The 23-year-old left-handed pitcher, who finally broke the curse with a victory in the Korean Series, vowed to fans 

There is a player called Jeong Ga-eul in the Doosan Bears. It is Jung Soo-bin. It is a nickname given because he played well in the postseason.

LG Twins also have a new player. It is Kim Yoon-sik, a left-handed pitcher. He is good in the second half. He had eight wins, five losses and an earned run average of 3.31 last year, and served as Korea's ace player with five wins, two losses and an earned run average of 2.68. He also showed good pitching in his first postseason appearance, confirming his potential as a big game pitcher. In the third playoff game, he had a showdown with Kiwoom Heroes ace Ahn Woo-jin, and pitched well with three hits, four walks, and one run during five ⅔ innings, impressing the pitcher. 스포츠토토사이트

Kim Yun-sik, who took the starting position based on his performance last year, was gradually recognized for his skills as he was also selected for the WBC national team.

Then, Kim revealed his ambition. He changed his jersey number ahead of this season. Kim, who had worn No. 57 when joining the team, requested No. 47. The number 47 is the number that commentator Sanghoon Lee, LG's only pitcher with 20 wins, put on. It can be said that the number represents LG's ace left hand. However, it was also a "curse's number." After Sanghoon Lee, left-handed pitchers such as Seo Seung-hwa, Cho Yoon-joon and Bong Jung-geun wore No. 47, but they were unsuccessful. When Lee returned to LG's coach, he labeled himself as "Cursed No. 47." No player has marked No. 47 times since Lee.

Kim Yun-sik, who graduated from Gwangju Jinheung High School and joined LG as the third choice in the second round in 2020, wanted to wear No. 47, but the club gave up No. 57 to Kim until a rookie wore No. 47. Kim is finally taking the mound this season in his fourth year.

Is it because of the curse word? Kim Yoon-sik's early days were not good. He couldn't perform well at the WBC, and his pitching continued jaggedly in the early part of the season even after returning home. His speed did not rise, and as a result, he lacked the sharpness of his changeup, which is his main weapon. When he became a losing pitcher due to poor performance of 12 hits and seven runs in five innings against Kiwoom on June 8, manager Yeom Kyung-yeop, who had watched him for two months, made a decision to send him to the second team. In 11 games, he had Kim Yun-sik do his best in the second team. He made sure that he would come back in the latter half of the season, not immediately. And Yeom was right to judge.

Kim Yun-sik, who returned to the game in the second half of the year, has changed. Kim Yun-sik, who returned to the game against Hanwha on Sept. 2, passed the game by allowing six hits and one run in five innings. He became a winning pitcher in the game against KIA on Sept. 8 by allowing seven hits and one run in five innings, and added to the victory against Hanwha on Sept. 15. He became a winning pitcher again in the game against KT on Sept. 27 by allowing two hits and no runs in five innings. After returning to the game in the second half of the year, he pitched in six games (five starts) and displayed stable performance with three wins and three losses with an earned run average (ERA) of 2.13. His speed did not rise as high as expected, but he clearly regained stability. Kim Yun-sik, who was selected as the fourth starting pitcher of the Korean Series, proved that he is a "big game pitcher." He became the winning pitcher by pitching three hits, one walk, three strikeouts and one run during five ⅔ in Game 4 of the Korean Series against the KT Wiz at KT Wiz Park in Suwon on Nov. 11. It was the first victory for LG's starting pitcher of the Korean Series.

He proved that he is a pitcher who can continue the tradition of left-handed ace by wearing No. 47. Kim Yun-sik, however, seems not to have enough time to wear No. 47. At the 2023 Love Giving Festival with Championship held at Kyung Hee University's Seoul Campus on the 2nd, Kim Yun-sik expressed his honest feelings when a fan asked, "I think you broke 47 curses. To be honest, I don't think you broke the jinx."

"There is a modifier that says I am good at baseball only in fall, but honestly, it's not bad," Kim said. "If I do well in fall every year, I will never surpass my Sanghoon Lee that I respect," Kim said. "When the next season starts, I will think of fall as the starting pitcher who can perform full-time well." Will he be able to become a starting pitcher next season? I wonder if he will be able to play the 2024 season when he can no longer remember the "Curse of 47."
