Choo Shin-soo’s consideration… Receive uniform number 17 and give a watch

[앵커]

Choo Shin-soo, who became the center of attention as he announced the return of Korean baseball, joined the SSG team.

Instead of yielding uniform number 17, Choo Shin-soo presented a luxury watch to a junior to show distribution like a major leaguer.

After self-isolation, Shin-soo Choo raises his hand with a bright face when he arrives at Sajik Stadium in Busan to join the SSG team.

After the practice match, I changed to the uniform with ’17th Choo Shin-soo’ and made my first greetings with the team.

At this event, Choo Shin-soo surprised everyone by presenting a luxury watch worth tens of millions of won to Lee Tae-yang, who gave up his uniform number 17.

<추신수 / SSG 외야수> “I wanted to give a special gift to remain in my memory from such gratitude because Taeyang Lee gave me well without any emotions.”

When Choo Shin-soo left and said that he misses Ryu Hyun-jin, the eldest Korean big leaguer, he mischievously revealed the backstory.

<추신수 / SSG 외야수> “(Going to Korea) I was very envious of being Hyunjin. It was different from what I said in the article. I said that I was envious of me.

One of the reasons why Choo Shin-soo left his family in the United States and took over the father of the goose is that SSG won the championship.

After receiving an offer to join and confirming the name of the SSG squad, he said that he did not hesitate to solidify his determination.

<추신수 / SSG 외야수> “I came because I felt that (SSG) was a team that could win and win. The reason I came here with a lot of sacrifice and giving up is to win.”

Choo Shin-soo is scheduled to show the first Korean stage through practice matches with Samsung to be held in Daegu on the 16th and 17th.
