Batting .223 with five home runs in his worst season under manager Kim Tae-hyung, vows to rebound

Lotte's Han Dong-hee being interviewed by the press.

.223 (71-for-319), five home runs, 32 RBIs, and an OPS of 0.583.

That's the 2023 season report card for Han Dong-hee, 24, who was touted as a candidate to become one of the top young hitters in the KBO beyond the Lotte Giants.

After one of the toughest seasons since his rookie year, Han is hoping for a breakout season in 2024 with new manager Kim Tae-hyung (55).

"It was very difficult this year, but I think I can do better in the future than this year," said Han Dong-hee at the Gimhae Sangdong Stadium on the 25th, the day of Lotte's final training session. I've learned a lot."

He spends the winter with Lee Dae-ho (41), a former Gyeongnam High School captain who says he learned to think more about baseball and control his mind.

Lee Dae-ho, who is living a second life as a broadcaster after retirement, hasn't let go of baseball despite his busy schedule.

"He called me first and asked me to train with him this winter," Han Dong-hee said. "When the time comes, he'll go overseas for a month or so, or we'll train in Busan."

She offered to tutor her junior, 카지노사이트랭크 who had been in a slump all season.

Han Dong-hee said, "I'm sorry that (I) should have done better after you retired. He always taught me a lot, and he knows me well and our styles are similar. That's why I want to follow you more," she said.

The revival of Han Dong-hee is a must for Lotte, which has struggled with a lack of long-hitting power this season.

That's why coach Kim Tae-hyung stroked Han's cheek while shaking hands with the entire team.

"I'm sure she's been struggling, but if she thinks, 'I'll do better next year than this year,' I think she'll do well," Kim said.

With an embarrassed smile, Han Dong-hee said, "I think he meant to tell me to do better," and added, "He's such a great coach that I wanted to do it with him. I feel like I can learn more and become stronger."

When Kim took the microphone as a commentator this year, she expressed her affection for Han Dong-hee and her excitement and regret.

"I often greeted her when she was a commentator," Han Dong-hee said, adding that she was more excited than nervous about Kim Tae-hyung. 고스톱
