Taiwan coach Zeng Hao-ju said on WBSC on the 12th (Korea time) that he had appointed Lin Yu-min as the starting player for the Korean match.
Manager Zeng did not reveal the starting pitcher until the press conference, raising questions. In an interview with local reporters after the event, he only said that the best pitcher in the team will start (against Korea)." At the supervisor's meeting, he proposed reserving the disclosure of the starting pitcher, and kept silent at the press conference. While head coach Ryu Joong-il first announced Ko Young-pyo (KT Wiz)'s start through domestic reporters, coach Zeng also announced Lin Yu-min to WBSC.
Ryu Joong-il was scoreless until the sixth inning in the preliminary round of the Hangzhou Asian Games, when he first met Lin Yu-min last year, and eventually lost 0-4. He scored two runs in the fifth inning against Lin Yu-min, who took the mound again in the final, and kept it and won the gold medal by winning 2-0. However, even in the second meeting, he failed to completely target it.

Taiwan's Yahoo Sports reported that "Coach Zeng said he only considered the order of starting pitchers in the game." Coach Zeng said, `We only focus on every game, but we haven't considered it since. All the players will come out and do their best."
Veteran bullpen agent Cheon Kwan-yu (Rakuten Monkeys) nodded to Lin Yu-min's selection. "It's the best choice," he said through Yahoo Sports in Taiwan. He predicted that he would have prepared himself well.' Regarding left-hander Sideam Wang Jishian (Rakuten Monkeys), who is expected to take the mound in relief against Korea, he also praised "A player who deserves to wear the national team's uniform without a doubt."
