The Kiwoom Heroes team will return to Kaohsiung camp after a special "Taipei outing" to speed up preparations for the season.

According to the club, Kiwoom successfully completed its two-night, three-day visit to Taipei from the 20th to the 22nd. This schedule went beyond simple training and became a time of "three birds with one stone" that encompasses practical sensory inspection, cultural experience, and baseball diplomacy.

The biggest harvest was a practice game against Taiwan's WBC national baseball team. Kiwoom played closed practice games at the latest Taipei Dome for two days on the 21st and 22nd to enhance its sense of practice. According to the agreement between the two teams, detailed records were not disclosed, but according to Taiwanese media, Kiwoom performed well with one win and one draw. Above all, meeting a high-quality opponent, the national team preparing for the WBC, is interpreted as a great stimulus to players ahead of the season.

There was also a meaningful time for recharging between training sessions. On the 20th, the team visited the National Palace Museum, one of the world's four largest museums, to see relics from China's previous dynasties. In the repetitive training schedule, I had a meaningful time to expand my perspective by experiencing the history and culture of other countries, communicating with my colleagues, and strengthening teamwork.

There were also off-site harvests. Kiwoom's general manager Huh Seung-pil met with Tsai Chi-jang, president of the Taiwan Baseball Association (CPBL), to discuss ways to expand baseball exchanges between the two sides, including cooperation in spring camps and regular practice games, and promised mutual development.

Captain Lim Ji-yeol said, "This is my first visit to the museum, and I was impressed, and through the game against the Taiwanese national team, I was convinced that we were also in the process of becoming a good team," adding, "We will fill the lack of details well for the rest of the year and meet expectations this season."

After a fruitful schedule in Taipei, the Kiwoom team will move to Kaohsiung on the 22nd to carry out the rest of the spring camp schedule.
