Song Sung-moon was honored with the third baseman's award at the '2025 KBO Golden Glove Awards' held at Lotte Hotel World in Jamsil, Seoul on the 9th. Song Sung-moon received 268 out of 316 valid votes, winning 84.8% of the vote.
Hanwha Noh Si-hwan followed with 40 votes, LG Moon Bo-kyung got 6 votes, NC Kim Hwi-jip got 1 vote, and KT Huh Kyung-min got 1 vote.
Last year, he couldn't even dream of winning the award because he was blocked by MVP Kim Do-young (KIA Tigers), but this year was Song Seong-moon's year. Song Sung-moon remained at the top of the league for the second consecutive year, and Kim Do-young was not even nominated for the Golden Glove because he played only 30 games due to injury.
Song Sung-moon has played 111 games, batted .315 (181 hits in 574 at-bats), 26 home runs, 90 RBIs, 103 runs scored, and an OPS of .917. He ranked second in scoring and hitting, sixth in home run and slugging percentage (0.530), seventh in batting average and OPS, and tied for eighth in RBIs.
This year, he competed with Hanwha's Noh Si-hwan and LG's Moon Bo-kyung, and Song Sung-moon's overall performance was the best.
It was a year of sweeping both mourning and money. Song Sung-moon drew attention by successfully signing a multi-year non-FA contract with Kiwoom in August, the highest amount ever for fielders. It was an exceptional condition to guarantee a full annual salary of 12 billion won for six years of contract period. Among non-FA multi-year contract fielders, it was the highest ever, exceeding Samsung Lions' Koo Ja-wook's 9 billion won (5 years, 3 billion won in separate options).

Song Seong-moon said, "As a baseball player, Golden Glove dreams while imagining that everyone receives at least once. Me too, and if I get it, I think I'll feel like I'm making one of my bucket lists. I don't know what will happen, but I think it's arrogant to say that I want it to be the last Prime Minister. It's my first time winning the award, so I think I'll put the most significance on it if I get it today, and I'll try to show good performance wherever I go, whether I go to the United States or remain in Korea.
After confirming the award, Song Seong-moon said, `I never imagined receiving an award at such a good place until only two years ago. I feel dazed and nervous. I could never win this award on my own. I am grateful to the coaches and coaches of the coaches who passionately coached me, who were so lacking after joining the professional team. I couldn't say thank you to my parents because I was shy, but I'm really grateful to my mother and father for supporting me from behind so that I can only focus on baseball. I want to say I love you to my wife who took care of me so that I could focus only on baseball for a season of baseball even though I was pregnant this year and led a hard body. Soon my daughter will be born, and I'm happy to be a proud father to her. As an exemplary father, I will work hard to become a great person as a baseball player."
