A civil complaint was filed on August 29 against WINNER‘S Lee Seung-hoon is an 18-year-old man. for his ceremonial speech at the Struggle Giants against Hanhwa Eagles baseball game in Busan. The complaint requested that the KBO take appropriate measures to ensure that “inappropriate proposals” never let it happen again.
We strongly urge KBO Commissioner Heo Gu Yeon to immediately send an official communication to all teams to prevent inappropriate throws from interrupting the game.

Previously, on August 28, Lee Seunghoon threw the first pitch in Busan at Sajik Stadium. Busan being his hometown, he shouted: “The winner of the Lotte is here. Let me hear the roar of the Victory Giants! I will give you the winning spirit of the WINNER.”
Then he pretended to throw the ball and danced on the mound for 18 seconds. It also seemed that the performance had not been agreed upon in advance with the catcher. After he threw the ball, it hit home plate and bounced behind the catcher, Son Seong Bin.

Lee Seunghoon’s actions drew criticism because his throw was inappropriate and disrupted the flow of the match.
Korean netizens, while finding his ceremonial speech a bit long, felt that filing a complaint was a bit excessive.
- “I laughed so hard watching this yesterday.”
- “Does this really need to go as far as a complaint? But I don’t think it should ever be considered for launch again.”
- “It’s just hilarious… but filing a complaint is a bit much.”
- “Wow, there are a lot of people who are uncomfortable with this.”
- “I thought it was hilarious, though. Why is everyone so angry?”
- “A complaint about this?”
- “Do people actually file complaints about this…? It’s just talk.”
- “People are so exaggerating… there’s no separate launch time? What do you mean ‘interrupting the flow of the game’?”
- “After watching this at night, I knew something was going to happen about it.”
- “It was really long… it was fun, but I think he was more embarrassed.”
- “Filing a complaint is a bit much… but I remember that Aiki also got a negative response.”
- “It’s a bit long…”
- “The game can start after the launch, so it’s not normal for it to last this long.”
- “Aiki received a lot of hatred because it was winter at the time…”
- “What do you mean, file a complaint? So over the top.”
- “What the hell…”
- “It’s even hilarious that they filed a complaint.”
What do you think?
