Tving’s live variety series "Superfan Zone" spotlights the ride-or-die supporters who pour their hearts into the game, flipping the script so the fans become the stars. Back for Season 2, the show zeroes in on Hanwha Eagles diehards and streams exclusively live on Tving, co-produced by Studio Supa Dupa and Egg Is Coming. Former Eagles slugger Kim Tae-kyun and celebrity superfan In Gyo-jin anchor the panel, cranking up the cheers as the team chases glory.
Episode 4 airs live tonight from Hanwha Life Eagles Park in Daejeon, with the "Superfan Zone" crew rallying in real time for the Hanwha Eagles vs. Lotte Giants matchup. Joining as special guests are Uie and Yoon Jong-hoon, both with deep ties to the club.
Uie comes from an Eagles family: her father, Kim Sung-gap, oversees the team’s reserve squad as a coach. During the Season 2 premiere, cameras caught Uie cheering at the ballpark on the jumbotron, sparking buzz online. Fans are eager to see what kind of game-day energy she brings to the live show.
Yoon Jong-hoon, a Daejeon native, has rooted for Hanwha since he was a kid, influenced by his parents. A former member of the old Binggrae Eagles children’s club, he still cheers passionately to this day. When he threw out the first pitch at Hanwha’s 2021 home opener, the team won 7-0―earning him “good-luck charm” status. With his strong in-person win rate, viewers are watching to see if the streak continues.
With the Eagles leading the first half for the first time since 1992 and clinching their first postseason berth in seven years, this miracle season has fans dreaming big. "Superfan Zone 2" captures that passion live as supporters rally behind a potential title run.
The fan-first sports variety show "Superfan Zone 2" streams live on Tving tonight at 6 p.m. KST.
