Souvenir sales set a new record of 200 million won per day, online shop server was down, and 1,000 fans had a fan signing event
Hanwha Eagles right-hander Moon Dong-ju (20) received KRW 200 million in sales on the first day of pre-order. It is said that it is the highest sales record per day as a commemorative product released by Hanwha Club.
In addition, Hanwha Eagles' online shop was paralyzed for more than an hour as more than 10,000 buyers gathered shortly after the opening on the 29th.
His skills and popularity are the best.
Moon Dong-ju wore a Hanwha uniform as a first-round pick of the 2022 rookie draft. In his second year as a professional, he pitched in 23 games this season with eight wins and eight losses and a 3.72 ERA. As a Hanwha player, he became the Rookie of the Year for the first time in 17 years since Ryu Hyun-jin in 2006.
He became the first Korean player to throw a 160-km/h fastball in an away game against the KIA Tigers in Gwangju last April.
Moon Dong-ju played as a main pitcher for the Hangzhou Asian Games and the Asian Professional Baseball Championship (APBC) national team. Beyond Hanwha, he confirmed that it is the future of Korean baseball.
Moon Dong-ju's Rookie of the Year commemorative product consists of five items: uniforms, memorabilia, medals, rings, and photo cards that Moon Dong-ju participated in the design.
More than 1,000 fans and citizens gathered at the Moon Dong-ju fan signing event held at Hanwha Galleria Time World in Daejeon on the 29th. On the first floor of Time World, there is a commemorative product exhibition section decorated with the concept of "Prince of Daejeon's Room." It is open until the 5th.
