Doosan Bears and Kiwoom Heroes were shunned in the All-Star fan vote for their "crime of not being able to play baseball". KT Wiz suffered two consecutive years in the absence of 'Superstar'.

KBO announced the '2025 KBO All-Star Game Betts 12' on the 23rd. Hanwha closer Kim Seo-hyun ranked No. 1 in fan voting. Doosan Kiwoom KT has not produced any All-Stars.

Doosan suffered humiliation for the first time in three years since 2022, and Kiwoom for the first time in 12 years since 2013. This season, the two teams fell to ninth and 10th, failing to gain popularity. KT has risen to a strong team that steadily advances into autumn baseball, but it is regrettable that it lacks top star players who can represent the league.




Doosan showed the lowest number of votes in as many as seven of the 12 positions.

At least, Yang Eui-ji in the catcher's division was worth holding out his business card. Yang Eui-ji ranked first by winning 155 votes in the team's vote. There was a big difference in the fan vote. Samsung's Kang Min-ho swept about 1.6 million votes. Yang Eui-ji received only about 650,000 votes, less than half. Kang Min-ho also did not lose much of his vote with 139 votes. Kang Min-ho, who scored 43.41 points overall, surpassed Yang Eui-ji (26.06 points).

Kiwoom was last in eight categories. Kiwoom has traditionally owned one superstar enough to be called the Major League Military Academy, but its reputation was cut off when Kim Hye-sung left. Kang Jung-ho, Park Byung-ho, Kim Ha-sung, Lee Jung-hoo, and Kim Hye-sung were regular customers of the All-Star Game, but they did not receive an invitation for the first time since 2013.




KT had relatively weak ticket power in Dream All Star. The presence was minimal amid the gap between Lotte, which was a sensation this season, and Samsung, which had the most spectators.

Park Young-hyun, who finishes the national team, and Ahn Hyun-min, a strong candidate for the Rookie of the Year award, are a waste.

Park Young-hyun was overwhelmingly No. 1 with 113 votes cast by the team. Cho Byung-hyun (SSG) got 82 votes, Kim Taek-yeon (68 votes), Kim Won-joong (63 votes), and Lee Ho-sung (26 votes).




Park Young-hyun was no match for Kim Won-joong in the fan vote. Kim Won-joong took about 1.51 million votes. Park Young-hyun had about 240,000 votes.

Ahn Hyun-min fell behind Jeon Joon-woo (Lotte) in the designated hitter category. In the team vote, Ahn Hyun-min ranked first with 221 votes. Jeon had 71 votes. As expected, Lotte won the fan vote by a landslide. Jeon Joon-woo received about 1.48 million votes and Ahn Hyun-min received about 580,000.
