Jamsil Stadium on the 5th, when the first round of the semi-playoff between the LG Twins and the KT Wiz was held. Naturally, tickets were sold out, and numerous cars were crowded before the game.
Jamsil Stadium is currently undergoing major remodeling, so parking space is very scarce. That's why there's always a parking war. It was full early on this day as well.
The whole area of Jamsil Stadium becomes a traffic hell. So the police came out to control the road. The problem was that the Songpa Police Station's road traffic department controlled more than necessary, causing confusion.
Although it is full, vehicles with essential personnel for baseball games can open some of the roads to enter and exit. This includes emergency vehicles and game management personnel. Jamsil Stadium Management Headquarters, Seoul Sports Facility Management Office, and club officials will be allowed to enter after confirming their identities.
The problem is that the Songpa Police Station police officer blocked the entrance with a police vehicle he drove. Among the ordinary vehicles that cannot enter the full-lane road, they filed a complaint when they saw the related vehicle entering, and blocked the entrance because they received a complaint.
The problem is that the field doctor and LG pitcher Kim Yoon-sik, who came to support his teammates while performing military service, were also unable to enter the stadium. In the stadium, there are ambulances and emergency responders who contract with the home club to carry emergency patients, but they are not doctors. In preparation for possible accidents, KBO dispatches specialists from hospitals that have signed a business agreement. The specialist was blocked from trying to enter his personal car. The game almost started without a field doctor. Who is the field doctor, park your car somewhere else and walk in. The police official is said to have allowed entry just before the game, regardless of the persuasion of LG club and KBO officials. In the process, it is known that he raised his voice with the stadium manager and took an overbearing posture.
According to an official at Jamsil Stadium Management Headquarters, there was a commotion by indiscriminately blocking emergency vehicles from entering and leaving even when the wild card match between KT and Doosan Bears was held on the 3rd. The official said "It is appreciated that we are working hard to deal with road traffic near the stadium, but the police do not have the authority to control vehicle access. Jamsil Stadium parking lot is operated by the Seoul Sports Facility Management Office and Jamsil Stadium Management Headquarters.
