SK’s representative cheerleader sings’Coastal Pier’ to say goodbye.

<현장음> “That ship that comes once by chance~ Incheon SK!”

The faces of the players who returned their friendly uniforms crossed over.

<김강민 / SSG 랜더스> “I think it’s the most regrettable that I can’t go to the game wearing this uniform in the future…”

The protagonists and fans who shared their past glory also regretted goodbye to SK.

<김광현 / 세인트루이스 카디널스> “I went through all the joys and sorrows with Wyverns, and I am very sorry…”

<김유현 / 어린이 팬> “Wyverns will be a memory now, but it’s not Shunlin, but Shuklin…”

SK’s traces have been erased and the Shinsegae E-Mart logo has been newly engraved on the squad bus.

As soon as we said goodbye to SK, the new name SSG Landers was revealed.

As Vice Chairman Jeong Yong-jin hinted that’a name that comes to mind when I think of Incheon,’ the connection with Incheon, the place of origin, was considered the top priority.

The explanation is that it expresses the will to “will become a new symbol like Incheon Airport and Incheon Port, and to land a new baseball culture in Incheon.”

KBO’s registration process has also been completed.

The membership fee of SSG, who became a full member, was decided at 6 billion won, and SK, who left, donated 2.5 billion won for the development of Korean baseball.

Coach Won-hyung Kim, who became SSG’s first coach, has made new resolutions.

<김원형 / SSG 랜더스 감독> “Because it’s a new beginning, I’ll play hard again with the mindset of starting again with a new feeling on a new team.”
