KIA Kim Si-hoon conducted an official interview on the trade ahead of the 2025 KBO League Doosan Bears match at KIA Champions Field in Gwangju on the 29th.
KIA made a 3-3 'Big Deal' with the NC Dinos on the 28th. The main point is to exchange outfielders and bullpen must-win groups.
KIA recruited pitcher Kim Si-hoon and Han Jae-seung and infielder Chung Hyeon-chang from NC. NC brought outfielder Choi Won-joon and Lee Woo-sung and infielder Hong Jong-pyo from KIA.
Kim Si-hoon "I thought it was someone else's story when I read the trade article. I still can't get used to it. I still don't think it's my story."
Even so, "First of all, I changed my uniform. KIA brought me because I needed it, so I want to show you the game that rewards my faith"He expressed his determination.
As for the reason for the slight slowdown this year, he drew the line that it was his fault.
Kim Si-hoon "Everyone says that there was accumulation of fatigue while going back and forth in the middle of the selection last year, but it seems like an excuse." I didn't prepare well, so I got good grades. The new team is preparing to return to a different appearance and the way they originally knew it,' he vowed.
NC manager Lee Ho-joon also sincerely supported Kim Si-hoon.
Kim Si-hoon "The director needed you a lot at the KIA. It's a waste, but he said, 'I hope I can go to a team that needs you more and get a lot of opportunities and do well.'"
Immediately after the trade, Na Sung-bum and Han Jun-su were contacted immediately. Kim Si-hoon slightly revealed that `I hope the common words help me a lot because it's hard for the bullpen.'
Kim Si-hoon is a native of Masan.
Kim Si-hoon "I've never left Masan since I was in school. He was also in NC for eight years. What happened since joining the team passed like a picture, and I think emotions came up from there."
I'm determined to play wherever the team wants. Kim Si-hoon "I've worked in many positions. Therefore, if the team is needed, I want to prepare well and show good performance accordingly."
He is now a teammate of Kia, which he felt was a strong team.
Kim Si-hoon "I faced KIA when I started last year, but it wasn't easy." I'm glad I didn't face that lineup. I think KIA was a team where the fans were very passionate and the pressure on the field was different," he recalled.
