South Korean baseball fans flocked to stadiums on Sunday for the first time this year, happy and excited even as they sat apart from relatives and friends and could not enjoy their usual beer and chicken. The government decided on Friday that some fans can go back, with 10% of seats available at Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) games from Sunday. All fans have to wear masks, have their temperatures checked, provide contact details and socially distance in the stands. "It's sad that we can't enjoy beer and fried chicken but that's understandable and we just hope they'll wrap up the season safely." Kim Song-a, a 27-year-old Bears fan, said she had entered a competition to win one of the 2,424 seats up for grabs.
