He showed impressive performances from time to time, but looking back on the entire season, it was not enough to meet expectations. It was disappointing compared to the spotlights he received as the `strongest baseball' and `instant power``.

It is a second year season that Lotte Giants' Jung Hyun-soo must prove and challenge. Chung Hyeon-su, who met at Incheon International Airport on the 5th, said, `Exercise at the camp helped me a lot. I was surprised to be announced as the camp MVP."

Then "The ups and downs were really severe during the last season. I was under a lot of stress, too. The focus on that part resulted in good results," he added.




He went between the starting pitcher and the bullpen. There is a high possibility that he will play as a bullpen this year. Chung Hyun-soo said, `No matter what situation you take the mound, it's an important opportunity for me. I'll do my best."

As for the interest caused by the 'strongest baseball', it is appreciated that it is known a lot by fans. There are so many people who like it if they do well, and those who are disappointed if they don't do well, he said. "I'll try to like it a lot this year."

Last winter, I went to Chiba Lotte Finishing Camp with Lee Min-seok for training. Thanks to this, the camp's joint training and exchange war have already shown off extraordinary intimacy. He also appeared friendly with Chiba Lotte pitching coach who played the role of `Geunsa.'

Jeong Hyeon-su "I felt more glad and alive for no reason. I couldn't speak Japanese, so I could only say hello and body language, but I had a more lively time"I looked back.

What did you learn from Chiba Lotte. Chung Hyun-soo was taught more about the confidence of throwing on the mound, the mindset of throwing a lot of strikes, and the routine of preparing, rather than the pitching mechanism", he explained. Then "If the total experience last year is 100, wouldn't it be about 10?" I had a lot of thoughts and stress, but I want to reduce the ups and downs of having more cheeks this year," he stressed.

"The top priority is not to get hurt for a year, to do my best in my place and produce the best results, and above all, my goal this year is to be confident and not be intimidated anymore."
