Former coach Chung Myung-won (60), who is called the "Legend of Incheon Baseball" after playing for the Pacific Dolphins and Hyundai Unicorns in the past, cheerfully expressed his disappointment toward his former colleague and LG Twins manager Yeom Kyung-yeop (58), his "retirement motivation," causing the audience to laugh.

Former coach Chung Myung-won appeared in a video released by YouTube channel "Stocking" on the 10th with Cho Woong-cheon (55), Doosan Bears coach who worked together in the Pacific, and MCs Kim Gu-ra and Kim Sun-woo (49) to talk about the behind-the-scenes story of his Hyundai Unicorns days. In particular, former coach Chung Myung-won drew attention by revealing his special relationship with manager Yeom Kyung-yeop, the winning head coach of the KBO League.

Coach Chung Myung-won and head coach Yeom Kyung-yeop had a special relationship at Hyundai Unicorns on April 5, 2001, at one point in the day. Pitchers and fielders were in different positions, but there is a connection between the two who became the main characters of the retirement ceremony throughout the team's heyday.

Coach Chung Myung-won said in the video, "In the past, coach Yeom Kyung-yeop clearly promised, 'Bro, if I'm the coach later, I'll think of one as insurance if you're playing." He then added with a regretful tone, "But you haven't called me until now, I'm sure you did!" and turned the scene into a sea of laughter.

At the same time, coach Chung Myung-won confessed honestly that he also had a desire for the manager's position. "I didn't have to be greedy on the outside, but I thought about it inside," he said. The position of director was not something that could be done just because you wanted it. I made a lot of good players, but strangely, I've never offered a coach," he said with a hearty laugh.

He also recalled playing with the Pacific-Hyundai Unicorns as an active player. Coach Chung said, "Coach Yeom was good at defense when he was active. It's the same from the pitcher's point of view. You really did a great job in baseball. His feet were fast and he had a good sense. He also praised me, saying, "I was gentle, and everything was clean and clean." Coach Cho Woong-cheon also said, "The defense was really stable, and the main focus was huge. I was wary of him thinking that he would come home anytime if he went out as a pinch runner," he said.

In addition, coach Chung showed off his strong talk in the video, releasing a number of episodes that old fans would be enthusiastic about, including the full story of the Beanball incident against Lee Seung-yeop and Yang Joon-hyuk during the rivalry match between Hyundai and Samsung and the unconventional support scale of Chairman Chung Ju-young.

Meanwhile, coach Chung Myung-won was a legend of Incheon baseball when he was active. Coach Chung Myung-won, who graduated from Gunsan High School and Wonkwang University, played 395 KBO League games from the 1989 season to the 2000 season, recording a career record of 75 wins, 54 losses, 142 saves and an ERA of 2.57. He became the first player in league history to make 40 saves in a single season in the 1994 season and became the title holder in the category with a 1.86 ERA in the 1998 season. After retirement, he served as a leader on the professional stage from the 2002 to 2023 season and is currently working as a pitching instructor in the baseball team of Gangneung Yeongdong University.
