From Game 2 to Game 5, he played 40 minutes of full time in four consecutive games. He played 160 minutes without a break. After playing as a substitute in the first game, he actively suggested to KT manager Song Young-jin, and in the end, Heo Woong hard carried KT's attack, scoring 22 points in the second game and 37 points in the third game. KT lost to KCC with one win and four losses in the championship match, but Huh Hoon was unrivaled. It was the second-place team, but it was once mentioned as a strong MVP candidate for the championship.
He was very active in the match against the Champs, demonstrating 'number one guard'.
Last season Huh Hoon was incomplete. After Sangmu was discharged from the military, he joined KT during the season, and he also had injuries. His physical condition was not 100% throughout the regular league.
This season, he is drawing attention. become a reserve FA. This season 'FA Lloyds' will take place. In addition, he took on the new captaincy. It is a season where personal motivation and responsibility are at the same time as the team's ace.
In the offseason, he lost a lot of weight. I couldn't concentrate on my exercise. However, he quickly recovered himself.
On the 15th, he met at the Suwon KT Sonicboom practice gym and his movements were light. In a practice game against Hanyang University, he recorded the most points in the team, 11 points (3 3-pointers), 2 rebounds, 3 assists, and 2 steals. I was a starting member, but I didn't run for much time. The shooting efficiency was very high, and the sharp breakthrough and accurate outer gun remained.
The most impressive part was the defensive pressure ability. He worked with Han Hee-won, Moon Sung-gon, and Moon Jung-hyun to pressure the outskirts of Hanyang University all the time, and connected two steals to the fastball. It was a perfect look in the airlift.
After the game, he said "I lost weight after the season, but now I'm in perfect condition. His body fat percentage is always around 8%.
He is the first captain since the university. He is trying to lead by example. I think the most important thing is defense. Since Moon Sung-gon, Han Hee-won, and Moon Jung-hyun are so good, they are trying to strengthen the team's defense by working together."

He said "In fact, height is important in the short term. That's why foreign players are important. Last season (Paris) Bath did well, but eventually lost because they failed to block the heights of KCC Ra Gun-ah, Choi Joon-yong and Song Kyo-chang. We need foreign players to score in important situations."
Let's say 'I think Heo Hoon can fill the score, ' with a smile "I have to do well, too. However, as a whole, yes."
Heo Hun did not make the national team in this warm-up match in Japan. It's because of the aftermath of the injury. Lee Jung-hyun was very active.
He praised Lee Jung-hyun. "It was a great performance. I think it would be very interesting if we played basketball together on one team or another team." He, who was praising Lee Jung-hyun in the middle of the game, joked. "(이)Jeong-hyun stole a lot of my skills. I played a lot of one-on-one in the national team last year, but the Japanese team used the technique I used. A really good player."
Looking at the team's power and personal skills, Huh Hoon is already considered a candidate for MVP in the regular league along with Lee Jung-hyun. Huh Hoon, who is close to manager Kim Seung-ki, also made a barking joke, saying, `We have KCCC, SK, DB, LG, etc., can Sono go to the semifinals?' Lee Jung-hyun would do well, but it was a joke that meant he would not be MVP because of his team's performance. In fact, Huh Hoon was particularly strong in the match against KGC, where Kim was at the helm. At the time, head coach Kim even stuck his tongue out, saying, "(Heo) Hoon is not going to let go of him."
