Home of the SSG Landers, the former Incheon Munhak Baseball Stadium has been renamed as Incheon SSG Landers Field.[1] The stadium has been remodeled with Shinsegae(SSG) affiliate brands, including Starbucks, No Brand Burger, and the convenience store e-mart 24.[2] The SSG Landers Field has changed its main theme color to red and yellow, which represents the team's historical color used since the SK Wyverns. Also, the red color and yellow color respectively represent Shinsegae and e-mart as well.[3]

The Stadium was serving as the filming location of SBS TV successful television series Hot Stove League that starred Namkoong Min. The stadium was used as the homebase of the central team of the series "Dreams" that has been hitting rock-bottom in the league until Namkoong came to help them.
