Song Kyo-chang (30, 199cm), the star forward who led Busan KCC Egis to its seventh all-time championship title in the Korean Basketball League, has suddenly declared his intention to challenge the overseas stage.

On the 22nd, the KCC club announced through an official press release, "We respect Song Kyo-chang's intention to go overseas and will support his new challenge."

According to the club, Song Kyo-chang strongly expressed his desire to challenge the overseas stage immediately after achieving the championship in the 2025-2026 season. After sufficient discussions with the player, KCC decided to respect his growth and new career challenge and agreed to actively cooperate with the overseas transfer procedures. Accordingly, KCC plans to proceed with the public disclosure procedure for voluntary withdrawal to facilitate Song Kyo-chang's move overseas in accordance with relevant regulations.

Song Kyo-chang is unquestionably KCC's franchise star and the league's top all-around player. He previously won the regular season MVP in the 2020-2021 season, and this season, he played as a key member of a powerful "super team" along with Heo Woong and Choi Jun-yong, achieving the historic feat of the first-ever "6th-place team winning the championship" in professional basketball history.

Having lifted the championship cup he had aimed for, Song Kyo-chang declared his determination to pursue an even bigger dream—the overseas stage—rather than resting on his laurels. The KCC club also said, "Song Kyo-chang is a player who has always done his best for the team based on his dedicated play and sincerity. We respect his will to challenge a new stage and sincerely wish him great success overseas," offering a warm farewell.

With the declaration of the country's top forward's challenge to the overseas stage, the basketball community is already in an uproar. Currently, Song Kyo-chang's specific destination club and concrete plans remain shrouded in mystery, and fans and officials are increasingly curious about which stage he will begin his new challenge on.
