Kim Taek-yeon (aged 19, Doosan Bears) took a step ahead of him in the start. However, Hwang Joon-seo (aged 19, Hanwha Eagles) who was selected earlier than him is approaching.

At the KBO awards ceremony held on the 26th, Kim Taek-yeon won the Rookie of the Year award. Kim Taek-yeon, who had the most 19 saves in the history of high school graduates and played 60 games (65 innings) with a 2.08 strikeout and 78 ERA, received 93 votes out of 101 effective votes. With 92.1% of the vote, she became the winner of the Rookie of the Year award, which is only once in a lifetime.

Kim was drafted by Doosan as the second overall pick in the first round. Hwang Jun-su, the "first overall pick" left-hander who was recognized as a left-hander and was named by Hanwha before Kim, was also okay for his first year. In 36 games (11 starts, 72 innings), he recorded two wins, eight losses and one hold with an ERA of 5.38 strikeouts. It is regrettable compared to Kim, but he showed sufficient potential as a 19-year-old high school graduate rookie.

Hwang Joon-seo, who made his splendid debut with his 10th debut win (one run in five innings) against KT in Daejeon on March 31, has been in the starting rotation for two months since mid-April. He struck out Koo Ja-wook in a row against Daejeon Samsung on April 20 and pitched well with one run in five innings, and won the match against Lotte in Daejeon on May 29 by succeeding in his first quality start with six scoreless innings.
He displayed powerful performance with fastballs with speeds of up to 149 kilometers per hour and powerful winning shots. He displayed robust distribution even in crisis situations, but his physical stamina was a problem. As the weather began to get warmer, his physical strength rapidly declined, and his ball control, which is his strength, was also shaken as his ball speed decreased. Hanwha, which had a lot of variables in its pitching staff, could not afford to nurture Hwang Joon-seo in the second division due to team circumstances. He joined the second division in early August and had two weeks of starting class, but was called up again to finish the season with the bullpen. He struggled to manage his physical stamina for a long season, and couldn't regain his physical strength when he was in good shape early in the season.

After the season, he went to the Japanese Education League, but returned to Korea midway through the training. As he filled 90 innings in total for this season, he needed to take care of himself. Hwang, whose task is to develop physical stamina and physical strength, fell into the Miyazaki Finishing Camp in Japan and focused on strengthening basic physical strength in Seosan. He needs to build a body and stamina that can hold 144 long-term races.

Throughout November, Hwang ate three meals a day, which he served in Seosan for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, without skipping meals a day. He also took protein from time to time and focused on gaining weight enough to eat chocolate until he went to bed. Standing 185 centimeters tall and weighing 78 kilograms, Hwang is physically skinny and easily gains weight. He has recognized that he needs to supplement his weight despite the daunting tasks.

Hwang said, "In the beginning of the season, I had so much fun because my performance came out. However, I felt my strength gradually decline from the middle of the season. The fact that I lost balance in my pitching at some point was also due to my physical stamina. I think I couldn't find good balance right away and wandered around."

"I was told too many times to gain weight. The general manager told me not to stress too much about my weight. I think I am building physical strength rather than gaining weight. I will focus on weight training even during the off-season," he said, adding that he will focus on building muscle strength.

It was a year when I felt necessary not only for physical strength but also for many other things. Hwang said, "I didn't have a routine as I was in the first year. I need to make my own routine from warming up to preparing for the game. I'm going to throw a lot of sliders next year. I'm practicing as a cutter while playing catch ball from a short distance." Fork ball has a clear ball, but one more breaking ball is needed to throw long balls as a starter.

Hanwha has settled down in the second season after both Moon Dong-ju and Kim Seo-hyun suffered trial and error in the first year, growing into a starting team and a must-win group, respectively. Hwang Jun-seo is better than Moon Dong-ju or Kim Seo-hyun in the first year's performance alone. Kim Taek-yeon is so good from the beginning that there is a comparison, but Hwang Jun-seo's time is approaching. 스포츠토토

Hanwha, which has recruited Eom Sang-baek from the FA, has five starting positions including Ryu Hyun-jin, Moon Dong-ju, Ryan Weiss and new foreign pitchers. However, no one knows when or how there will be vacancy in the starting lineup. Hwang's growth is important. "I will play baseball for the first time in my new stadium next year. I have a personal goal, but my goal is to make sure my team plays fall baseball."
