Lotte Giants reported on the 19th that Han Dong-hee was removed from the first team, and also conveyed that it is unlikely that he will be called up again until he joins the Sangmu Army in the future. Earlier, LG also expressed its intention to continue its practical experience in the second division without the registration of Lee Jae-won, who is about to join the Sangmu Army.

The two, who were considered to be able to do more than 30 home runs if the full-time opportunity was guaranteed, now have the task of using joining the military as an opportunity. Although you can expect to be able to open your eyes to hitting through military service as you are still young, it is true that there is a lot of regret as you were loved by fans.

The two players share the common denominator of joining the team. Han Dong-hee of Gyeongnam High School was always mentioned as the most powerful infielder in high school baseball in 2017, and Lee Jae-won of Seoul High School, who was evaluated as ahead of Kang Baek-ho (KT), was also a slugger who showed outstanding clutch ability. So, both were quickly called out in the draft as the preferred pick from their hometown (Han Dong-hee) and the second round pick (Lee Jae-won). In addition, Gyeongnam High School and Seoul High School met in the final round of the 2017 Presidential Cup, where future professional baseball stars embroidered their ground.

The two seemed to have a burst of potential in the first division at one point. Han Dong-hee had a batting average of .300 and a double-digit home run, and Lee Jae-won had a double-digit home run while using Jamsil as his home stadium. Based on this, he tried to enter the Hangzhou Asian Games entry, but failed to achieve that dream due to injury and sluggishness.

Even after deciding to join the military, Han Dong-hee worked hard to revive Kang by attending Kang Jung-ho Academy with the support of his senior Lee Dae-ho. However, he had to swallow his regret as he left the battlefield due to an internal oblique muscle injury before seeing any results. Lee Jae-won also tried to relieve his regret that he did not make the entry into the Korean Series, but he is now in a position to wait and see after joining the military.

There is no need to raise objection to their potential and power. Someday, they will be able to play full-time and have the power to record more than 30 home runs based on that. Ahead of joining the military in June, they will be given the task of establishing a "national batting lineup" in the Futures League for the time being.

On the day the two are discharged from the military, I look forward to the day when they will be more mature than now and play in the All-Star Game and postseason.
