Tension was relieved and hope was filled. The Doosan Bears team, which temporarily returned from the first spring camp in Sydney, Australia, left for Miyazaki, Japan, the second spring camp training site on the 18th.
The atmosphere was different from that of the first spring camp departure. Players who have completed training focused on physical strength and tactical training in the first camp, which was held from the 26th to the 15th of last month, will play seven practice games in the second camp.
All the players included in the second camp looked confident. Doosan manager Lee Seung-yeop said, `There was a lot of competition throughout Australia's training camp. It's time to boost your sense of play in the second Miyazaki camp. I will prepare well to show good performances from the beginning of the season" he said.
The MVP of the first camp went to pitcher Hong Min-gyu and fielder Choo Jae-hyun.
In three games against the Blue and White, Choo Jae-hyun hit three hits in six at-bats, one home run, two RBIs, and two runs. Choo Jae-hyun "The director corrected the swing from the back. At the same time, the timing and balance improved."

Kim Taek-yeon, who has grown into a perfect closing pitcher in her first year of debut and won the Rookie of the Year award, is sure to be an undisputed closing pitcher in the 2025 season. He is also pulling himself up smoothly in the camp.
Kim Taek-yeon, who is preparing to wrap up the spring camp, said "Last year, our team had early difficulties on the bullpen side. It should not be repeated this year. Personally, I had a weak side in the first game. I think I need to overcome this jinx well," he said emphatically.
