TWICE NAYEON and BIBI to throw first pitches for LG Twins this weekend

The situation
TWICE's Nayeon and solo artist BIBI are set to throw the ceremonial first pitches for the LG Twins' home series against the Hanwha Eagles this weekend. Both have done this before, with Nayeon having previously taken the pitch in 2016 and 2018, and BIBI in 2023 and 2025. This event is part of the team's 'Hello Kitty Brand Day' promotion.

What the internet did with it

• Nayeon expressed her enthusiasm, saying "I am delighted to take the ceremonial first pitch at Jamsil Baseball Stadium after a long time. Although the weather is hot, I hope all the players stay safe and deliver a great game. Fighting, LG Twins!"
• BIBI also shared her thoughts, stating "It is an honor to greet you again as the ceremonial first pitcher for the LG Twins. As this is my third ceremonial first pitch, I came to the stadium with even more excitement" — a sentiment that will likely be met with *사이다* (a feeling of satisfaction or refreshment) from her fans.
• The event coincides with the end of TWICE's world tour and the release of BIBI's new song 'BUMPA', making this a notable appearance for both artists.

The open question
The outcome of the games, and how Nayeon and BIBI's pitches will fare, remains to be seen, but more pressing is whether the heat will affect the players' performance, as both Nayeon and BIBI mentioned the hot weather in their statements.
