Gocheok Sky Dome(고척 스카이돔) is Korea's first domed baseball stadium located in Gocheok-dong, Seoul. The stadium replaced Dongdaemun Baseball Stadium(동대문 야구장) and opened on 15 September 2015. It has a capacity of about 20,000 people and is home to the Nexen Heroes(넥센 히어로즈) baseball team. When the professional baseball season is over, the stadium can be hired as a concert venue and other events with capacity for around 22,000 spectators. 
Last week I went to the new Sky Dome to sketch several times .Though the stadium was relatively small compared to other countries' ones, I was impressed by the futuristic exterior and the fantastic atmosphere.  I enjoyed the baseball game sketching some dynamic and colorful scenes in and out the stadium. It was very pleasant and exciting sketch time without worrying about weather conditions.

Fans were waiting to see off their players (Doosan Bears) singing songs.

Last week I went to the stadium four times. Long time ago I went to Jamsil stadium several times just to see the games. This time I visited to see the dome stadium. It was big in my eyes though it was criticized by its scale compared to other countries' ones. I liked it because I could sketch without worrying about weather. Sketching the players' speedy gestures I felt some need to memorize or to think about their poses. Though it would be very hard to catch them it may come true some day as far as I go often. All the scenes were great and nice enough to make drawings. 
지난 주에 고척 스카이 돔에 다녀왔어요. 시범경기라 경기 입장료도 무료(평일)라서 좋았구요. 시범경기라고 해도 선수들과 응원단의 열기는 볼만했습니다. 움직이는, 그것도 순식간에 돌아가는 몸을 그린다는 것이 과연 가능한 것인가하는 의문이 들정도로 연습에 그친 경험이었습니다. 풍경들은 그래도 그릴만해서 이것 저것 담아보았구요. 이번의 계기로 스포츠 경기 스케치에 관심을 갖게 되었어요. 공부 엄청나게 했습니다.
