On the 29th, the domestic OTT platform Tving revealed the cast for its new service "Let's Watch Together?" - "Fandom Relay" for KBO League games during the first weekend of August.
"Fandom Relay" is a baseball content where a host representing each team participates in major KBO League games to deliver real-time cheering and commentary. Every weekend, it engages with users in real-time through "Tving Talk," enhancing immersion.
The third broadcast, taking place on the 2nd of next month, will focus on two games between LG and Samsung, and Lotte and Kiwoom. In the LG Twins game, In Ho-jin, the leader of the group Sweet Sorrow known for three consecutive appearances, will join, while comedian Kim Dae-sung will participate in the Samsung game.
