Through NC Dinos, Doosan Bears and SSG Landers 'Junnyman'. But there has been no release. Demand for young, medium and long-range big guns with one-shot long balls was steady.
But ahead of the 2025 season, when he turns 32, Kang had to hear that he was released. It was a shock to the young player.
But the shock is also brief. Kang Jin-seong received a phone call as soon as he was notified of the release. It was a call from Kiwoom Heroes. Kiwoom was looking at Kang Jin-seong, who has the ability to solve chances and can defend first base and outfield corners, whether it is the main player or pinch hitter. Kiwoom's general manager Ko Hyung-wook stressed that it was not a sudden recruitment, saying, `A player who had been thinking of recruiting Kang Jin-sung since he was traded to SSG.'
For Kang, Kiwoom can be a land of opportunity. Of course, just because you've been at the bottom for two consecutive years doesn't mean you're sure to be the main player right away. There is a big mountain called Choi Joo-hwan at first base, and Kiwoom is a solid team in the outfield. He will be able to play in Choi Joo-hwan's backup or platoon system, but he is not in a situation to give up his starting position. The designated hitter's seat is also empty.

Kang Jin-sung is also motivated by the evaluation that there can be many opportunities in Kiwoom for the new competition at Kiwoom. But the competition was with any team. NC, Doosan, and SSG were all the same. I'm only thinking about what I can do better than competition. Through this spring camp, I will build my body with the mindset that I will upgrade myself.'

It's the first release I've ever experienced. Kang Jin-sung was released by another team and received a difficult opportunity in the sorrow. The desperation is bound to be greater." The goal this year is to somehow make the first team entry and stay in the season from start to finish. If I aim to play in 100 games and if I get ready well, I'm setting a goal of 100 hits and 15 home runs, I'm confidently saying, "I'm setting a goal of 100 hits and 15 home runs."
