Kang Sang-jae and Kim Jong-kyu, who will be released as FA, will actively catch them!

Wonju DB manager Kim Ju-seong said this. The DB, which ranked first in the regular league, was unfortunately eliminated by Busan KCC in the semifinal playoff with one win and three losses.

However, DB was the perfect winner of the regular league. It gave a powerful twist that no one expected.

Seoul SK and KCC, which were considered "super teams" before the season, were expected to be on a roll in the regular season. However, DB recruited Didrick Lawson and Ethan Albano did a great job. With Kang Sang-jae and Kim Jong-kyu at the center, it has become a strong "type" for the regular season. Although elimination from the semifinals is unfortunate, DB has achieved better-than-expected results this season.

When asked about his plans for the next season right after Game 4 on the 21st, coach Kim Joo-sung said, "I think we need to focus on growing younger players. I think we need to rebuild."

This has led to misunderstandings. At the end of this season, key players will be released as free agents. Kang Sang-jae, who is considered the biggest fish, Kim Jong-kyu and Choi Seung-wook will all become free agents.

Head coach Sono Lee Ki-wan and Coach Kim Seung-ki also watched in person the second round match between KCC and DB. Sono announced that he would recruit a large-scale FA this summer. "I came here to see the players who will be released as FA," Kim said.

There are many speculations about Kim's remarks on rebuilding. Questions have arisen as to whether the DB changed its direction to rebuilding where young players are being nurtured rather than catching FA players such as Kang Sang-jae, Kim Jong-gyu, and Choi Seung-wook this summer. Some media outlets reported.

However, it is not true.

Kim, who was eliminated from the semifinals at the time, talked about his backup team's disappointment in a short-term match of the semifinals. As part of that, he mentioned "rebuilding," which means that young players such as Park In-woong, Kim Hoon, Park Seung-jae, and Lee Yong-woo need to grow.

In fact, rebuilding means changing teams around new players. In other words, it can be misleading.

While laughing during a telephone conversation on Sunday, Kim said, "The expression is wrong in the interview. Existing FA must be caught. We need to discuss that with the team closely. We are still working on it." What he said in the interview at the time was not that he would raise young players instead of existing FA, but that the team needed to grow young players. He emphasized harmony with existing key players."
