Kim Tae-kyun (42) of Hanwha Eagles donated the entire proceeds of his book.

Kim Tae-kyun had time to donate 5 million won to the Hongseong Love Scholarship Association in Hongseong-gun on the 16th.

Kim Tae-kyun recently published his batting theory book `My thoughts on hitting.' Kim Tae-kyun, a public relations ambassador for Hongseong-gun, donated all of the proceeds from the publication to use it for local talents in Hongseong.

In addition, on October 26, the second Kim Tae-kyun baseball camp will be held at the Manhae Baseball Stadium located in Seongjeong-myeon, Hongseong-gun this year.

Hongseong-gun County Governor Lee Yong-rok said, "Tae-kyun is here" through Hongseong-gun YouTube, and after donating his talent to middle school baseball players in the region on March 13, we are deeply grateful that he is serving as an ambassador for Hongseong-gun by donating all the profits from the publication of his batting theory, and let's work together for the success of the 2nd Kim Tae-kyun baseball camp in Hongseong."

Unlike other baseball camps, Hongseong-gun plans to hold 'Kim Tae-kyun Baseball Camp In Hongseong' on October 26 as a time to guide elementary school students by forming a coaching team with active KBO players. It plans to systematically conduct the program to deliver future dreams and hopes to elementary school students and become a cradle for producing future KBO stars.

At the first Kim Tae-kyun Agu camp in November last year, nine KBO star coaches, including active players such as Son Ah-seop (NC Dinos), Huh Kyung-min (Doosan Bears) Kang Min-ho, Koo Ja-wook (Samsung Lions), Lee Tae-yang, Chae Eun-sung, and Jung Woo-ram (Hanwha), and retired Choi Joon-seok and Yoo Hee-kwan, coached 52 promising players across the country to finish baseball successfully.

Based on the success of the camp, it held an exchange game with Japan, and this year, it is striving to develop Hongseong-gun and local baseball by visiting Manhae Baseball Stadium on March 13 to provide batting guidance to 26 middle school baseball players from Hongseong BC-U16.
