The recent update on Kang Si-hoo, the son of broadcaster Kang Ho-dong, showing his growth as a golf player has sparked attention.

Recently, practice videos of Kang Si-hoo, who is active as a golf player, have spread across the OnLINE community and social media.

The released video captured Si-hoo focused on golf practice while wearing a black short-sleeved T-shirt and training pants. In particular, his robust physique, which strongly resembles that of his father Kang Ho-dong, a former strongman champion, and his powerful swing drew attention.

Born in 2009, Si-hoo is currently a high school sophomore and was known to have already reached a height of 188 cm last year.

Si-hoo is also making his mark as a golf player. He won the individual event for the men's high school division at the 36th Seoul Metropolitan Golf Association President's Cup Golf Tournament held last year, and placed second at the 1st Gangwon Ilbo Baekdu-daegan Cup National Middle and High School Student Golf Tournament held in May of this year. He has consistently achieved good results, including finishing fourth at the 37th Seoul Metropolitan Golf Association President's Cup Golf Tournament.

Previously, Kang Ho-dong revealed that his son dreamed of becoming a baseball player when he was young. At the time, Si-hoo, who was right-handed, began learning to bat left-handed on his father's recommendation, but it is reported that he later lost interest in baseball.

In response to this update on Si-hoo, some baseball fans expressed regret with reactions such as "He really has the build of a right-handed power hitter," "You can see baseball in his face," and "Can't he come back to baseball?"

Meanwhile, Kang Ho-dong married a non-celebrity woman nine years younger than him in 2006 and welcomed his son Si-hoo in 2009. Last year, on JTBC's 'Knowing Bros,' Seo Jang-hoon sparked attention by stating about Si-hoo, "His build is somewhere between mine and Ho-dong's. His feet are the same size as mine."
