Go straight up the alley to the right of Daehanseorim. There is an old batting ground at the Hongyemun three-way intersection when you go up this road, and the painting of Park Chan-ho of hitting in a pitching posture is known among baseball fans as a famous thing. At that time, there were old theaters such as Aegwan Theater and Mirim Theater near Dongincheon, so there were many artists who painted old-style movie panels. One of the artists was commissioned for a batting room panel, and he painted the pitching posture of Park Chan-ho, who was at the peak of popularity at the time, but the batting room owner said he wanted a picture of the batter.
