“I’m not the starting shortstop yet…but I’m close.”
Excessive humility can sometimes feel pretentious. In that respect, Kim Joo-won, the future of NC and the idol of Changwon, made listeners laugh with appropriate confidence. He said that he has yet to participate in the opening match due to an injury sustained in spring camp last year, but this year he is trying to show himself ‘not ashamed’ from the beginning.
Looking back on last year, Kim Joo-won said, “I fell in the middle of the camp and couldn’t play in the demonstration game. I’m looking forward to playing an exhibition game in the first team for the first time this year, and I’m curious about the results of what I prepared during the off-season and spring camp. I feel excited.” talked
Of course, this is the first entry for the opening. With the transfer of Noh Jin-hyeok (Lotte), the NC shortstop seems to be solidifying Kim Joo-won. Kim Joo-won said, “If you enter the opening entry, you will receive such an opportunity for the first time during your debut. I think it will be tense and fun.” I think it will be good to greet you,” he said with a smile.스포츠토토
I prepared diligently as I judged that I was in the position of ‘not the main shortstop, but still close’. Kim Joo-won said, “This is the season where I can go to the most games while playing baseball so far. did,” he said.
If Kim Joo-won can safely spend a season as the starting shortstop, there will be a chance to wear the Taegeuk mark in the fall. The KBO decided to put an age limit on the Asian Games national team, and after the season is over, the APBC (Asia Professional Baseball Championship), a trilateral tournament in Korea, Japan and Taiwan, in which younger players in their early 20s will participate.
Kim Joo-won said, “I have motivation, but if I stick to it, I may not be able to play baseball, and I will become anxious and stressed myself. For now, I am trying to focus on the season.” Instead, he vowed, “I want to be that kind of shortstop who becomes a pillar on the team in the future.”
