Actress Kim So-yeon Becomes 'Victory Fairy' and 'Championship Fairy' with LG Twins' Victory

Actress Kim So-yeon has become both a 'Victory Fairy' and a 'Championship Fairy' following the LG Twins' KBO Series win, celebrating the team's momentous triumph.

Kim So-yeon, a well-known longtime fan of the LG Twins, was invited to throw the ceremonial first pitch for Game 2 of the Korean Series on October 27th. The game saw the LG Twins secure a decisive 13-5 victory against the Hanwha Eagles.

Her dedication to the team, which dates back to its former name, MBC Dragons, is widely recognized. During her appearance on the MBC virtual reality show 'We Got Married,' she even packed LG Twins baseball apparel as part of her essential belongings, drawing a playful remark from her on-screen husband, Kwak Si-yang, who was a fan of a rival team.

After her first ceremonial pitch in 2007, which resulted in a 6-6 tie, Kim So-yeon returned to the mound this year. This time, her presence coincided with a victory, solidifying her status as a 'Victory Fairy.'

Reflecting on her experience, Kim So-yeon shared, "Standing on the mound, everything went black, and I was very nervous. But I truly felt how our players overcome such pressure every moment to give us this great gift."

Further expressing her joy at the 'double celebration,' Kim So-yeon added, "I will remember the sweat and tears of our players. I sincerely thank the manager, coaches, and our fans. Thank you for gifting us such a beautiful and romantic autumn once again. Invincible LG is truly invincible!♥"

Netizens reacted enthusiastically, commenting, "It's true that we won thanks to Kim So-yeon's pitch!" and "Victory Fairy confirmed! Thanks to the actress, we're even happier." Fans also cheered, "Let's go LG champions! Congratulations, actress Kim So-yeon!"
