Lee Taek-geun, popularity peaks in ‘The Strongest Baseball’
Taek-Geun Lee of the Strongest Monsters is active as a coach.

In the 61st episode of JTBC's entertainment program 'Strongest Baseball', which will be broadcast at 10:30 pm on the 9th, the first game between the Strongest Monsters and Hanil Jangsin University will be held.

The Strongest Monsters had 1 win and 1 loss against Korea-Japan Jangsin University last season. In particular, I have a bitter memory of being defeated in the first game. As such, Hanil University is a team with solid defense and organizational skills, and boasts the best condition by going undefeated in this year's college baseball group league matches.

The strongest Monsters are also in high spirits after winning a direct match against the U-18 national baseball team. While the atmosphere in the locker room is more friendly than ever, ‘Coach Taek’ Lee Taek-geun comes out to brief the opponent’s strength.

Now that the corner within the corner, which has become a fixture, 'Lee Taek-geun's analysis TIME' begins, even the strongest monsters focus at once. Park Yong-taek also expressed his envy toward Lee Taek-geun, who received more one-shot shots than when he was playing.

Taek-Geun Lee meticulously points out the characteristics and strengths of the pitchers and hitters of Korea-Japan Jangshin University, while also analyzing the game he lost a year ago and showing off his passion for sharing it with his teammates. He also tells pitchers what to watch out for when dealing with Korean-Japanese hitters.

Expectations are high on whether the strongest Monsters, who learned the full strength of Korea-Japan Jangshin University through 'Lee Taek-geun's Analysis TIME', will be able to lead this game to victory.

Meanwhile, episode 61 of ‘Best Baseball’ will be broadcast at 10:30 pm on the 9th (Monday).
