(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Kyung-yoon Kim = Manager Dave Roberts of the Major League Baseball (MLB) Los Angeles Dodgers and Mike Shildt, manager of the San Diego Padres, seemed to be culture shocked by the cheering of Korean cheerleaders.

After completing a practice game with the Kiwoom Heroes for the 2024 MLB Seoul Series held at Gocheok Sky Dome in Seoul on the 17th, Coach Roberts answered the first question about his overall review of the game, saying, “The baseball field environment was better than the standards we requested.”

“The cheerleaders cheered hard throughout the game,” he said. “The atmosphere of the game was very good and full of energy.”

Coach Roberts also added, “Korea’s cheering culture did not interfere with the game,” and added, “The cheering led by cheerleaders was refreshing because it is a culture that does not exist in MLB.”

Coach Silt also seemed impressed by the cheerleaders’ support.

Coach Silt, who was about to play a practice game with the Korean national baseball team at 7 p.m. on this day, said in a pre-game interview, “I saw a glimpse of the Dodgers and Kiwoom game from behind the dugout, and I felt a lot of energy,” and “I could feel the cheering even inside the room.”

Ahead of the Seoul Series, MLB selected Kiwoom cheering team company as a cheering agency and prepared for a cheering match, saying it would incorporate Korea’s baseball stadium cheering culture.

The Kiwoom cheering squad cheered from the third base podium like in a KBO League game that day, and the Dodgers cheering squad, made up of domestic cheerleaders and cheerleaders, cheered for the Dodgers players from the first base podium.

The Dodgers cheering team performed a cheering match to the cheering song along with the entrance music every time the players stepped up to the plate.

However, for MLB players who are not used to cheering matches, the amplifier volume was lowered to encourage a positive response from the audience.

The cheerleaders performed spectacular dance moves during each inning shift, drawing the attention of the audience and players.
