On August 2, Kwon Eun Bi attended the KBO League matchup between the Doosan Bears and the LG Twins at Jamsil Baseball Stadium in Seoul.
Serving as the game’s ceremonial first pitcher, she later celebrated Doosan’s victory by sharing photos from the event on social media, writing: “A perfect day even the win.” Wearing a Doosan Bears jersey over a white sleeveless top and denim shorts, Kwon Eun Bi spent the day enjoying the game from the stands while interacting with fans.
Although her first pitch attracted attention, the biggest talking point came later in the evening. Kwon Eun Bi took the stage during “Doo Flash,” the Doosan Bears’ annual summer festival event, where she performed alongside the team’s cheerleaders. Standing on the cheer platform, she danced through powerful choreography while being drenched by streams of water, creating an atmosphere that many compared to Waterbomb. Videos recorded by fans quickly spread across social media, with her performance becoming one of the event’s most talked-about moments.
After the videos went viral, fans flooded social media with enthusiastic reactions. Some of the most popular comments included:
- She’s a real goddess.
- I honestly thought this was Waterbomb.
- This is so unbelievably sexy.
- So this is why she skipped Waterbomb.
- Wherever Kwon Eun Bi goes becomes Waterbomb.
The viral performance reignited discussions about her absence from this year’s Waterbomb festival, with many joking that she had simply brought the festival experience to the baseball stadium instead.
Kwon Eun Bi debuted in 2018 as a member of IZ*ONE before launching a successful solo career. Known for her strong vocals, confident stage presence, and dynamic performances, she has become one of Korea’s most recognizable summer performers. Her unforgettable appearances at Waterbomb over the past several years earned her nicknames including: Waterbomb Goddess, Festival Queen and Summer Queen.
Although she did not participate in Waterbomb 2026, fans continue to associate her with the festival thanks to her signature high-energy performances.
While many fans were disappointed by her absence from this year’s Waterbomb lineup, Kwon Eun Bi’s appearance at the Doosan Bears game demonstrated that she can create the same electrifying atmosphere anywhere she performs.
Her soaked “Doo Flash” stage quickly became one of the weekend’s viral moments, reinforcing the reputation that has made her one of K-pop’s defining summer performers.
