"How can he play baseball like that? That thought..."

Ahn Hyun-min, who has become the hottest man in the KBO league beyond KT Wiz. I can't think of a word to describe the current momentum and popularity except for the word 's syndrome'. On the spot, "Unless it's a great crisis that you really have to play, Ahn Hyun-min might as well just skip it and move on."He has become a player who puts great pressure on his opponent to the point where people say "

He is likely to fill the regular at-bat this week, and if that happens, he will be ranked first in batting average, on-base percentage, and long hit rate. There are signs that the status will be elevated from candidate for Rookie of the Year to MVP.




an enormous amount of muscle that has been built while serving in the Army. Powerful batting from there. But even the sophistication of not swinging well. Even the feet are fast with a large build. It is no exaggeration to say that you have everything you need as a batter.

That's why the nicknames of characters similar to the U.S. Major League are all attached. Not one, but several players are being mixed. Aaron Judge of South Korea (New York Yankees), Giancarlo Stanton of South Korea (New York Yankees), and Mike Trout of South Korea (LA Angels). All three of them are outfielders who bat like monsters.

There are so many, so it would be good to unify them in one. The best thing is, what you want. That way, I feel good from the standpoint of listening. Ahn Hyun-min also knows that he is compared to these players. Ahn Hyun-min was embarrassed and laughed, `It's all good if you call me a nickname, but it's embarrassing for me to decide something.' He recently appeared on a club broadcast and earned the nickname 'Kerrilla'. 'All similar nicknames of resolutions' Gorilla, Terminator, Muscle Man, etc. Katie and the gorilla were chosen.




Go back, asking if it's best to be called 'Who in Korea?' Ahn Hyun-min said without hesitation, `If I had to choose from the three players, Trout.' He liked "from an early age. All three players have different styles, and among them, I like Trout style. Judge, Stanton joked, "It's not too easy guys."

"'So is Trout worth a shoulder?' he went on the attack. "That's not it. I think Trout is really good at baseball. On the contrary, Judge and Stanton have this difference in how they hit the ball like that." As Ahn Hyun-min explained, Judge and Stanton are players whose long balls are trademarked with power. Trout is an all-around beauty who is also good at defense. Ahn Hyun-min is also an expression of his willingness to be recognized as a player who plays baseball better than a player who plays so well.

In Japan's closing camp last winter and Australia's spring camp earlier this year, there were many questions about whether he could play outfield in the first-team game. As a former catcher, the defense was poor. But I trained more in defense than playing the bat. There is a sense of security now. Since he has strong shoulders, he also presents Bodhisattva. Ahn Hyun-min himself wants to improve in a year. He's been comforting me and giving me confidence, so I'm getting used to it" he said. He is Ahn Hyun-min, who is becoming the `Trout of Korea.'
