"There's been a lot of hair loss."

KT Wiz manager Lee Kang-chul said, "I want to see a native left-hander who plays full time in the first division. Native left-handers have not been able to display good performance in the KT mound recently. There was no native left-hander in the fall baseball entry last season. The only left-hander was foreign pitcher Wes Benjamin.
KT left-hander Jeon Yong-joo is sweating heavily in the offseason to capture manager Lee Kang-chul's heart, escaping from his slump. He also received a thumbs-up from manager Lee Kang-chul at the Wakayama Spring Camp in Japan after the end of last season, so I will look forward to it again in the upcoming season.

No wonder, Jeon was considered a rising star to lead the KT mound just as he joined the team. Jeon is the first player to wear the KT uniform in 2019. His alma mater is Ansan High School. Kim Kwang-hyun, the "representative pitcher of the KBO League," is his alma mater, and it was the first time in 12 years that the first player to be appointed from Ansan High School since Kim Kwang-hyun joined the SK Wyverns in 2007. So much anticipation was high.

However, he did not display good performance. He only posted an ERA of 15.00 in four games in the 2019 season. He underwent Tommy John surgery on his left elbow and returned to the team after completing military service, but did not display good performance. He only posted an ERA of 4.35 in 15 games and one hold in 15 games in the 2023 season, and 10.80 in four games in the 2024 season. He only posted an ERA of 7.20 in 23 games and one hold in his entire career in the Korean pro baseball league.

"I've been wandering around a lot. There were a lot of things that weren't organized during the season," Jeon said on the phone on the 10th. "I think I had time to find something for myself by throwing a lot of balls at the Japanese wrap-up camp. Something has not been established so far, but I've improved as I communicated with the coach and coach one by one."

"I think I've had some minor injuries and impatience. That's how I started the season. I shouldn't have done that," he said. "If you prepare well, make a lot of effort, and start the game from a stable form, the results will naturally follow."

As mentioned above, Lee wants to see native left-handers perform well. That's why he brought in left-hander Oh Won-seok from SSG even after giving up the first designated right-handed fireballer Kim Min after the end of the season. However, Oh Won-seok is not enough. Jeon also knows.

"The reality is that native left-handed pitchers in the team have not performed well so far. I am aware of that," he said. "I am trying to focus on the role I have to play. Rather than being greedy to say, 'I have to do it,' I will try to become a pitcher who can control myself."

I don't have any big goals for 2025. Staying in the first team entry for a long time and playing a lot of games. That's all. It seems like a normal goal, but it's a meaningful goal and challenge for Jeon.

Jeon Yong-joo said, "My goal is to play a lot of games. I want to experience many things one by one while playing a lot. I don't have a goal for my grades. KT has so many good brothers and sisters. If you do it, your grades will come out naturally and give me strength." 메이저놀이터

Jeon Yong-joo, who said, "I want to make a body optimized for baseball before leaving Australia," said, "I want to show fans how to improve one step by one. I think there will be more feelings as time goes by. I haven't shown you a good performance, but I will try to show you a different performance in the future."
