DALLAS, TX / ACCESS Newswire / June 26, 2026 / Adapti, Inc. (OTCID:ADTI), a company developing AI technology to integrate sports and influencer management, today announced the completion of a strategic move to expand as the Ballengee formalized a partnership with UA Company in Korea, which represents over 25 Korean Baseball Organization (KBO) players.
The partnership will help represent their Major League interests via posting, MLB contracts, and domestic marketing opportunities. UA Company represents Dae-Ho Lee, nicknamed the "cleanup hitter of Korea," who recently retired after a career in which he hit .304 with 488 home runs across the KBO, NPB, and MLB.
Since 1994, South Korea has produced 30 MLB players including six that are currently playing on MLB rosters. Two Koreans have been world series champions including Hyeseong Kim who made his major league debut in May 2025 and won the World Series with the Los Angeles Dodgers last year.
Looking ahead, the pipeline of talent from South Korea to MLB shows no signs of slowing down. With each successful export, the aspirations of young South Korean baseball players grow, as do the opportunities for further bridging the cultural and athletic exchanges between South Korea and the United States. The marketing opportunities are only increasing.
President Sung Kook Bang said, "We are very excited for the opportunity to partner with Ballengee Group and expand our agency's operations internationally alongside such a respected agency."
"I'm incredibly excited about our new partnership with UA company," said Scott Lonergan, President of Baseball Operations at Ballengee Group. "UA company is the perfect collaborator for Ballengee Group. This alliance strengthens our global reach and creates tremendous opportunities to support elite talent on both sides of the Pacific. We look forward to building something truly impactful together."
