This is 'Salshinin'. He must be busy training himself, but he is volunteering as a betting ball pitcher and even a bunt training coach.

Kia Champions Field in Gwangju on the 3rd. KIA players' facial expressions were brighter than ever ahead of the final game of the season against the LG Twins. He won both consecutive games against Samsung on the weekend, moving one step closer to winning the regular league title. The return and performance of veteran Choi Hyung-woo, who felt the vacancy was too big, were also welcome.

Park Chan-ho also bunt training excitedly in response to Choi Hyung-woo's extreme sincerity.

Choi Hyung-woo, who is the oldest member of the team and is showing the same performance as his heyday, stood behind the bunting training pitching machine on the day. He sacrificed his time for his junior Park Chan-ho's bunt training. But there was something special. It didn't just end up simply putting the ball in the machine.

For practical training, you can see the back of Choi Hyung-woo's so 'cute' that he imitates the pitching form of several pitchers first and then quickly puts the ball into the machine.
