Cheongju Baseball Stadium

Cheongju Baseball Stadium, Baseball stadium in Cheongju, South Korea.

Cheongju Baseball Stadium is an open-air ballpark in the Cheongju Sports Complex in Sajik-dong, Seowon-gu, Cheongju, South Korea. Its field has artificial turf, outfield distances of 100 m down the lines and 115 m to center, and a center-field fence 4.3 m high, 5.8 m with the safety netting. Seating was expanded to 10,500 places, and a 24 m by 9 m HD video board stands beyond the outfield.

The stadium opened in May 1979 as an important milestone for baseball infrastructure development in South Korea. Since its opening, it has served as the main venue for regional and professional competitions in the sport.

Cheongju Baseball Stadium hosted Hanwha Eagles games as the club's second home ground from 1986 to 2024, and MBC Cheongryong held spring training here from early March 1983. Each year the stadium stages a tournament between schools in North Chungcheong Province that field baseball teams. The ground is nicknamed "Korea's Coors Field" and "pitchers' graveyard" because its 110 m centre fence yields many home runs.

The stadium sits inside the Cheongju Sports Complex in Sajik-dong, Seowon-gu, with the outfield fence 100 m from home plate and the center field wall 115 m away. Seats are divided into infield and outfield sections, and the third-base side holds the auxiliary scoreboard. The 2013 renovation added a barbecue zone where visitors grill meat while watching the game.

The outfield fence stands 110 m from home plate, among the shortest in the KBO, which earned the park the nicknames "Korea's Coors Field" and "pitchers' graveyard" for the number of home runs hit here. In 2015 the central fence was moved back to 115 m and raised from 2.5 m to 4.3 m, or 5.8 m with the safety net above it.
