Lee Jung-hoo transforms into a daily instructor at Kiwoom's rookie orientation
A total of 16 people attended the rookie orientation, including first-round designated players Jeon Joon-pyo and Kim Yoon-ha, 14 rookie players and two nurturing players.
The orientation is designed to educate rookie players who have taken their first steps as professional players on the skills and basic postures they must have in their professional lives.
Starting with encouraging speeches by coach Hong Won-ki and future team coach Seol Jong-jin, education such as training, marketing, media response, and nutrition management continued.
Lee Jung-hoo, who moved to the San Francisco Giants in the Major League, also participated as a special instructor and shared his experiences in the KBO League. After completing their training, rookie players received gifts to celebrate joining the professional league.
Rookie Kim Yoon-ha said, "Through today's education, I was able to learn about the mindset and behavior that a professional player should have," adding, "I was trying to gain weight recently, but after listening to the nutrition management lecture, I think I will be able to take care of my body more systematically in the future."
In addition, he said, "I think it's a real start," and vowed, "I want to do well in my professional life based on what I learned today."
