43-year-old team veteran Choi Hyeong-woo burst into nonstop laughter.

Amidst the cancellation of the 2026 KBO postseason playoff matchup between the Samsung Lions and the KIA Tigers, which was scheduled to be held at Daegu Samsung Lions Park on the 25th due to rain, Samsung's Choi Hyeong-woo answered reporters' questions with a consistently bright expression.

He said, "I told my younger teammates from KIA, 'Why are you playing so well? Isn't this below your usual level? Why is everyone going crazy and running wild?'" and praised his former team's younger players by adding, "They were just unbelievably good." When asked about Kim Dong-young, he smiled again, saying, "He's not getting injured and he's playing well, so there's no need for a specific explanation."
