Korean actress Chae Won-bin recently lit up the Jamsil Baseball Stadium with her first-ever ceremonial pitch during a thrilling regular-season game between the Doosan Bears and NC Dinos on the 10th. Although her throw was full of spirit and style, the Doosan Bears couldn’t clinch the victory, ending the game with a score of 11-5 in favor of the NC Dinos.

Showing up in a sporty yet stylish look, Chae received enthusiastic cheers from the stadium crowd. Her poised pitching form and bright smile helped energize the audience before kickoff. Even after completing her pitch, she remained in the stands until the bottom of the ninth inning, immersing herself in the electrifying sights and sounds of the baseball game.

Chae Won-bin is enjoying a stellar breakout year. She recently took home the ‘Best New Actress’ award at the 2024 MBC Drama Awards for her role as Jang Ha-bin in the melodrama 이토록 친밀한 배신자. Further cementing her standing in the industry, she also claimed the ‘Best New Actress in TV’ prize at the 61st Baeksang Arts Awards.

While she may not have brought victory luck to the Bears, her presence certainly stole the show and left a memorable impression on fans both at the stadium and online.
