"First of all, I'd like to say thank you to the fans for giving me so much attention and love over the past 15 years." At the end of this season, I will decide to retire from active duty and start the second act of my life as a leader," he said.
Jung Ju-hyun continued, "It was a very difficult time to decide, but I decided (to retire) just because I can continue to wear the LG Twins uniform, not the other team uniform. To me, the LG Twins are like that," he said sincerely. 토토사이트 순위
Jung Ju-hyun said, "I was happy and honored to play with the TWINS mark on my chest for 15 years. I'm so happy and grateful to be able to wear TWINS marks on my chest in the future. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to the club officials who gave me this opportunity," he said.
Jung Ju-hyun continued, "I joined the LG Twins at the end of the dark period in 2009 and was able to grow up with good teachers for 15 years until my first win in 29 years in 2023. I met a good club and played baseball happily, and I met good seniors and learned a lot. "I met good friends, had fun playing baseball, and I was able to meet good colleagues and even win," he said, expressing his gratitude to the leader and colleagues who had been with him so far.
Finally, Chung Ju-hyun said, "Now our No. 1 LG Twins fans, for me, regardless of my performance, our LG Twins fans were No. 1. Thank you so much, and thank you again. I will greet you as a good leader in the future. Please take care of your health in the cold weather. Thank you," he said again, promising to meet next time.
After graduating from Daegu Daehyun Elementary School, Gyeongsang Middle School, and Daegu High School, Chung Ju-hyun wore the LG Twins uniform with the 36th overall pick in the fifth round in the second rookie draft in 2009. The down payment for joining is 60 million won.
Jung Ju-hyun was a one-club man for the LG Twins. Chung Ju-hyun, who played in six games in the 2009 season, eight games in the 2010 season, 15 games in the 2011 season, and 25 games in the 2012 season, respectively, began to receive more opportunities to play in the 2013 season. He played in 61 games in the 2013 season, posting a batting average of 0.217 (18 hits in 83 at-bats) with 15 RBIs, 21 runs scored, and 16 steals with a slugging percentage of 0.313 and an on-base percentage of 0.340.
After completing his military service in Sangmu, he started playing in the first division again from the 2016 season. He played in 99 games, recording a batting average of 0.222 (50 hits in 225 at-bats) with one home run, 22 RBIs, 30 runs scored, and five steals with 28 walks and a on-base percentage of 0.298.
Jung Ju-hyun wasn't even a destructive slugger, but he was loved by many LG fans for his fantastic defense and hustle-base play at times. He played the role of Altoran in the team by playing as a pinch runner and a major player.
Chung Ju-hyun, who played in 15 games in the 2017 season, was responsible for LG's main second baseman for three seasons from the 2018 season. He played in 115 games in the 2018 season with a batting average of 0.261 (79 hits in 303 at-bats) with six home runs, 31 RBIs and 18 steals with a batting average of 0.380 on-base percentage and 129 games in the 2019 season with a batting average of 0.231 (87 hits in 376 at-bats) with two home runs, 27 RBIs and 15 steals with a batting average of 0.309 on-base percentage, respectively.
Of course, there was also a period of great change. That was especially the 2020 season. In the world of professionals, competition for key players is inevitable. Jung Ju-hyun was the main second baseman at that time, but LG recruited Jung Geun-woo, a "veteran second baseman" who played for the Hanwha Eagles at the time, through the second draft after the 2019 season. Chung Ju-hyun, who was showing stable defense, was unable to avoid position competition due to the addition of Jung Geun-woo. Still, at that time, Jung Joo-hyun expressed his strong determination, saying that he was in a position competition with an idol he respected. At the end of November 2019, Jeong Ju-hyun, whom I met at the briquette volunteer site, said, "Regardless of whether I was the main player or not, (Jeong) Geun-woo was my idol. It's an honor to compete with a senior whom I really respect. There are so many things I need to learn from (Jeong) Geun-woo. "I think it will be an opportunity for me to grow as well," he said. It was Jeong Ju-hyun, who was always humble and open. And he played 134 career-high games in the 2020 season with a batting average of 0.247 (81 hits in 328 at-bats) with four home runs, 30 RBIs and eight stolen bases with a batting average of 0.338 on-base percentage of 0.312.
Since then, Chung Ju-hyun, who has played 73 games in the 2021 season with a batting average of 0.238 (43 hits in 181 at-bats) with three home runs, 10 RBIs and three steals, has not played a single game on the first team stage in the 2022 season. At that time, LG's Seo Kun-chang, who was recruited through a trade with foreign hitter Rio Ruiz, was in charge of the second base position, and Chung Ju-hyun did not have a chance. Chung Ju-hyun, who did, burned the last flame of the 2023 season. With Yeom Kyung-yeop's new appointment, he played a fruitful role as a backup infielder. He devoted himself to the team by playing as a major player and a pinch runner. He played 89 games in the 2023 season, leaving a career-high batting average of 0.273 (24 hits in 88 at-bats) and one home run and one stolen base. And finally, he was also named in the Korean Series entry, and he was able to hold the winning ring in his arms with his teammates who had been in and out of it. In his professional career, he played in 762 games with a batting average of 0.237 (392 hits in 1,653), had 68 doubles, 12 triples, 18 homers, 153 RBIs, 260 runs scored, 68 steals, 170 walks, 383 strikeouts, and a slugging percentage of 0.325. Now, many LG fans are cheering him on as a leader.
