Park Dong-won was a threatening hitter until May. After opening in April, he hit 13 home runs to lead the KBO League. Roh Si-hwan (Hanwha Eagles) and Choi Joo-hwan (SSG Landers) were four ahead of the second-place group, and the "catcher home run king" in 19 years since Park Kyung-wan (then SK Wyverns) in 2004. However, grades have fallen since June. The monthly batting average in July and August remained in the 10% range, and the monthly home run was only added one each. 스포츠토토탑

Regarding Park Dong-won's sluggishness, head coach Yeom Kyung-yeop said, "There is only one thing that can raise the average," adding, "I have to swing and stay in place, but it's like this (imitating the hitting posture). "I can't do an in-and-out swing," he said. Park Dong-won, who plays full swing, loses his posture after hitting. As the head moves early, the batting balance is disturbed. The backswing was so big that he hit the back of the catcher's head with a bat several times. In the first season of the LG transfer, he corrected related problems. As a result, the batting average rose and the number of home runs increased, leading to a positive effect. But at some point, it returned to square one. Both accuracy and slugging power turned red.

Coach Yeom Kyung-yeop said, "(Even if I swing in my current batting posture), all the body parts are foul and the outside parts are not well hit. "Only the middle (bat) gets caught," he said, adding, "It's just a mistake (in the middle of the strike zone) that goes over one by one." He said, "Even if I practice, I can't fix it," adding, "I don't hit it because I'm aiming for a breaking ball, so my opponent only throws a breaking ball by more than 80%. "Who gives Park Dong-won a fastball?" he asked again. As the opponent's boundaries increased, the number of breaking balls increased significantly. His performance is faltering because he cannot cope flexibly with the changed pitching repertoire. Park Dong-won's batting average in the second half will remain at 0.169 (0.272 batting average in the first half). The change in the slugging rate (0.508→0.303) in the first and second half is greater.

Director Yeom Kyung-yeop said, "It's not easy to change it in a year because we've been doing it for nearly 20 years. I'm trying to change it, and I know I should because I saw (good) results in the beginning. I think it will take two to three years to get back, he said. "If you catch this, you'll be a much scarier batter." "Even if I hit 0.28 million in mileage, the number of home runs will increase a lot, but as the mileage drops, the number of home runs will also decrease," he said. Coach Yeom thinks batting average and home runs are proportional. A case in point is that Park Dong-won's batting average and home runs drew an upward curve at the beginning of the season. Park Dong-won's decrease in home runs is also attributed to the accuracy of the hit.

There are not only problems. Park Dong-won is ranked in the top 10 in the league with 67 RBIs. It aims to break the record of the most RBIs (83) in a season recorded in 2021. Manager Yeom Kyung-yeop said, "After two strikes, he makes a ground ball or an outfield fly, so the RBI goes up. "I think that's a success," he said, encouraging, "It's not easy to do it overnight, even though (the hitting style) changes step by step."
