It happened on the 4th at the place where the final roster for the Korean national team was announced for the World Baseball Classic (WBC). When one of the reporters in attendance asked why no Hanwha players were selected, coach Lee Kang-cheol smiled somewhat puzzled and turned the microphone to Technical Committee Chairman Cho Beom-hyun. Chairman Cho replied, “I am sorry that I was unintentionally left out because I was selecting (the national team’s power) as the best.”

Regarding the laughter flowing from all over the place during the questions and answers, there was a question among baseball fans, ‘Isn’t it mocking a specific team?’, but it did not spread to a bigger controversy. Maybe it’s because Hanwha fans, who are called ‘bodhisattva’, generously cheered for the team’s poor performance and passed it over with self-deprecation. 바카라
