Hwang Sung-bin was batting .324 (36 hits in 111 at-bats) with 12 RBIs, 18 runs, and 10 steals in 28 games, and there were more concerns, especially as the flow of the game changed from him to Lotte.
But now the concern has disappeared with the emergence of 'alternative evil'. This is because Jang Doo-sung is active in the top hitter position without 'Mahwang'.
Jang Doo-sung started as the No. 1 center fielder in the home game against the LG Twins at Sajik Stadium in Busan on the 22nd and led his team to an 11-4 victory with one hit, three RBIs, one walk, and one stolen base in three at-bats. He drew a walk in the top of the first inning and immediately stole the second base to create a chance to score, and succeeded in scoring in the first with Jeon Jun-woo's hit, and at the bottom of the third inning, he became the main character of the come-from-behind hit with a clean two-run heavy hit with a bases loaded with two outs that was tied 3-3. In the bottom of the seventh inning with a 7-4 and 3-point difference, he also recorded valuable additional RBIs with a sacrifice fly to right field.
There were also dizzying moments. Lotte added three points and hit LG Kim Yoo-young's 143km fastball in the bottom of the eighth inning with two outs and runners on first and second bases. The ball flew to the head and the ballpark was shocked if it was a head shot. Jang Doo-sung also seemed to fall down as soon as he was hit and complain of great pain. However, he got up soon and made a gesture that he was okay and ran to first base. The replay of the broadcast confirms that it was hit by the shoulder, not the head.
Thanks to Jang Doo-sung's performance, Lotte defeated No. 1 LG 11-4 and finished the three consecutive games with one win, one draw and one loss. Lotte became the sole runner-up and narrowed the gap with LG to two games again.
Jang Doo-sung has a batting average of 330 (29 hits in 88 at-bats) with 14 RBIs, 19 runs and seven steals this season. After Hwang Sung-bin was injured, he started against KT Wiz on the 10th, but was the eighth hitter at the time. Since starting, he has batted .381 (16 hits in 42 at-bats) with seven RBIs, seven runs and five steals in 11 games. And he has a batting average of 360 (nine hits in 25 at-bats) with five RBIs, four runs and two steals in six games since Game 1 of the doubleheader against the Samsung Lions on the 17th. He has continued to play well in important top hitter positions.

"I'm happy, but I'm nervous about something". "People around me told me to enjoy it because I'm doing well, but I don't know when I'll fall again, so I'm just thinking that I'll endure every day."
Is there a sense of urgency to seize the opportunity. Jang Doo-sung said that he is focusing on playing rather than survival, saying, `I had a little bit of that, but once I go into the game, I'm going to do what I can.'
The reason why the hit improved is because he is constantly changing. Chang Doo-sung "There have been some revisions since last year. I think it's working well to connect the modifications I made with coach Lim Hoon and Lee Sung-gon since last year to the offseason and to connect the speed from the spring camp."
The absence of Hwang Sung-bin became an opportunity for Jang Doo-sung. As expected, he knows well. "Chances have not always come easily to me, and they have come hard. I'm always trying to do my best because I have to do my best to have the next opportunity for me"I valued this opportunity.
I've received a lot of advice from Hwang Sung-bin. That's why I'm still talking on the phone and keeping in touch. Jang Doo-sung once said, "When Sungbin was No. 1, I went out as No. 9, and since the type is similar, how the opposing pitcher will come in is similar, so if Sungbin hits first, I think he will come in like this, so I think it would be good to do it like this." He gave me advice on my back,' he said. "'He gave me a lot of advice originally, but he said that it would be good to do it as it is now because he is doing so well, and he asked me to play with him when I came back.'"
Regarding the dizzying scene in the eighth inning, "It was okay." Jang Doo-sung laughed and said, "(I was surprised, but I thought I was going up the on-base percentage and ran out thankfully,' and added, "'It was okay because I was close to (Kim) Yoo-young and knew that the ball was missing.'
When I put my goal in, I became serious again. "I'm going to be a certain player." Rather than having a few hits, I'm not satisfied with every day, but I'll do my best not to fall off again" expressed his determination.
