ATEEZ member Woo Young will appear as a special first-pitch thrower at Sajik Stadium in Busan on August 30 for an LG Twins versus Lotte Giants home game. As an avid Lotte Giants fan, this marks Woo Young's second appearance on the Sajik Stadium mound, expressing his excitement to "convey good energy to the players and cheer them on enthusiastically." Last year in 2024, he made his debut first pitch attempt at a Lotte Giants versus Samsung Lions game at Sajik Stadium, delivering a perfect pitch that earned him recognition as a 'victory angel' among fans. In March, he also appeared as the first-pitch thrower at the Tokyo Dome for the 2026 World Baseball Classic first-round final match against Australia, captivating global audiences. Currently, ATEEZ is gaining popularity with their mini 14th album title track 'BAD (BAD)', and recently viral videos of baseball players dancing to the song have demonstrated the group's influence extending into the sports world.
