Samsung finished the season with Kim Jae-yoon. However, Kim fell into an unexpected slump, and his earned run average soared to around seven points through early May.

In the end, Samsung manager Park Jin-man selected Lee Ho-sung, who was in good condition in the bullpen, as the closing pitcher and decided to pull Kim Jae-yoon forward.

Fortunately, he has been showing signs of improvement lately. At the match against LG at Jamsil LG on June 31, he gave one hit, two strikeouts and no run in two innings, laying the groundwork for his team's victory. It was Kim Jae-yoon's first multi-inning game this season. "This is how we expected him to be," Samsung coach Park Jin-man said.

Kim Jae-yoon, whom I met at Jamsil Stadium on the 1st, said, "There were not many balls, and the coach gave me the innings as if I thought I was in good condition. That's why I was able to throw more confidently."

Recently, he has been cautious about his condition. Kim Jae-yoon said, "Actually, I haven't thought yet that I'm doing well. I'm still trying to find my condition and thinking about it a lot."

As I prepared for this season, I was in strangely good condition in the spring camp. Kim Jae-yoon said, "In the spring camp, I always had shoulder discomfort every year in the process of building up my body. But this year, I didn't have such a thing, so I was confident. However, as I didn't feel well, I lost more confidence. I also thought, 'What's wrong with me when I'm not sick?'" he said.

I tried to find a solution in terms of pitching mechanism. However, it was not easy and Kim Jae-yoon admitted that he is not in a position to finish. Through an interview with manager Park Jin-man, he changed his position. "I also thought so and came down calmly because I felt comfortable going forward rather than the closing pitcher until I regained my condition," Kim said.

Fortunately, Lee Ho-sung is filling up Kim Jae-yoon's vacancy well. "Ho-sung is doing well, so even if I don't go there again, I'm trying to work hard in the given position because my young friends have to keep growing so that my team can live," Kim said.

Choi Il-eon's advice is also helpful. Kim Jae-yoon said, "They tell us a lot about the points," and added, "Finding confidence is basic, and there are mechanisms that I can use my pitching form one by one. It's a process that I make because there are parts that fit me."

Kim Jae-yoon's position has been moved, but he is still needed in the team. Because there are many young players in the team, veteran players such as Kim Jae-yoon, Lim Chang-min and Oh Seung-hwan should take the center stage.

Kim Jae-yoon said, "I also have a sense of responsibility in that area. We all need to do well to create synergy," adding, "Young players such as Bae Chan-seung, Lee Ho-seong, and Lee Seung-min are doing well, so I think I should do well for now. I'm also working hard to give some help to my juniors."

His long beard represents his efforts. "I am growing it out thinking of doing anything. I am trying to change my behavior patterns and do something," Kim said. "But I can cut it soon because my wife told me to cut it."
