The Korean context

What happened

LE SSERAFIM’s Hong Eunchae throws her second ceremonial first pitch, this time for the Chiba Lotte Marines, then joins the team’s mascot and cheerleaders for a “BOOMPALA” dance.

Why Koreans care

The title’s winning claim has a specific payoff: an on-screen caption confirms that the Marines actually won the game after Eunchae’s appearance.

In the Korean comments

One comment extends the lucky-charm joke to absurdity, reading in translation: “I still can’t forget the comment saying that if you want to win, you should tie Eunchae to the foul pole.”

What the words mean

“승리 요정” (seungni yojeong, literally “victory fairy”) is an affectionate, exaggerated nickname for someone treated as a lucky charm because teams win when that person appears. Eunchae uses it about herself after the Marines’ victory, and several comments repeat it or shorten it to “승요” (seungyo, “victory fairy”).
