Ha Joo-seok (Hanwha), who trained in the second division after signing the FA contract, was finally called by the first division.

Ha Joo-seok joined the first team ahead of the Doosan Bears match in the 2025 KBO League exhibition game at Cheongju Stadium on the 9th.

Hanwha manager Kim Kyung-moon said "Today, Ha Joo-seok is coming. I've worked hard so far. That's why I'm going to watch the exhibition game by ordering shortstop."




Ha Joo-seok applied for FA after the 2024 season.

But the market's response was cold. Ha Joo-seok's position narrowed as Hanwha, the original team, recruited shortstop Shim Woo-joon for a total of 5 billion won.

Other than Hanwha, no team appeared to take Ha Joo-seok.




Ha Joo-seok eventually signed a shabby contract with his former team Hanwha with a guarantee of 90 million won per year and 20 million won in incentives.

Ha Joo-seok has prepared steadily for the season in the second division.

In the Blue and White match held at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 5th, he played as a shortstop for the Futures team and made an impression.




Coach Kim Kyung-moon intends to use Ha Joo-seok as a shortstop for now.

Manager Kim Kyung-moon said, `Chan is a shortstop. Rather, Lee Do-yoon has seen the second baseman, saying, "Ha Joo-seok's position change is not immediately considered."

Meanwhile, Moon Hyun-bin, who complained of hamstring pain during the game on the 8th, is not a major injury.

Manager Kim Kyung-moon said, `I excluded it from today's game. He is careful about his running play, but he has done all the batting and defense training. You need to take two to three days off because running and running in practice are different. Usually, if your hamstring becomes a chronic disease, you have to rest for two weeks, but it's a relief."
