[Dispatch=Reporter Lee Myung-ju] Hong Eunchae of LE SSERAFIM is visiting a Japanese professional baseball stadium.

Source Music announced on the 22nd, "Hong Eunchae will appear as a special guest for the Chiba Lotte Marines' summer festival 'BLACK SUMMER WEEK.'"

Hong Eunchae will attend a game between the Chiba Lotte Marines and Saitama Seibu Lions held on the 5th of next month at Zozo Marine Stadium. She will throw the ceremonial first pitch for the home team.

She will lend her support to the events as part of this 'BLACK SUMMER WEEK.' In addition to the first pitch, she plans to participate in events held during the game and create unforgettable memories with fans.

She said, "I'm honored to throw the first pitch in Japan for the first time," and added, "I hope it will be a time to deliver bright energy and joy to those who visited the stadium."

This was the first time a foreign female group's debut album reached number one on major charts in approximately 5 years and 3 months. LE SSERAFIM also became the first K-pop girl group to receive the Japan Record Awards' "Special International Music Award."

Meanwhile, LE SSERAFIM is currently in progress with their second world tour "2026 LE SSERAFIM TOUR - PUREFLOW." They will continue performances in Osaka on the 25th.
