Last year, outdoor club MC Eom Ji-yoon vividly conveyed the excitement of KBO's 10 stadiums to homes and shared her thoughts on joining season 2 of 'Baseball Representative: League of Fans.'
'Baseball Representative: League of Fans' season 2 (hereinafter 'Baseball Representative 2'), directed by Go Dong-wan, will premiere on the 30th as a Tving original program. In this show, 10 representatives will delve into each team's players, stadiums, and cultures, engaging in lively discussions on behalf of baseball enthusiasts.
Previously, Eom Ji-yoon, known in the entertainment industry as a 'baseball novice' (an abbreviation for someone who doesn't know baseball), transformed into a 'baseball intermediate' (someone with moderate knowledge of baseball) through her participation in last season's 'Baseball Representative: League of Fans,' bringing pride to her fans. Encouraged by this, she has joined season 2, announcing her plans to explore all 10 teams and have an enriching experience.
Eom Ji-yoon first confessed, "I feel happy and a sense of responsibility because I think I've become a true baseball person. It's great that I can enjoy baseball more deeply than before" about her appearance in season 2. Especially since she expressed a desire to become a 'quasi-expert' in baseball last season, she stated her goal for this season is to grow to the extent that beginners can ask her about baseball and she can answer most questions.
In addition, during last season, Eom Ji-yoon became known as the 'official victory fairy' of 'Baseball Representative: League of Fans' as her cheering led every team she supported to victory. Many baseball fans were eagerly waiting for her visits. Regarding the secret to leading her teams to victory, Eom Ji-yoon said, "If I cheer sincerely and approach the teams with affection for the clubs I visit, the chances of winning increase," while also showing humility by adding, "But sometimes it doesn't work out."
This season, Eom Ji-yoon will tour the stadiums of all 10 teams, scrutinizing the internal workings of the clubs. She will experience various aspects of team operations as a club employee. Among these, she expressed curiosity about the manager role that checks players' schedules, raising anticipation for whether her wish will come true.
Meanwhile, the studio of 'Baseball Representative 2' will feature KIA Tigers' Youn Seok-min, Samsung Lions' Woody, LG Twins' Yoon Park, Doosan Bears' Yoo Hee-kwan, KT Wiz's Ha Seung-jin, SSG Landers' Ji Sang-ryeol, Lotte Giants' Lee Dae-ho, Hanwha Eagles' Magic Park, NC Dinos' Kim Dong-ha, and Kiwoom Heroes' Shin Jae-young. Eom Ji-yoon has caught attention by choosing Yoo Hee-kwan and Kim Dong-ha as the representatives she wants to tour the clubs with.
Eom Ji-yoon added, "Since we have a good relationship, it feels like going to a baseball game with a close older brother." Curiousity is growing about how Eom Ji-yoon and the representatives' performances will blend into the program.
Finally, Eom Ji-yoon pointed out that 'Baseball Representative: League of Fans' season 2's highlight will be the chaotic experiences of the 'baseball intermediate' participants. She urged viewers to look forward to seeing the 'baseball novice' who simply watches games but instead dives deep into areas they are unfamiliar with, promising ongoing growth that draws attention.
Tving's original entertainment show 'Baseball Representative 2' will present the charm and fun of baseball, along with empathy to everyone from 'baseball novices' to 'true baseball enthusiasts.' The show is set to officially premiere on the 30th (Sunday).
