It is a trade in which pitchers Kim Si-hoon, Han Jae-seung, and infielder Chung Hyeon-chang are given to the KIA Tigers and outfielders Choi Won-joon, Lee Woo-sung, and infielder Hong Jong-pyo are recruited.
The trade is a strategic decision to strengthen the team's power now and in the future, especially focusing on strengthening the center field position and strengthening the team's batting power.
Lim Sun-nam, head of the NC Dinos, said "This trade is expected to serve as an opportunity to simultaneously solve the reinforcement of center field and the strengthening of long-range power, which the team has been agonizing over. Choi Won-joon is a player with excellent balance in all aspects, including hitting, defense, and running base, and I think it will be a great boost to the team's power. Lee Woo-sung is a batter with long-shot ability and is a resource that will supplement his long-shot power in the team's batting lineup. Hong Jong-pyo is an all-weather infielder with multiple infield positions, and he is the right person to make the future of the infield more solid. I sincerely thank Kim Si-hoon, Han Jae-seung and Chung Hyeon-chang for their dedication to the team, and I sincerely support the new challenges and future of the three players."
Choi Won-joon, Lee Woo-sung and Hong Jong-pyo will join the team on Tuesday.
