What's new on Clinch

Map: world view and nearby hotels

The stadium trip map now has an 'All' button before the continent tabs, so every venue shows on one world map. Selecting a venue also shows 4–5 star, upscale-chain and notable hotels nearby (OpenStreetMap and Wikidata data) as H pins, and the stadium guide lists them. Korean pages also gained Korean names for the 244 overseas venues.

Hotel rows near stadiums (Korean pages)

On Korean stadium guides and the trip map, the hotel row now lists four booking sites in alphabetical order, opened for the next home game date. The coupon page has the same entry cards. English pages are unchanged.

Business details in the footer

Every page now ends with one line of operator details: company name, representative, business registration number, mail-order business report number, address, customer service phone and email. It matches the details shown on momento, run by the same company.

Holiday sports calendar and trip budget

A new holiday calendar shows how many days off Korea's 2027 public holidays (incl. substitute holidays) give with 0, 1 or 2 leave days, cell by cell, plus the home games in Korea, Europe and North America in each window. Public holidays in destinations such as Japan, the USA and Europe are listed too, with that country's games on the day. On the trip budget page, see where nine currencies sit in their one-year range (ECB reference rates) and enter the prices you checked to get a won total and the months needed to save it. Next month's international fuel surcharge, as announced by the airline, is included.

Trip coupon codes

A new page gathers Klook coupon codes by region, from Europe and Japan to the USA. See the discount, code and last day at a glance, copy a code in one tap, and spot codes ending within seven days. Overseas venue guides and the stadium trip map now show one code for that region too. Codes are refreshed weekly and drop off once they expire.

Venue guide pages and eSIM links

Each of the 303 grounds on the stadium trip map now has its own guide page, with checked facts such as the nearest station, parking, tickets, bag rules and capacity, plus the next three home games. Tap a venue on the map and choose 'Full venue guide' to open it. Venues abroad also get an eSIM link for that country.

My stadium checklist

Log the grounds you have been to and see how many of all 303 you have visited, your progress in each league and your latest visits. Pick from today's or recent games, or search for a venue and add the date. Your KBO game log counts as visits to the home ground. Sign in to keep it in your account, and use 'Visited only' on the map to see just those venues.

Weekend away-day routes and multi-game trips

Weekend routes group this Saturday's and Sunday's home games by area: six regions in Korea, plus Europe and North America. They move to the next weekend every Thursday morning. We also added seven multi-game trips (MLB West and East, NBA California, Texas, southern Germany, Yeongnam and the Seoul area), each built from the earliest workable set of games on the schedule, with dates, venues and the distance between cities.

Every sport on the home rail, more races

The home page rail now shows every sport on the site, plus running and the stadium trip map, as posters you can flip through, with new photos for MLS, the Asian Cup, the World Cup and running. The running calendar adds the Cape Town Marathon, now the eighth major, races in Japan, Asia and the Pacific, and the MBN Seoul Marathon half. Ad and partnership notices now sit on the first line of each slot, so you can see what is an ad before anything else.

MLS is here, Son Heung-min's LAFC included

All 30 MLS clubs are now on the site: Eastern and Western Conference standings, the MLS Cup Playoffs picture and bracket for the top nine in each conference, magic and tragic numbers, the schedule in Korea time and a scenarios page for every club. On LAFC's page, Son Heung-min's club, you also get a trip card for the next home game and team alerts.

Stadium trip map

Every ground we cover, from the KBO and K League to MLB, the NBA, the NFL, European football and F1, is now on one map. Tap a venue to see its next game and stays, transport and tours in that city, and switch on nearby subway exits and parking. Team pages link to it with 'View on map'.

F1 Grand Prix tickets and travel links are back

The F1 home, driver and team pages again list Grand Prix tickets you can book on Klook. The F1 calendar now has a travel card for the next Grand Prix city, with stays, airport transfers and tours. As with other sports, the advertising and partnership slots are back too.

Title wait cards for the KBO and World Series

The KBO postseason and MLB World Series pages now show, for every club still in it, how many years it has been since its last title and every year it has won. A countdown to Game 1 sits on top. Clubs that lose a series turn grey, and once a champion is crowned the section becomes a single line. Each postseason club's team page also gets its own title history card.

My team alerts in all 15 leagues

Team email alerts now cover 15 leagues: KBO, MLB, NFL, NBA, K League, KBL, V-League and European football. Tap 'Get alerts' under the numbers on any team page and the sign-up opens with that team already picked. Emails go out once a day at 09:00 KST, only on days the numbers change.

Team cards for every sport

Team pages for MLB, NFL, KBL, K League, European football, the Champions League and F1 now have shareable cards with your team's place and magic number, ready for Instagram stories, in five new themes.

Sign in and pick your KBO team on My page to get one morning email when its magic number changes, a place is settled, the next game can decide a place, or postseason tickets go on sale. You can switch it off at any time.

MLB and NFL game pages

Every MLB and NFL game now has its own page with the line score, box score, Korean and US kickoff times, and how the result moves the playoff numbers. MLB also has a page for each postseason series, from the Wild Card round to the World Series, with wins still needed and the schedule.

Six share card styles

On a club page, 'Card image' now lets you pick a scoreboard, poster, ticket, front page, race or minimal card and save it. Rank, record, magic number and reachable rank are filled in from the current numbers, and your last pick is remembered.
