"The Devil's Man" Lotte Giants outfielder Hwang Sung-bin will play in his first career All-Star Game. In addition, four players, including Jang Hyun-sik of the KIA Tigers, joined the 2024 KBO All-Star Game.

KBO announced on the 3rd that it has replaced four players who are unable to play in the All-Star Game due to injuries.

Hwang Sung-bin replaced Guillermo Herredia (SSG Landers), who injured his calf due to a foul ball.

Hwang Sung-bin was unfortunately ranked fourth in the outfield category (three on board) in the All-Star Best 12 voting, but he was listed in the Best 12 as a runner-up.

Hwang has been displaying stellar performance this season, including a batting average of 0.364 34 steals. At the game against the Doosan Bears in Jamsil on Tuesday, he also had two hits and two steals from six times at bat.

Hwang Sung-bin's galloping instinct is expected to shine in the All-Star Game.

In addition, Jang Hyun-sik was selected in place of closer Jung Hae-young (KIA Tigers), who is unable to play due to a shoulder injury despite the most fan votes.

As Joo Hyun-sang (Hanwha Eagles), the runner-up in the All-Star voting bullpen pitcher category, moved from the manager's recommended player to the best 12, Jang Hyun-sik filled the vacancy as a manager-recommended player.

In this way, infielders Park Ji-hwan (SSG Landers) and Song Sung-moon (Kium Heroes) will participate in the All-Star Game on behalf of Son Ho-young, who ended the first half early due to a hamstring injury and Lee Woo-sung, who was found injured in the thigh tendon.
