AI Summary
T1 is launching a collaboration with Red Sea Global featuring a sea turtle mascot named Amal. The merchandise will debut at the 2026 T1 Home Ground event held at INSPIRE ARENA. All proceeds are dedicated to marine conservation efforts, reflecting the team's commitment to ESG values.

T1 is rolling out a co-branded merchandise collection featuring 'Amal', the new mascot for Saudi Arabia’s regenerative tourism developer, Red Sea Global (RSG).
The initiative aims to broadcast the values of 'Regenerative Tourism' championed by RSG to esports fans across the globe, while encouraging active participation in protecting our marine ecosystems.
The mascot itself, Amal, is rooted in a genuine, heartwarming tale. Back in 2021, RSG’s environmental team rescued a hawksbill sea turtle suffering from 'Floating Syndrome'. Following a successful rehabilitation, the turtle was released back into the wild on Al Waqadi Island—a vital nesting ground for the endangered species within the Red Sea region. The team fittingly named her 'Amal', which translates to 'hope' in Arabic.
The collection, featuring keyrings and plushies, will be unveiled at the 'LCK Team Roadshow: 2026 T1 Home Ground', held at the INSPIRE ARENA from the 24th to the 26th. Each piece reflects the journey of Amal's rescue and recovery. 100% of the profits will be donated to organizations dedicated to sea turtle conservation and marine health.
Raed Albasseet, Group Chief Environment and Sustainability Officer at RSG, stated: "Amal serves as a living symbol, spreading our mission for regenerative tourism to the world." He added, "Through our partnership with T1, we hope to inspire the next generation of ocean advocates."
T1 COO Woong-ki Ahn remarked: "We were truly inspired by our fans, who have consistently demonstrated a force for good through environmental clean-ups and blood donation drives, which led us to launch this ESG project." He concluded, "Collaborating with RSG through Amal allows us to drive tangible environmental change and foster a more responsible culture within the esports scene."

T1은 사우디아라비아의 재생 관광 개발사 '레드 씨 글로벌(Red Sea Global, 이하 RSG)'의 새로운 마스코트 '아말(Amal)'과 공동 브랜드 굿즈 컬렉션을 출시한다.
RSG가 추진하는 '재생 관광(Regenerative Tourism)'의 가치를 전 세계 e스포츠 팬들에게 알리고, 해양 생태계 보호를 위한 실천을 독려하기 위해 시작됐다.
마스코트인 아말은 실제 사례를 바탕으로 기획됐다. 2021년 부력 증후군(Floating Syndrome)을 앓고 있던 매부리바다거북 한 마리가 발견되어 RSG 환경팀은 치료와 재활을 위해 거북을 구조했다. 회복을 마친 거북은 멸종 위기종의 산란지인 레드씨 지역 내 알 와카디(Al Waqadi) 섬의 야생으로 돌아갔다. 환경팀은 이 거북에게 아랍어로 '희망'을 뜻하는 아말이라는 이름을 붙여줬다.
굿즈는 키링, 인형 등으로 구성되며 24일부터 26일까지 인스파이어 아레나(INSPIRE ARENA)에서 열리는 LCK 팀 로드쇼: 2026 T1 홈 그라운드에 공개된다. 아말의 구조와 회복에 대한 여정을 담은 스토리텔링 요소를 반영했다. 판매 수익금 100%는 바다거북 보존 및 해양 건강 증진을 위해 활동하는 기관에 기부한다.
라에드 알바세트(Raed Albasseet) RSG 그룹 최고 환경 및 지속가능성 책임자는 "아말은 우리의 재생 관광 미션을 전 세계로 전파하는 생명력 있는 상징"이라며, "T1과의 파트너십을 통해 차세대 해양 보호 옹호자들에게 영감을 주고자 한다"고 전했다.
T1 COO 안웅기는 "그동안 환경 정화, 헌혈 등 선한 영향력을 보여준 T1 팬들의 모습에서 영감을 받아 이번 ESG 경영 프로젝트를 추진하게 되었다"며, "아말을 통해 RSG와 협력하여 실질적인 환경 변화를 주도하고 책임감 있는 e스포츠 문화를 조성해 나갈 것"이라고 밝혔다.
