After starting the season in a Samsung Lions uniform this year, Lee joined the Kiwoom Heroes via trade on April 27. Kiwoom’s purpose was clear. They brought him in to bolster their offense and add texture to their batting order.

Lee, who was batting .362 with a .969 OPS (on-base percentage + slugging percentage) for Samsung, saw his performance drop after joining Kiwoom.

In particular, he suffered a severe batting slump in May. In 25 games, he batted just .158 with one home run, four RBIs, and an OPS of .400. By the end of May, Lee’s season average was down to .259.

However, Lee quickly found his groove, recording multi-hit games in each of his first three games in June. His batting pace is ready to pick up again.

Lee Won-seok’s journey with the Hero Legion will continue until 2026 at the earliest. Kiwoom signed Lee Won-seok on Aug. 28 to a 2+1 year contract worth up to 1 billion won.

The contract guarantees two years in 2024 and 2025, with an automatic extension to 2026 if the option is met. He will earn 400 million won in the first year and 300 million won from 2025.

With a roster full of young players, Kiwoom took note of veteran Lee Won-seok’s leadership, not just his performance, but also his ability to lead and set an example for the younger players.

Speaking to News, Kiwoom head coach Ko Hyung-wook said of Lee Won-seok, “He’s been doing a great job since he was traded, and he’s showing good synergy with the younger players. He is guiding the young players well, answering their questions with care and sincerity. I appreciated those things.”

Lee Won-seok is the first player to sign a multi-year contract with Kiwoom. Despite only spending two months together, Lee has become indispensable to Kiwoom.

Speaking about the multi-year contract, Ko said, “The club decided it was necessary. A multi-year contract requires a lot of complicated things to happen, and it happened because Lee Won-seok did a good job. I hope it will serve as a good example.”

Kiwoom also hopes that Lee’s multi-year contract will have a positive impact on the team, including motivation.

“I think it will have a good impact on other players and create a good atmosphere within the team. “This is the first multi-year contract in the club, and if Lee Won-seok does a good job, it will set a good example for the team,” he said.
