Jang Hyun-sik, who became an LG Twins man with a four-year guarantee of 5.2 billion won, meets LG fans five days after wearing a glossy jumper.
LG's annual "Love Giving Day" is held on weekends, and Jang Hyun-sik attends it.
"Love Giving Day" is a charity event with fans and athletes that has been held since 2017, and is held every year to thank fans for their support for a season and to practice love and sharing together.
"2024 Love Giving Day" will be held at Jamsil Stadium on the 16th. Last year, when it won the title, it was held at Kyung Hee University's Seoul Campus Peace Hall due to weather conditions, but this time it will be held in November, and the event will be held at Jamsil Stadium to celebrate the occasion with many fans.스포츠토토
Twelve members of the 2025 rookie squad and 22 players including Kim Hyun-soo, Park Hae-min, Oh Ji-hwan, Moon Sung-joo and Son Joo-young will participate in the event. There were 22 players in the original plan, but one more was added. It is Jang Hyun-sik.
Jang Hyun-sik signed a four-year contract with LG for a total of 5.2 billion won (1.6 billion won in down payment, 3.6 billion won in annual salary) on the 11th. A native of Seoul High School, he joined the NC Dinos in the first ninth round in 2013, and was traded to KIA in the 2020 season, playing as a must-win team. Jang Hyun-sik, who was also the hold king in 2021 with 34 holds, led the KIA Tigers to the regular league title with a good performance of 5 wins, 4 losses, 16 holds, and an ERA of 3.94, in 75 games this season, and in the Korean Series, he took the mound in the foreground until Game 5 and lifted the Korean Series trophy with a stable pitching of one hold and zero ERA.
Jang Hyun-sik's stock price jumped as Kim Won-joong and Koo Seung-min remained at Lotte, and LG was able to become a winner in the competition by guaranteeing a total of 5.2 billion won. Jang Hyun-sik, a native of Seoul High School, has lived in Changwon and Gwangju for 12 years, but will be able to play for his hometown team for the first time in 13 years.
LG eventually finished the season in third place to face difficulties in the bullpen, and felt the need to strengthen the bullpen, and participated in a scramble to win. Jang Hyun-sik will play in the must-win group with Kim Jin-sung, helping promising players grow.
After signing the contract, Jang Hyun-sik said, "I thank the LG Twins for giving me a good opportunity. I sincerely thank the KIA and NC fans for their love and support," adding, "I will do my best to be loved by LG Twins fans in the future. I will also do my best to contribute to producing the best performance with the good seniors and juniors of the LG Twins."
Fortunately, before the new year, I had the opportunity to have my first meeting with LG fans in a good mood.
The event will run from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. Before the main event, you can freely enjoy stamp mission programs and various auxiliary events with rookie players at the Jamsil Baseball Stadium ground. Starting with the opening performance at 2 p.m., the event will feature recreation, talk concerts, rookie team performances, cheerleading performances, and colorful fireworks with fans and participating players, and the entire event will be concluded with a signing event by the participating players. All profits from the sale will be donated to local welfare organizations in Songpa-gu. In addition, "2024 Love Giving Day" will be broadcast live on the LG Twins YouTube channel for fans who cannot be with them at the site.
