Kim Do-young collided with Jonathan Peraza, who was playing third base during the defense with two outs and runners on first and second bases in the top of the eighth inning against Hanwha in Gwangju on the 5th. Kim Do-young, who collapsed, was unable to stand up for a while and was eventually replaced. Since then, KIA's head coach Son Seung-rak was briefly captured on the TV broadcast screen, gesturing and talking with Peraza while the referee and Hanwha coach Yang Seung-kwan were watching. After striking out swinging in the top of the 10th inning, Peraza was also seen showing uncomfortable emotions by pointing his finger at the third base KIA bench.
Kim Do-young was unable to play against Kiwoom in Gwangju on the 6th due to dizziness and neck muscle clumping. KIA seemed to refrain from taking a position on the previous day's issue triggered by Kim Do-young's injury. However, Hanwha manager Kim Kyung-moon, who was set to play against LG in Jamsil on the 6th, said, `It is heartbreaking that not only our team but also the main players of the opposing team are injured at this point. In particular, Kim Do-young is a superstar who has fans all over the country. I was also surprised that such a player was injured. "But the regrettable part was that I heard that Ferraza apologized to Kim Do-young and cursed on the bench. He said he was excited because he heard it like that."

Manager Lee said "I'm sorry to say this after about two days" and "Since Hanwha announced its position, I'm telling you because there's something that needs to be clarified about our club's position." He said "Our player was injured due to defensive interference during the game, so he was replaced that day and he couldn't play yesterday"I think the important part is that the player is injured and unable to play due to the game. Regardless of whether it is intentional or not, I think the player was hurt first during the game."
Also, it is regrettable to think that it is officially and informally asking how Kim Do-young is doingAs for the part that became an issue, it was said that one of our coaches cursed. I checked it out. If you did it in a situation where everyone was gathered, everyone would have heard it. It is said that one employee heard it, and Peraza, who received it, did such a thing. But if we used foul language, it would probably have been a mess. If there was such a situation, there would have been sanctions such as referees and players, but if you look at the video, everyone patted on the shoulder and went in. There is a regret from our point of view because there is no part of swearing." "I hope that all teams will move on without any major issues in this area at a time when they are going to an important point," he said, stressing that "the most important thing is to play well with each other without injured players."

Manager Lee said "We do too, but the team over there has a very important game ahead. There is no good when the goal between the teams deepens. I hope it will be sorted out from the position presented today. I don't want this to be an issue anymore."
