Amid the controversy over the aluminum louver at Changwon NC Park that caused the accident, it is pointed out that similar structures are installed in parking lots outside the ballpark, which also needs to be inspected.
The Masan Baseball Center in Yangdeok-dong, Masanhoewon-gu, Changwon-si, Gyeongsangnam-do, where Changwon NC Park belongs, has a total of 1,685 parking lots. Among them, there is a four-story steel parking lot next to the first base of Changwon NC Park.바카라사이트
Dozens of blue exterior structures were installed on the second to fourth floors of the parking lot, which was visited by Star News on Wednesday. A total of 82 were placed, including 67 toward Masan Baseball Stadium, the second-tier NC Dinosaurs, and 15 toward artificial turf fields. The vehicles were placed in the same form as aluminum louvers at Changwon NC Park, which has been under controversy recently.
If it falls, it could cause a more dizzying situation. There is a sidewalk right next to the parking lot, and considering the length of the louver, which is about 5 meters, it seemed that a louver could hit a roadway. The length of the outer wall louver of a baseball stadium that caused the accident was 2.6 meters.
The parking lot was opened together when Changwon NC Park was completed in 2019. However, unlike the baseball stadium entrusted by the NC Dinos team under the contract, the steel-frame parking lot is not managed by the baseball team. The parking fee is received from the Changwon Facilities Corporation, and the regular monthly parking application form along with the "Ordinance on Management and Operation of Parking Lots Affiliated to Masan Baseball Center in Changwon City" also says "Mayor Changwon."
An official told Star News, "The steel-frame parking lot will be closed on the day the game is held. However, it is said that the extension cannot be made because it is not managed by the club." Therefore, the steel-frame parking lot was excluded from the NC club's safety inspection, which has been underway since the previous day.
NC is currently cautious about the matter because responding to bereaved families and injured people is a priority. An official from Changwon Facilities Corporation said, "Parking lots are also subject to the team's management" when asked by Star News, but soon changed his position and said, "It is difficult to answer (whether they are subject to management) because the person in charge is investigating the police reference."
If the steel-frame parking lot is subject to the management of Changwon City or the Facilities Corporation, but the inspection has not been conducted so far, a safety inspection is needed as soon as possible. It was installed similarly at the same time, but there is no law that only the parking lot louver will be safe.
Earlier, at Changwon NC Park, where the NC Dinos and LG Twins played on the 29th of last month, a structure (aluminum louver) fixed to the outer wall above the store on the third base fell at around 5:20 p.m. and bounced off the store's ceiling. As a result, three spectators, including a 20-year-old A and a teenage B sister, were injured in front of the store.
They were immediately taken to a hospital, and A and B, who suffered a serious head injury, received treatment. However, A, who underwent surgery, died on the 31st. B is also said to be continuing treatment.
While the NC club completed a full inspection of 230 internal and external louvers (213, external and 17 internal) over two days from the 1st to the 2nd, memorial wreaths sent by fans arrived outside Changwon NC Park one by one. In particular, there were several wreaths with bands urging Changwon City and the facility corporation to take responsibility. Some fans held truck protests at baseball centers, major stadiums, Changwon City Hall, and Changwon Facilities Corporation, where KBO moved in.
