Former KIA Tigers manager Seo Jeong-hwan will establish a baseball town in Jindo-gun under his name.

Jindo-gun, Jeollanam-do, and Jindo Seo Jeong-hwan Baseball Town (CEO Seo Jeong-hwan) signed a memorandum of understanding (MOU) to create a baseball field for professional and amateur baseball teams to hold winter and summer training sessions and national tournaments on the second floor of the Jindo County Office on the 2nd.

Through this business agreement, Jindo-gun and Jindo Seo Jeong-hwan Baseball Town will closely cooperate and mutually cooperate to develop together, such as holding field training and various baseball tournaments.

Jindo Seo Jeong-hwan Baseball Town will invest KRW 41 billion to build four international standard baseball fields in a part of Jindo Arirang Tourist Complex (117,033㎡) located in Sangman-ri, Imhoe-myeon, Jindo-gun, to revitalize the sport of baseball.

In particular, natural and artificial turf fields (two each), hotels (150 rooms), town villages (60 buildings), indoor practice fields, saunas, and glamping grounds are being prepared with the goal of completing the project in May 2026.

In addition, we plan to conduct business discussions with the Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) and the Korea Baseball Softball Association (KBSA) to create infrastructure to build a top-notch baseball belt in the country.

When Jindo Baseball Town is built, it will be used as a practice field for students and enthusiasts, a venue for the National Baseball Championship for athletes and society on 토토사이트 weekends, and a training ground for baseball teams in winter and summer.

“My dream is to make Jindo-gun, a baseball barren area, a center (mecca) for fostering baseball dreamers as more and more school baseball teams are disappearing,” Seo said.

Jindo-gun Mayor Kim Hee-soo said, “Through the Jindo Seo Jeong-hwan Baseball Town, we expect a large economic ripple effect, such as revitalizing the local economy by attracting domestic baseball teams for winter and summer training and possibly for national team training camps.”

“We will do our best to create a baseball field and expand the base of baseball development so that Jindo County can become a baseball center (mecca),” he added.
