@cha eunwoo. Getting to meet the fans after certain games, were one of Chris’ favorite things about his work. It gave the extroverted male an excuse to meet other people who had shared some of the same passion that he did. It was natural for him to take his time allotted to him, and use it well to get to know each fan on a better level. Attempting to leave everyone satisfied with their short time together one on one like this.

For Chris, he knew that the meet and greets were more than just the team though, it was also a chance for the fans to mingle amongst each other in a shared interest. If Chris wasn’t busy, it was easy for him to get caught up in chatting with the fans.

“Hi.” Chris watched as the next fan approached him, and saw the nervousness in him immediately. He gave a warm smile in hopes of getting the other to relax a bit. “Thanks! They sure helped us win the game.” He chuckled a bit offering his hand out for the other to shake. “What’s your name?”

@christopher bang. it had been a stellar game. bottom of the 9th inning, with his favorite pitcher trying to close it out. the lg twins were only ahead by a single home run, and the next batter up on home plate was park; a powerful hitter with a .276 batting percentage. eunwoo had watched in the stands, on the edge of his seat, silently pleading that his team would manage to clinch out a consecutive win. no less than when the final pitch was thrown and caught, the stadium erupted into loud cheers. right away, eunwoo had stood up, clapping proudly. it had been an amazing sight and experience.

the thrilling momentum didn't end just at the game however, as he was one of the fans lucky and fortunate enough to go to a post-game fan-meet. now that the team had won, it was truly going to be an atmosphere. following the event coordinator and security guards, eunwoo was guided down the infamous hall, /the hall/, where legendary names in the kbo had walked out from... he was literally walking in the path of chris bang.

arriving to the room, eunwoo let out a long, drawn out exhale of awe. off to the sides, there was a buffet of food, hors d'oeuvres, beer, an open bar with bartenders. there was also a small pop-up merch stand, selling apparel and all sorts of team branded goods, as well as memorabilia that eunwoo had never seen before. but the best was the players themselves. on a long table atop of a podium at the front, sat the entire lg twins roster. eunwoo didn't walk with hesitancy. he made a beeline for the forming line to meet and greet the players. reaching into the waist pack that was slung across his chest, eunwoo got into line, with his baseball and deck of sports cards in hand.

he respectfully greeted and complimented every player for a play they had made in the game, remembering every detail. for each and every player, he handed them their the respective baseball card, for them to sign. then, it was finally the moment. eunwoo reached the closer, the pitcher, chris bang. "hello." he croaked out. "your 4-seam fastballs were a killer today." eunwoo nervously stated to his sports idol.

@cha eunwoo. The evening had fell upon the city quicker than Chris had realized. His day had been pretty busy, as most days with games the baseball player was booked from the time he opens his eyes to the end of the day, and today was no different. The day had started off with warm ups, pre interviews for the games, outings with the team and then of course, the game. It had been a close call, but with Chris' skill and the catchers directions he had been able to strike out the last batter on the last inning of the game. Roars from the crowd had erupted through out the stadium once the ball had landed in the catchers glove.

A successful game had meant that the team was in high spirits and when the team had went back to the locker room, there had been talks of going out for drinks that night, after they had been completely finished with their schedules. Chris had been one of the teammates that had signed up for meeting the fans, it was something he always did, it was a way of making connections and getting to know the people who enjoyed the game just as much as he did. Taking a quick shower and getting dressed in his regular clothes for the day, it wasn't long before he had been brought to the place of the event.

It was only a few fans each time one of these events had been held, and for the team it was easier that way. It had felt more personal and allowed the team and the fans more interaction time. When he and his few team members had entered the room, Chris immediately began bowing to his fans going up to each one to greet them, a bright and warm smile on his face as he shook their hands.
