And recently, he revealed his position on the controversy over the'retirement tour' that has heated the Internet.

He said he would calmly decline, saying he understood all the fans' pros and cons.

[Park Yong-taek/LG nominated hitter: After 11 years of (seeing) comments, I have seen all of the most common comments. (Retirement Tour) I am honored and grateful that the story came out... .]

However, I asked for consideration for junior players who may be in a similar situation.

[Park Yong-taek/LG nominated hitter: There are some juniors who are'superstars', and even when such players retire, this atmosphere shouldn't be created.]

He said that the end of his 19 year professional career is not a retirement tour, but a championship. Revealed.

[Park Yong-taek/LG designated hitter: I really want to do a winning tour rather than a retirement tour. The cool retirement ceremony was just winning the Korean series and receiving a rinse. That is the retirement ceremony I think of.]

Park Yong-taek, who is registered in the 1st group tomorrow, is going to go to the KIA immediately.
