Overview
The Hanwha Eagles are a KBO League team based in Daejeon. Their home stadium, Daejeon Hanwha Life Ballpark, opened on March 5, 2025 as the newest ballpark in the KBO, seating about 17,000.
Seating Guide
As a stadium that opened in March 2025, its standout feature is Korean baseball’s first infinity pool seating above the third-base stands (a 15m pool holding up to 40 people, open only through the bottom of the 7th inning). Bringing your own swimsuit and swim cap is required. As a brand-new stadium, detailed section names are still being finalized, so it’s safest to check the official channel at booking time for the current seating chart.
Tickets
Hanwha uses a dynamic pricing system with color grades (Red/Blue/Yellow/Green) that change by game. The same seat can cost different amounts depending on the opponent and day of the week, so always check the grade for your specific game before buying.

Cheering Culture
Hanwha first became known for a cheering song built around a Chungcheong-dialect catchphrase. The current cheer song has been in use since 2016.
When LG fans chant a taunt at the pitcher, Hanwha fans have a signature comeback chant of their own. More recently, a comedic “fly-out song” performed after opponents fly out has become one of the most popular in the league.
