Hanwha Eagles coach Kim Kyung-moon has only one win left until his career of 1,000 wins, which he has achieved only two coaches.

Manager Kim Kyung-moon began his manager's career when he took over as manager of the Doosan Bears in the 2004 season. On April 5, 2004, he won his first game against the KIA Tigers in Jamsil, and on June 1, 2005, he won his 100th game against the Hyundai Unicorns in Jamsil.

Since then, he has won 200 games against the LG Twins in Jamsil on September 24, 2006, 300 wins against the Hanwha Eagles in Jamsil on May 22, 2008, and 400 wins against the LG Twins in Jamsil on August 8, 2009, and won his 500th victory against Hanbat Hanwha on April 23, 2011.




Manager Kim Kyung-moon accumulated more than half of his career wins by winning 512 games in a total of 960 games as Doosan manager.

Coach Kim Kyung-moon steadily built up wins again by taking over as the first head coach of the newly founded NC. He won 600 games against Masan Hanwha on June 15, 2014, 700 wins against Masan Hanwha on August 27, 2015, and 800 wins against Masan Nexen Heroes on October 5, 2016.

If head coach Kim Kyung-moon achieves 1,000 wins, this is the oldest record ever. Former head coach Kim Sung-geun was the oldest at 65 years, 8 months, and 21 days, but if head coach Kim Kyung-moon sets a record against the Lotte Giants in Daejeon on the 12th, he will break the record at 66 years, 9 months, and 11 days.

As of August 11, head coach Kim Kyung-moon has 999 wins, 34 draws, and 860 losses in a total of 1,893 games, with a winning rate of 0.537.
