The Korea Baseball Organization said 99,905 fans attended games across five stadiums on the 25th, pushing season attendance to 2,094,481.
Four parks sold out: Jamsil (23,750), Gwangju-Kia Champions Field (20,500), Gocheok Sky Dome (16,000) and Daejeon Hanwha Life Ballpark (17,000). Incheon SSG Landers Field, with a capacity of 23,000, drew 22,655, just short of a sellout.
The league reached 2 million in 117 regular-season games, breaking last year’s record of 118 games for the same milestone.
The KBO has been drawing strongly since opening day. On the 10th, it topped 1 million fans in 55 games, beating the previous record set in 2025 (60 games).
Average attendance this season stands at 17,902 per game, up 7.9% from 16,596 at the same point last year.
After setting an all-time record of 12,312,519 total fans last year, the KBO is running ahead of that pace again, fueling expectations of topping 10 million for a third straight year.
