Hanwha announced on the 23rd that it signed a 350 million won contract with Hwang Joon-seo (Jang Chung-go), the first overall pick and first-round pick. Hwang Joon-seo is a left-handed pitcher who is a member of the youth national team who has a lot of experience in big games and has stable control. He throws a high-quality slider and curve on a fastball in the late 140km range. His high school league record this season is 6 wins and 2 losses in 15 games with an ERA of 2.16. He was selected by Hanwha as the first overall pick in the first round of the 2024 KBO Rookie Draft held on the 14th.
Cho Dong-wook (Jang Chung-go), a second-round designated pitcher, was stamped with 150 million won. Cho Dong-wook was recognized for his high growth potential as a left-handed pitcher who played various breaking balls. Third-round pick infielder Jeong An-seok (Whimoon High School) signed for 100 million won. Like Hwang Joon-seo, Jeong An-seok, a former member of the youth national team, is evaluated as a right-handed left-handed player with both ball, water, and main skills.
In addition, Hwang Young-mook (Yeoncheon Miracle, infielder) signed a contract for 80 million won in the fourth round, Lee Ki-chang (Yushin-ho, pitcher) in the fifth round and Choi Jun-seo (Dongguk University, outfielder) in the sixth round for 60 million won, and Lee Seung-hyun (Gyeongbuk High School, catcher) in the eighth round for 40 million won. Round 7 is a trade for nomination rights. Won Jong-hyuk (in-house, pitcher), Kwon Hyun (Jang Chung-go, outfielder), and Seung Ji-hwan (Yushin-ho, pitcher), who were nominated in the 9th to 11th rounds, will receive a down payment of 30 million won side by side.
Jung Min-hyuk, head of Hanwha’s scouting team, said, “We quickly carried out the contract so that new players could focus on preparing for their first professional season. I would like to thank the players and parents for their cooperation, he said. “I sincerely look forward to growing into players who can represent the Hanwha Eagles.” 온라인경마
