“That’s right.”
KIA ‘nuclear catcher’먹튀검증 Kim Tae-gun (34), as his nickname suggests, has an active personality and finished adapting to the team early. The biggest beneficiary is Han Jun-su, a 24-year-old prospect catcher who graduated from Gwangju Dongseong High School and joined the team in the first nomination in 2018. Han Jun-su subverted expectations and steadily endures in the first team as Kim Tae-gun’s backup.
His physique is in good condition and he has a long shot power. On the 12th, he scored 3 hits in the other line while working with Yoon Young-cheol of the Busan Lotte Game. He started as the eighth hitter and displayed his batting talent by going 3-for-6 with 2 RBI, 3 runs scored, and two singles with a double.
7 hits in 26 at-bats in 14 games, batting average 0.269, 1 home run, 5 RBIs, 6 runs, OPS 0.731. On July 5, Incheon SSG matched with Yun Young-cheol, and he also scored 3 hits. On the 4th, the Gwangju Hanwha Eagles only scored 1 hit in 5 at-bats, but once again produced good results.
Apparently, Junsu Han’s focus is on defense and teamwork with the pitchers. In order to survive in the first group, you must experience this unconditionally, overcome through side effects, and prove the virtuous cycle of developing through experience again. It is more important to be a supporting actor that supports a stable defense and pitchers’ good results than a single hit.

Han Junsu is already following Kim Tae-goon and learning a lot. Director Kim Jong-guk said that Kim Tae-goon and Han Jun-su were physically vomiting and teaching him a lot. For Han Junsu, being able to see and learn from experienced catchers in the first team is a huge benefit.
Kim Tae-gun said of Han Jun-su during the three-game home game against Hanwha last week, “I train more. He has to overcome the difficult.” He did not praise Han Junsu for doing well, but rather whipped him. At that time, Kim Tae-gun meant that it was time for Han Jun-soo to do a lot of basic training necessary for a catcher. That’s actually true.
Han Junsu also stormed with sympathy. After the game on the 12th, “That is correct. Senior Taegoon also said he trained a lot during his backup days. Even now, seniors arrive on the ground quickly and quickly. He teaches mentality and ball composition rather than technique. That alone is of great help.”

To Han Junsu, Kim Tae-goon is just a ‘light’. “The batting is good, and the team atmosphere is good. In the case of ball combinations, I hear a lot of tips on how to solve them depending on the situation. If he learns from his seniors, he will get better.”
Regarding a good hit, “An opponent’s analysis is important. You should also look at the condition of the starting pitcher that day. I tried the starting pitcher in the 2nd team, and the ball is fast. He is also a senior in elementary school (Jeong Seong-jong). He has to help the team and he will do well both hitting and defending. He might make mistakes by trying to be too good, but he tries to do the same every day.”
On this day, Han Jun-su performed well at bat, but his expression was not as bright as starting pitcher Yoon Young-chul (4⅔innings, 8 hits, 3 strikeouts, 1 run, 5 runs). He said, “The first and fifth innings are the most important for a pitcher, but I was a little shaken at the end. It’s a pity that senior Noh Jin-hyuk made a mistake.”
