I’m training calmly with the goal of returning in June 60m catch ball training is also starting well
Nice to meet you, So Hyeong-jun

Professional baseball KT Wiz native starter So Hyun-jun (22) has returned. On the 12th, Hyun Joon joined the team spring camp held at Hyundai Motor Company’s Dream Ball Park in Gijang-gun, Busan, and began his rehabilitation training in earnest.
Although his physical condition has not yet recovered to the point where he can pitch normally, he is sweating together with his teammates and moving forward toward one goal.
Hyun Joon met with reporters at Hyundai Motor Company’s Dream Ball Park on the 14th and said, “I’ve been doing rehabilitation training alone, but exercising with my colleagues gives me a surge of energy,” and said with a bright smile, “I will do rehabilitation training step by step so that I can return as planned.” He said.
He added, “Right now, I’m focusing only on recovery and rehabilitation. As there are many variables in recovery, I’m focusing on steadily following the given schedule.”
So Hyun-Jun underwent elbow ligament joint surgery in May last year.
At the time, Hyung-Jun So was struggling with his condition after participating in the 2023 World Baseball Classic (WBC), and was out of action with a ruptured right elbow ligament.
This injury took a significant toll on So So-Jun. Participation in the 2022 Hangzhou Asian Games, which was his goal, also failed.
Although it was the worst situation, So Hyun-jun was not discouraged. He silently devoted himself to his rehabilitation training.
It was a tedious and painful training that involved repeating the same movements, but So Hyeon-jun overcame the fight against himself.
My physical condition recovered quickly. At the end of last year, we started the Stepped Pitching Program (ITP).
The club also did not spare any support. Last month, So Hyun-Jun moved to the Philippines with new pitchers including Won Sang-Hyun and Yuk Cheong-Myeong to undergo rehabilitation training.
So Hyun-Jun has finally achieved a physical condition that allows him to undergo rehabilitation training in the first team. Recently, he even trained to catch a 60m catch ball.
“Training is going well,” Soong-Jun So said. “I will improve my physical condition so that I can go up to the mound and do half-pitching at the spring camp in Okinawa, Japan, which will be held from the end of this month.”
The timing of return is also being outlined. It is expected that actual pitching will be possible as early as June.
If you go through the process of increasing the number of pitches properly, you can be a solid starting resource in the second half of the season when the team rankings are determined.
So Hyeong-jun is training with a clearer sense of purpose than anyone else.
He said, “I was disappointed that we left our team so quickly last year. It was especially disappointing watching the postseason on TV. I thought we should prepare better so that the team can win the new season.”
So Hyeong-jun is standing up again. 스포츠토토맨
