Hanwha Eagles embraced Ha Joo-seok. Even if I left it coldly 'MIA', Hanwha would never be criticized. However, he didn't let the franchise star, who he has been raising, spend a lonely winter.
Ha signed a one-year FA contract with Hanwha on the 8th. The contract will allow Ha to continue his career at Hanwha.
It was a dramatic contract. As mentioned above, in fact, Ha was on the verge of taking off his uniform this season.
Ha Joo-seok, who wore Hanwha's uniform as the No. 1 rookie in 2012, has only walked 'Flower Road'. However, his position was inevitably narrowed as his skills stagnated and his image fell due to various accidents. Last season alone, Ha Joo-seok was pushed by Hwang Young-mook and Lee Do-yoon and failed to get a proper opportunity.
In the meantime, Ha Joo-seok had his first opportunity to apply for FA. Grade B. Rewards occurred, so it was hard to think of a transfer to another team easily. Applying for FA here could have made Hanwha uncomfortable. The player's hard-earned right is free to apply. But that was also something that could be wise to do while looking at the market and team situation. Anyone can see that applying for the FA could have been an excuse for a cool-headed club to give up the contract altogether in a situation where it is right to seek 'FA re-entry'.
Ha Joo-seok made an FA application against expectations. But it was the worst from the start. Hanwha, the original team, brought shortstop Shim Woo-joon, who played for KT Wiz, for four years and 5 billion won. This was like declaring that he had no intention of signing a contract with Ha Joo-seok. As Shim Woo-joon plays full-time, if Hwang Young-mook or Lee Do-yoon is on standby as a backup, Ha Joo-seok will not actually have much impact even if he is not in the first team.
There was no team looking for Ha Joo-seok, whether the problem was a compensation problem or a skill problem. There was also talk of sign-and-trade, but even this was not feasible. The reaction of the other teams to Ha Joo-seok was very cold.
Hanwha has already finished its team formation. There was no reason to catch Ha Joo-seok. On top of that, player-turned-tuber Cha Woo-chan set fire to the fire through his personal broadcast. Analyzing the reason for Ha Joo-seok's FA application, he interpreted it from a player's point of view that he applied for the FA because he thought he would leave the team unconditionally to change the atmosphere of the player's life. If Ha Joo-seok applied for the FA for that reason, there was no reason for Hanwha to take care of him even more.
However, Hanwha embraced Ha Joo-seok again, who had nowhere to go. It may be shabby by FA standards, but he gave generous treatment on a one-year basis. Ha's annual salary last season was 70 million won. He played only 64 games, but his salary increased.
