It was the night of the 5th that four NC players had a drink in a hotel room with an outside woman, A, who was infected with Corona 19.



However, on the night of the 4th the day before, it was newly revealed that Mr. A had gathered with players from other clubs.



On the night of the 4th, two women, including Mr. A, met in Mr. A's room with a retired baseball player and two Hanwha players who were staying at the hotel at the time.



The players claimed it was a brief meeting of about 20 minutes.



After the Hanwha players left the room, two Kiwoom players who finished the game in Suwon visited Mr. A's room.



According to the Kiwoom club, players had drinks until late in the morning.



Contrary to the suspicions raised by some, Mr. A was known as a general female fan, but with the spread of Corona 19 and the extremely limited contact with the fans, it became difficult for players who met with fans in the away dormitory to avoid criticism.



One Kiwoom athlete who attended this drinking party was finally selected as the Olympic representative, and one Hanwha athlete was included in the Olympic preliminary entry and received the vaccine.



Gangnam-gu Office is conducting an epidemiological investigation to see if there was a violation of quarantine rules at the drinking party, and Kiwoom and Hanwha clubs issued apologies in the name of the club.



Previously, four NC players who caused the league suspension due to the corona virus were sentenced to 72 games suspension and a fine of 10 million won under the KBO reward and punishment committee.



NC issued an apology in the name of owner Kim Taek-jin, and CEO Hwang Soon-hyun resigned.



The criticism from fans has reached its climax due to the scandal of baseball players' consecutive drinking parties.
