Lim Chan-kyu will fill the vacancy of Won Tae-in (Samsung), who left due to an injury during the Korean Series.
The KBO Power Reinforcement Committee confirmed LG Lim Chan-kyu as a replacement for Samsung's Won Tae-in, who has been unable to play due to injury on the 29th.
KBO explained "The national team coaching staff and the Power Enhancement Committee decided that starting pitcher replacement players were needed, and after discussion, they decided to make the final selection of Lim Chan-kyu." Lim Chan-kyu will join the national team's training from the 30th.

Won Tae-in's injuries confirmed by Samsung include right shoulder joint, net damage and rotator cuff inflammation. It was judged that at least four to six weeks of rehabilitation was necessary.
Earlier, with Moon Dong-ju (Hanwha) missing due to injury and Park Se-woong (Samsung) missing from basic military training, Son Joo-young (LG) and Won Tae-in also left due to injury, creating a big gap in the national team's selection. Manager Ryu Joong-il's happy worries, which originally thought of starting and operating the concept of '1+1', were shattered.

Lim Chan-kyu had the best year of his life this year. He also played an active role in autumn baseball and showed off his appearance as a "Autumn Man". He was responsible for the team's victory at every crisis until the 2nd, 5th, and 3rd round of the semi-playoff, and left a real record of winning the Daily MVP in all three games. It is also a well-received point that he has been in physical condition since he played until relatively recently.
