Doosan announced that it had signed a contract with Yang Eui-ji for a total of 15.2 billion won over 6 years.
Yang Eui-ji, who moved to NC for a total of 12.5 billion won in 2018 after playing for Doosan, was courted by several clubs while newly acquiring FA qualifications, and chose Doosan, which offered the highest amount ever, 15.2 billion won.

Hanwha, who left free agent Jang Si-hwan, is an infielder to fill the void of main shortstop Ha Joo-seok, who is facing a drunk driving discipline. We are also weighing the recruitment of free agents.
