Koo Ja-wook (32), the "captain" of the Samsung Lions, shook off his injury and gave the green light to play in the opening game of the regular season. He is showing a smooth recovery, as he said, "It's gotten a lot better."바카라

Koo suffered a left knee injury while attempting to steal second base in the second playoff game against the LG Twins at Daegu Samsung Lions Park on Oct. 15 last year. He was replaced while going on a business trip, and was diagnosed with micro-damage to the internal ligament at a hospital examination. He went to Japan to recover as soon as possible and underwent daily treatment to exercise for rehabilitation, but failed to play in the end.

Playing the role of mood maker in the dugout for his teammates, he had to wait and see the runner-up finish in the Korean Series. Recalling the situation at the time, he said, "Actually, if I had been replaced right after the injury, I would have recovered a little faster. However, I couldn't even think about asking for a replacement."

He added, "I thought the team's atmosphere would collapse if I was the center hitter. My teammates are playing hard, but I thought I would ruin the team's atmosphere if I signed a replacement."

Koo, who has been engaged in both injury treatment and rehabilitation training since the end of the season, did not participate in the first camp in Guam but moved to Okinawa, Japan with catcher Kang Min-ho to physicalize himself. Koo, who is currently in the rehabilitation team, has improved enough physical condition to undergo free batting and running training.

According to the club's YouTube channel "Lions TV," Koo Ja-wook met with his old teammates at Onnason Akama Ball Park, where the second Okinawa camp was set up.

Seeing Koo running towards him, Kang Myung-koo, the first-base and base running coach, welcomed him, saying, "Run, run." Lee Jong-wook, the operations and outfield coach, also said, "I heard it got better, so please meet the opening game." Koo also smiled brightly, saying, "It got a lot better." Kang Myung-koo, the coach, looked full of emotion as he said, "I almost cried." After hugging Koo, the defense coach, who is Son's grandson, also checked the condition of his left knee.

If Koo Ja-wook, the team's leading hitter and captain, recovers from his injury and returns healthy from the opening game, he is expected to be a "Cheongunmanma."
