KBO, which was struggling over whether to punish Chairman Heo Min, finally decided to punish him for'two months of suspension of work'.
KBO revealed the reason for the disciplinary action, saying, "Chairman Heo caused social controversy through inappropriate and unnecessary conduct, which undermined the value of the league."
In June of last year, Chairman Huh was criticized for practicing pitching against Kiwoom 2nd team players, and the fact that he made similar requests to the 1st team's flagship players caused controversy.
KBO took responsibility for the suspicion of being behind Kiwoom fans who reported the video of Chairman Huh's baseball game with CCTV installed in the stadium by senior officials in Kiwoom, with a'severe warning' to the leader.
In addition, he said, "Because it is a matter that requires judgment by a judicial authority, we can open the reward and punishment committee again depending on whether or not the judicial action is taken.
Governor Jung Un-chan said in a press release, "Keewoom has abandoned the obligation of professional sports to put fans first, and broke the basic trust relationship between the club and players."
During the four-time reward and punishment sessions since the 22nd, there has been controversy over whether or not to discipline Chairman Huh, and it is said that President Jung showed a strong determination to'we must discipline'.
Kiwoom said, "It is being discussed internally and has not made an official position."
