Moon Jung-hyun (24, Suwon KT), who played an active role in his return to injury and served as the vanguard of defeating natural enemies, delivered a special affectionate vitriol toward his younger brother Moon Yoo-hyun (22, Anyang Jeonggwanjang).

Moon Jung-hyun showed off his presence on both sides of offense and defense with 12 points, seven rebounds and two steals in a home game against Seoul SK in the 2025-2026 KCC professional basketball league held at KT Sonicboom Arena in Suwon on the 6th.

It's a record win. It is the first time KT beat SK since December 1, 2024. KT, which had lost all nine games, ended its terrible losing streak in 460 days with this victory.

On this day, Moon Jung-hyun led KT to 81-70 victory by showing off his presence in every game as well as defense and rebounding.

Moon Jung-hyun, who won the injury return match, said, "I've been losing to SK in a row, but I've prepared a lot by increasing my exercise almost without a day off during the break period. "It's good that it led to a good result," he said. "I felt sorry and frustrated for my brothers as I couldn't keep up with the away game and the team lost a lot. "Thanks to the trainers' good management, I was able to overcome it well," he said.

It is rumored that Moon Jung-hyun cheered for his younger brother Moon Yoo-hyun at the match between Sono of Goyang and Jeong Kwan-jang held the previous day. Moon Jung-hyun and Moon Yoo-hyun are well known as the first brothers in history. After Moon Jung-hyun, who joined KT as the first overall pick in the 2023 draft, his younger brother Moon Yoo-hyun was also selected as the first-round pick in the 2025 draft.

That's why KT (22 wins and 22 losses) is in a critical situation, being chased by seventh-ranked Goyang Sono (21 wins and 23 losses). When Sono loses, KT's sixth-place Mercury will be advantageous, so Moon Jung-hyun hoped for his younger brother's team to win.

However, contrary to KT's expectations, Jeong Kwan-jang lost in a close game with Sono. Younger brother Moon Yoo-hyun played a decisive role in making a 73-69 lead 58 seconds before the end of Sono match, but failed to prevent his team's 73-75 upset loss.

In response, Moon Jung-hyun said, "I cheered for my younger brother for the first time yesterday. "My younger brother lost when I cheered for him," he said. "It didn't work because he desperately wanted it. I watched the Sono game as a group the day before. "As KT is also on a cliff, I will try hard to die every game," he stressed.

He also did not forget his advice to his younger brother, who was selected for the national team during the recent FIBA Basketball World Cup Asian qualifying round. Moon Jung-hyun, who was also a senior member of the national team, said, "I told my younger brother that it would be difficult to get on a plane, but he said he was still young, but he convinced me that he was right after coming back." He is still a player who needs to be broken a lot. I didn't praise him, but he's a player who will definitely get better," he said with a smile.

At the same time, he said, "My younger brother is an exercise addict, so he does too much useless exercise. He said, "I told you to stop exercising now," and gave cold-hearted advice.

In the first sibling showdown held in January, younger brother Moon Yoo-hyun laughed. At that time, Moon Yoo-hyun had 18 points and 7 rebounds in the game, and his older brother Moon Jung-hyun only had 1 point, 6 rebounds and 3 assists to swallow his disappointment. In both records and wins and losses, younger brother Moon Yoo-hyun won a decision to older brother Moon Jung-hyun, becoming the main character of the first brother face-off.

On top of that, Moon Jung-hyun said, "It's because I'm still young." "I'm not grown up," he said with a smile, but added, "I admit I lost the first match, but I'll do it for sure next time I see you. I hope we can have an interesting game," he vowed.

The victory was also the first win by Kim Sun-hyung and head coach Moon Kyung-eun against their former team SK. Moon Jung-hyun said, "Sunhyung would have wanted to win more than anyone else, but he didn't show even if he was frustrated. He said, "I played harder for Sun-hyung to win this game."

Despite the crisis without key Ha Yoon-ki and Joel Cagoulangan, Moon Jung-hyun said, "I'm honestly very disappointed that if the team tries to hit it, the player gets hurt," but added, "But without teeth, I'm going to play every game with the goal of spring basketball as if I'm doing it with my gums."
