LG Uplus conducted a special inspection of its communications network at Jamsil Baseball Stadium ahead of the 2026 KBO postseason. LG Uplus announced on the 14th that it had checked the network environment. Jamsil Baseball Stadium is scheduled to begin remodeling after this year ends.
LG Uplus said it carried out the inspection to provide smooth communications services, as this postseason will be the last game held at the current building and demand is expected to rise for the final fall baseball games at Jamsil Baseball Stadium.
Jamsil Baseball Stadium opened in July 1982. It has been in operation for 44 years. This postseason will be the last game held at the current building.
According to KBO data, attendance for last year's postseason at Jamsil Baseball Stadium reached 23,750, with all seats sold out. Last year's average attendance per regular-season game at Jamsil Baseball Stadium was 20,645. Postseason attendance at Jamsil Baseball Stadium last year was about 15% higher than the regular-season average per game.
Total attendance for this year's KBO regular season was tallied at about 12.77 million. Last year's total KBO regular-season attendance was about 12.31 million. This year's total KBO regular-season attendance increased by more than 450,000 from last year.
LG Uplus preemptively carried out a special network inspection using AI in preparation for situations such as the postseason, when rising attendance is expected to drive up data usage. Kwak Jun-young, who oversees the Seoul metropolitan infrastructure for LG Uplus, said average postseason attendance at Jamsil Baseball Stadium was expected to rise by about 15% from the regular season, and data usage was also likely to increase by a similar margin.
Accordingly, LG Uplus optimized antennas inside and outside the stadium on the 13th and also conducted on-site quality measurements that same day. It also applied traffic control and parameter optimization using AI agents.
LG Uplus continues to expand its on-site infrastructure. It has installed about 1.5 times more 5G equipment than in the early days of commercialization, and it periodically replaces antennas to ensure wide and even delivery of internal LTE signals. It is also inspecting and replacing aging Wi-Fi equipment.
LG Uplus plans to deploy additional mobile base stations for major events expected to draw sellout crowds, such as the Korean Series and playoffs. Kwak Jun-young, who oversees the Seoul metropolitan infrastructure for LG Uplus, said the company aims to provide uninterrupted, top-tier call quality even when large crowds gather at the same time.
