Before the COVID-19 pandemic, the market of the professional sports industry in South Korea was steadily growing in line with the increase in sales revenue for the sports industry over the years. In particular, baseball, soccer, and basketball have been leading the popularity of pro sports in South Korea. While baseball represents the sport with the most spectators, football is perceived as the sport played the most as a casual activity, especially by South Korean men.
