The [KIA Tigers](https://www.totoblog.day), a professional baseball team, announced on the 20th that they have achieved the highest attendance record for their 10th home game since the opening.

The KIA club said, “16,889 people attended the home game against NC Dinos held at Gwangju-Kia Champions Field on the 19th, recording a cumulative attendance of 152,414 for the 10 home games since the opening.”

The previous record was in 2014 when [Gwangju-Kia Champions Field](https://matters.town/@19guide03/528787-men-s-table-tennis-defeats-denmark-in-the-quarterfinals-of-the-world-championships-team-event) opened, with 132,154 people visiting the stadium in the 10 games since the opening.

If this trend continues, it is possible to exceed 1 million home spectators for the first time in 7 years since 2017, when 1,024,830 people were gathered. In addition, KIA's new record for the largest home attendance in a single season can also be observed.

In 2017, when [KIA](https://matters.town/@slotplayground/528798-kbo-appoints-ryu-joong-il-as-full-time-head-coach-of-the-national-baseball-team-bafybeidvdz53ts3zuywoof2l6rtvrwsq45buf7bjduvqofxoxbyqkljwuu) attracted the largest number of spectators, it attracted 124,792 people in 10 home games after the opening. This season's record is 27,622 more than the same period.
