Ha Hyun-seung Goes to Kiwoom as Overall No. 1 Pick in Rookie Draft

Ha Hyun-seung, a key player in winning the U-18 Asian Championship, has joined the Kiwoom Heroes as the overall number one pick in the rookie draft, as expected.

[We select the Kiwoom Heroes. Round 1, overall number 1, Busan High School pitcher and fielder Ha Hyun-seung.]

Ha, who was drafted by Kiwoom with the top overall pick, honestly expressed his hope to surpass the all-time record of 1 billion won in signing bonuses.

[Ha Hyun-seung / Busan High School pitcher and fielder: Since I think a signing bonus is an amount of money that proves my value, if I've received such a good evaluation, I definitely want to break (the record).]

The "scene stealer" of yesterday (the 21st) was the father of pitcher Park Geun-seo, who was drafted 4th overall by the Lotte Giants.

Instead of a formal acceptance speech, his overwhelming joy was expressed through a hearty verse of a song that made everyone laugh.
