Choo Shin-soo (born 1982), the captain of this season’s SSG Landers, is preparing for the final season of his career. Choo announced his retirement from active duty after this season. In December last year, he said he would donate his contract of minimum salary (30 million won) and full salary in the KBO League. He also served as the captain of his team in the final season.

As the leader of the SSG team, I promised to do my best until the end.

Choo joined the Seattle Mariners of the U.S. Major League in 2001 as a high school graduate. He has a batting average of 275, 218 homers, 782 RBIs, 961 runs scored and 157 stolen bases in 16 seasons in the Major League.

He became the first Asian player to hit .300, 20 homers and 20 steals (2009). He also recorded cycling hits (2015) and achieved 20 homers and 20 steals three times (2009, 2010 and 2013).

He was selected as a Major League All-Star in the 2018 season and has the most home runs and 782 RBIs by Asian batters.

When he moved to the Texas Rangers as an FA in 2014, he recorded the highest amount of Korean major leaguers at the time with seven years and 130 million dollars.

Choo returned to the KBO League ahead of the 2021 season. He has 49 home runs, 324 hits, and an on-base percentage of .391 during the three seasons in Korea. He was also the leading player in SSG’s overall victory in the 2022 season.

He is about to finish his professional career after 24 years, which he started in 2001.

“It’s all about the last one. I’ve been to my last spring camp and I’m playing my last exhibition game. I haven’t played in exhibition games to control my condition yet.

Choo held two consecutive exhibition games with Lotte players in his hometown of Busan. He gave lots of advice to juniors in his hometown. He talked with Lotte captain Jeon Joon-woo for a long time.

He seemed to have a lot to say to his juniors until the end of the retirement season. He is telling all the stories about baseball to his juniors so that he can leave without any regrets.

Choo Shin-soo, who announced his retirement this season, is preparing for a beautiful farewell like Park Chan-ho and Lee Dae-ho.
