa Temple on the 9th line will remain, and accidents will be inevitable if crowds come and go there," the Seoul Metropolitan Government explained.

In this regard, KBO, LG, and Doosan demanded to secure a passageway toward Jamsil Sports Complex Station. However, the Seoul Metropolitan Government also rejected this. The Seoul Metropolitan Government said, "Not only is it difficult to create a passage here, but there is a possibility of a delay of nearly a year." 바카라사이트

In the end, LG and Doosan have to search for a third place during this period. It is possible to share the Gocheok Sky Dome currently used by Kiwoom Heroes, but only one team can do that. Mokdong Stadium, which was the home stadium of Kiwoom Heroes before the Gocheok Sky Dome was built, has poor facilities to play professional baseball games. In the past, when professional baseball games were held, nearby residents continued to voice opposition due to lighting and noise problems. Currently, when professional baseball games are not held, it is also tight to play amateur games.

An official from the Seoul Metropolitan Government said, "We considered creating an alternative stadium with 17,000 seats through remodeling at Jamsil Main Stadium, but we judged it impossible based on experts' opinions that if several construction works are carried out at the same time, it is concerned in terms of safety management."

"LG, Doosan, and KBO proposed to divide the construction, but they did not accept it because it was not easy to secure safety and there was an inevitable delay for more than 10 months," he said. "We plan to discuss with KBO and clubs how to share it with existing clubs such as Gocheok Dome, Mokdong Baseball Stadium, Suwon, and Incheon."

However, it is practically difficult for Seoul-based clubs to play home games in Suwon and Incheon. It could seriously hurt the identity of the Seoul-based club. Major damage is inevitable to the team's spectators' income. Above all, baseball fans in Seoul will see the biggest damage. This is why there are criticisms that "Seoul Metropolitan Government does not know too much about the wishes of fans or the reality of the club."

For now, LG and Doosan decided to form a joint task force (TF) team with KBO to respond. A KBO official said, "The two clubs hope to remodel Jamsil Main Stadium and use it as a temporary stadium during the construction period," adding, "We will make efforts to ensure that the plan is carried out."
