The Korean baseball team, including manager Ryu Ji-hyun, arrived in Tokyo, Japan, the site of the showdown. The national team that left Gimpo is flying about two hours to TokyoI arrived at the international airport and immediately moved to my accommodation.
The national team will train for adaptation at Tokyo Dome on the 13th and 14th, and then play two warm-up matches against Japan at Tokyo Dome on the 15th and 16th. It is a warm-up match, but since it is a match between Korea and Japan, the resolution is different.
In an interview with reporters at Gimpo Airport, Ryu said, `I think the Korea-Japan war has a different meaning. Of course, I think we need to make good results, and if the players gain a little more confidence according to the results, I hope that good results will continue next year" he said. At the same time, he expressed his desire to never lose.
Looking at the players gives me confidence. Coach Ryu, who came to Tokyo, said "I've been with the national team for a long time, but it's the first time that the players are so happy and have such a good atmosphere. The atmosphere is at its best right now. "I think these things will come out naturally on the field``````.
Still, the pressure of more than 50,000 spectators at Tokyo Dome for away games must be overcome. Director Ryu "Tokyo Dome can accommodate 55,000 people. There were over 50,000 on APBC too. If the players overcome the atmosphere and adapt well, I think we can look forward to an important game in March next year."
The national team also participated in a large number of pitchers spraying more than 150 kilometers this time. I think the mound fight is worth a try. "It's not an easy ball to hit when our players go in with strength. I think it's important how well the batters respond because Japanese pitchers are goodDirector Ryu "If we fight well against Japan at Tokyo Dome, I think this experience will be of great help to grow next year. I wish I could find confidence here and go back"
Meanwhile, many fans did not appear at Haneda Airport, but they were often spotted getting autographs from their favorite players. When director Ryu left the arrival hall, he was asked for an autograph by a Japanese female fan who recognized him, and immediately signed and took pictures.
