The first 20 home runs in 10 consecutive seasons in the history of professional baseball. Choi Jung, the epitome of home runs, has two home runs left on the milestone.

Currently, the KBO league's record of 20 home runs in the most consecutive seasons is nine consecutive seasons. It is a record held by only two Samsung players, Park Byung-ho and Choi Jeong.

Choi Jung-eun, who has 18 homers until the 30th, will be the lone top player in this category with 20 homers for 10 consecutive seasons if she adds two more homers.




Choi Jung-eun hit the 20th home run mark for the first time in the 2010 season, recorded more than 20 home runs for four consecutive seasons until the 2013 season, and the 20 home runs streak in consecutive seasons began in the 2016 season.

Choi Jung-eun hit 46 home runs in the 2017 season following 40 home runs in the 2016 season, and achieved more than 40 home runs for two consecutive seasons, along with the record for the most home runs in a single season. From the 2018 season to the 2024 season, he hit more than 25 home runs every year, continuing the record of 20 home runs for nine consecutive seasons. In the 2016, 2017, and 2021 seasons, he won the KBO Home Run Award.

Choi Jung-eun, who achieved her first career 500th home run in the KBO league on May 13, is increasing the KBO league's career home run record with 513 home runs as of August 30.
