Local reactions to NC and Samsung's opening match that were broadcast live in the United States yesterday were beyond imagination.
Victory Team NC ranked 4th in the Twitter real-time trend across the United States, and the NC team Twitter sent a cheering message from US fans saying, "I will cheer for NC."
NC was a forerunner of North Carolina, and a population of 10 million North Carolina residents came to support NC.
[Lee Yun-bin / NC Dinos Media Public Relations Team Manager: Because there are so many NC fans, I didn't understand at first. (By the way, I was happy to find that connection and find a common denominator and cheer us on.)
[(It's a bat flip.) This is the first 'bat flip' this year!]
KBO League's unique hot 'throw throw' NC Mo Chang-min also made his name known.
[Mo Chang Min / NC Infielder: I didn't know it would be such a big topic. Naturally, it's (Bat Flip), so I hope it will come out (forward).]
The dynamic movement of Korean referees also became a topic.
[Lee Young-Jae / KBO Judge: I went out like this all over the world, but once again, I felt like I needed to keep my mind on it.]
The spectator seats were empty, but Korean professional baseball started with a strong international interest.
