"There is a 0% chance of winning."

Park Hae-min of the LG Twins, a candidate for the Golden Glove outfielder, did not hide his passion for the Golden Glove, even though he saw no possibility of winning the prize.

Park Hae-min attended the 2025 KBO Golden Glove Awards held at Lotte Hotel World Crystal Ballroom in Seoul on the 9th. He attended to receive the Golden Photo Award this time.

He is also on the list of outfield candidates. He played in the foreground this season and recorded a batting average of 276 and 122 hits, three homers, 43 RBIs, and 49 steals, becoming the fifth steal king of his career. But the competitors are doing well. Reyes topped the list of hits with a batting average of 326, 187 hits, 13 home runs and 107 RBIs, while Ahn Hyun-min hit a batting average of 334 and 132 hits, 22 home runs and 80 RBIs in 112 games, and became the on-base king with an on-base percentage of 0.448 to win the Rookie of the Year.

Samsung's Koo Ja-wook hit 319 with 19 home runs and 96 RBIs in 142 games.

Although there is a steal king title, Park Hae-min's batting performance is not higher than his competitors, so the possibility of winning the prize is not high.

Park Hae-min also saw his chances of winning the Golden Glove as very low. In an interview with reporters ahead of the award ceremony, Park Hae-min said when asked about the possibility of winning the award, "I think it's 0%." with no expectations.

Park Hae-min, who came as a Golden Photo Award winner, asked which photo would have been selected as the Golden Photo, saying, "I think it would be a scene where I cried (I cried after winning Game 4 of the Korean Series)," he smiled.

He said he had a 0% chance of winning the prize, but he had more goals for the Golden Glove. Park Hae-min has won several awards, but not the Golden Glove"I thought there was no chance of winning again this time, but I think it will be motivating when I see other outfielders receiving it. So I think it'll be my goal to try Golden Glove for the rest of the contract period," he said earnestly.

Among LG players, Shin Min-jae in the second baseman category is the most likely. Park Hae-min congratulated Min-jae because he changed LG's history in 31 years (the first time as a second baseman since Park Jong-ho in 1994) today. I hope Minjae gets more spotlight because he's seeing the light after going through a difficult time," he said, congratulating his junior, who is likely to win the award.

The photo of Park Hae-min's Golden Photo Award was an outfielder making a jump catch at Jamsil Stadium.
