On the 1st, the managing director completed the final notification of individual acceptance for applicants. Notifications are made individually, and each KBO League club is trying to figure out the final successful candidate list among its players.
The most prominent name among the successful candidates is Hanwha Eagles infielder Jung Eun-won. Jung Eun-won, a former Golden Glove winner in the second baseman category in 2021, has been greatly loved by Hanwha fans since his debut as a high school graduate rookie in 2018. However, he failed to shake off the swamp of his poor batting performance. After hitting a batting average of 283 in 2021, it fell to 274 in the 2022 season and 2202 last year, forcing them to compete for the starting lineup. Ahead of this season, he even turned to the outfield, but played only 27 games and went down to the second division on May 20 to play in the Futures League.
Joining Sangmu could be a new opportunity for Jung Eun-won. After solving the military service problem that was holding back, an environment has been created to grow one step further. In addition to Jung Eun-won, Hanwha pitcher Han Seung-joo was listed on the list of successful candidates.

In the LG Twins, pitcher Kang Hyo-jong will join Sangmu. Kang Hyo-jong, who was the first designated player in 2021, is an unfinished standby with a record of 2 wins, 2 losses and an ERA of 6.43 in nine games in the first division.

Only one infielder Jeon Eui-san was on the list of successful candidates for SSG Landers, and outfielder Jung Joon-young and pitcher Kim Young-hyun passed KT Wiz. Pitcher Kim Dong-hyuk and catcher Kim Si-ang were listed for the Kiwoom Heroes.
Song Myung-ki, a promising player with starting experience, passed the NC Dinos, and pitcher Lee Yong-joon, who has been an alternative starter three times this season, will also join the army. Only one outfielder Kim Hyun-joon was listed as a successful candidate for the Samsung Lions.
The final successful applicants will enter the training center on December 2nd and spend about a year and a half on training and a schedule of the Sangmu baseball team.
Meanwhile, the KIA Tigers are the only ones who have passed.
