Hanwha closer Kim Seo-hyun (21) took the mound in the top of the ninth inning with a 3-1 lead against Daejeon Samsung on the 5th, and kept his team's victory without losing a point. Kim Seo-hyun performed a "victory ceremony" with catcher Lee Jae-won to point at the sky by making a gun shape with his fingers after finishing the game with the left-handed Diaz. For the first time, he performed a separate ceremony to celebrate the victory with the catcher.스포츠토토

Kim Seo-hyun, who met a day later at Hanwha Life Ball Park in Daejeon on the 6th, laughed, saying, "Lee Jae-won told me to make it, so I thought about it for a week." He explained, "It means a pitcher who throws a fast ball like a gun, and it also means shooting firecrackers because Hanwha uses a lot of firecrackers."

Kim Seo-hyun, who is in his third year as a pro player, has recorded 11 saves in 20 games through Sunday, ranking first alone in this category. His earned run average is also overwhelming with 0.48. This is one of the reasons that his team jumped to the top. "I want to be a player who contributes to my team's victory. I am so proud that I am helping my team," Kim said.

Now, fans are waiting for Kim Seo-hyun to take the mound, which will mark the end of his victory. Recently, a video of a broadcasting company that filmed Kim Seo-hyun running from the bullpen at Daejeon Stadium to the mound drew much attention. Kim Seo-hyun smiled, "I'm just grateful that you did that."

Kim Seo-hyun, who is growing as a closing pitcher receiving great attention, recently encountered a batter who further stimulated his desire to win. He is Kim Do-young (KIA), the MVP of the 2024 regular season. Kim Seo-hyun threw a fastball 160.5 kilometers per hour to Kim Do-young based on the track man after one out in the bottom of the ninth inning with a 3-1 lead over the Kia Tigers in Gwangju on Sunday last week, but allowed a hit to the right as the ball rushed to the center.

"Doyoung is usually good at hitting, so I thought he would get hit if he threw a fastball," Kim Seo-hyun said. "I still wanted to have a showdown. I don't usually get hit hard by a fastball, but since it's perfect for him, I wanted to keep playing against him."

Kim Seo-hyun, who is new to the full-time season, does not care about his personal records. It is more important to play a season without being swayed. "I sleep and replenish my physical strength whenever I have time because I don't know when my physical strength will decline," he said. "My coach took good care of me and took good care of me, so I just think that I should continue to do well."
