"Fan gave me twin dolls as a gift" LG Choi Chae-heung, who changed his uniform this season, said with a bright face ahead of his departure.
On the morning of the 24th, the LG Twins team left for Okinawa, Japan through Incheon International Airport Terminal 1. LG's team trained for the first camp for about a month at Scottsdale Indian School Park Stadium in Arizona.
After completing the first camp, the LG team left for Okinawa, Japan, where the second camp will be held on the morning of the 24th, a day after returning home.

Choi Chae-heung, who changed his uniform from Samsung to LG ahead of this season, also left the country for the second camp.
Choi Chae-heung (30), who was born in 1995, graduated from Dongcheon Elementary School, Pohang Middle School, Sangwon High School, and Hanyang University and was first nominated by Samsung in the 2018 season. During his six seasons with Samsung, he played in 117 games and recorded 27 wins and 28 losses. He also won 11 games in the 2020 season, but his ERA in 14 games was not good at 6.30 last season.
Ahead of this season, he changed his uniform. Choi Chae-heung transferred from Samsung to LG as a compensation player for Choi Won-tae, who transferred from LG to Samsung.
The new team is also determined to be new. He has lost more than 5kg of weight, which he has maintained for more than 10 years, and is struggling. My body has become lighter, so my condition has improved."
When asked how he felt after the first camp, "He's doing well. My body is coming up well. The weight control has lightened my body a lot. I tried not to overdo it during the first camp because I was in such a good condition."

When asked how he is doing with his new colleagues, Lim Chan-kyu, the head of the pitching team, takes good care of him. I became very close to my new colleagues. I also became very close to Son Joo-young."
Asked about his goals for this season, he said, "I want to play the season without injury. His personal goal is to pitch more than 100 innings in the first team.
It is a pity that LG let Choi Won-tae go, but a new left-hander Choi Chae-heung has been created. The position has not been decided yet, but Choi Chae-heung, who has both experience in starting and bullpen at Samsung, is using a lot. If Choi Chae-heung can take charge of the target 100 innings this season, it will be a great boost to LG's mound.
