(Seoul = Yonhap News) Reporter Kim Kyung-moon = Baseball national coach Kim Kyung-moon said, “I want to convey congratulations as a senior” about Choo Shin-soo (39)’s KBO league campaign.
In a phone call with Yonhap News on the 23rd, Director Kim said, “I am happy that Shin-soo Choo, who played a big role in the MLB, will show a high level of skills in front of domestic fans.” I hope you will give it to me.”
When it came to Choo Shin-soo’s selection of the Tokyo Olympics national team, he was spared.
Manager Kim Gyeong-moon said, “It is a burden on Choo Shin-soo to present a position regarding the selection of the national team at the time of the announcement of the contract.”
Choo Shin-soo was unable to join the national team due to opposition from the MLB team after playing with the Taegeuk mark at the 2010 Asian Games in Guangzhou.
However, by choosing the KBO league, all obstacles to participation in the Tokyo Olympics have disappeared.
If you have the skills you showed in MLB and have your own will, you can wear the Taegeuk mark and step on the Olympic stage in 11 years.
Shin-soo Choo has never played with director Kim Kyung-moon.
In the 2009 World Baseball Classic in which Choo participated, coach In-sik Kim led the national team, and coach Bum-hyun Cho took the baton of the Guangzhou Asian Games national team.
Meanwhile, coach Kim Gyeong-moon said, “I will visit each stadium this year from the demonstration game to check the skills of the players.”
SK Wyverns, acquired by Shinsegae Group E-Mart, announced that it had signed a contract with Choo Shin-soo for an annual salary of 2.7 billion won.
