A welcome family has returned to the Kiwoom Heroes, which is cruising at the beginning of the season. It is veteran outfielder Lee Yong-kyu.

Kiwoom made a change of entry ahead of the first game of the three consecutive weekend series against the Lotte Giants at Gocheok Sky Dome on the 12th. Outfielders Lee Yong-kyu and Joo Sung-won were called up, and Lee Joo-hyung and Bae Sang-kwon were canceled.

The notable name is Lee Yong-gyu. Lee Ju-hyung, who failed to make the opening entry due to left hamstring injury, returned and performed like a flame, but left again due to right hamstring injury. Just in time, Lee will be able to fill the vacancy. Lee also failed to make the opening entry due to an injury sustained in the second spring camp in Taiwan.

As soon as Lee Yong-kyu is called up to the first first team of the season, he will start as the No. 1 left fielder.

Coach Hong Won-ki met before the match and said, "I was reported to be feeling well. I also played two games in the second division. Due to Lee Ju-hyeong's injury and due to team circumstances, Lee Yong-kyu seems to have something to do, so I called him up."

When asked what he expected from Lee Yong-kyu and if he also wanted to play a leader role outside of baseball, Hong replied firmly, "It's baseball now." Currently, the team's central batting power is not bad, so Kiwoom's odds can go up further if Lee Yong-kyu only makes it active on base.

"I've been well prepared since the camp," Hong said of Joo Sung-won, another outfield resource. However, he joined the second team to boost his sense of play as he has good pace and fewer chances to play. There was nothing bad about him. Due to the team's direction, he joined the second team and came back up." Joo also had a chance to start the game as a No. 7-right fielder.
