Kim Kwang-hyeon, who became a free agent after recording a two-point ERA with 10 wins and 7 losses for two years in St. Louis, seemed likely to remain in the major leagues this season as well.
However, as the labor-management negotiations reached catastrophe, they could not even negotiate an FA, and while staying in Korea, they were constantly courted by their former team, SSG, and eventually chose to return.
[Kim Gwang-hyun / SSG pitcher: (Chu) Shin-soo-hyung did the same, and (Choi) Jeong-hyung also called almost once a month, but it sounded a bit like anti-threatening (?).
The hyungs tricked me by saying that this is their last chance (?) (The return) is a choice that I will never regret.]
Kim Kwang-hyun, who signed a 4 year 15.1 billion won contract, 100 million won more than Lotte Lee Dae-ho’s all-time high, was SK. Wearing the SSG jersey with the number 29 engraved on it, I was moved with emotion.
[Kim Kwang-hyun / SSG Pitcher: This is my first time wearing a Landers uniform, but I feel a little bit new.
I've gained some weight for two years]
Kim Kwang-hyun promised to return the love he received from his fans in a touching way.
[Kim Kwang-hyun / SSG Pitcher: I will try my best to become a Kim Kwang-hyun who does not really disappoint.]
