Despite the cold winter weather, Yoo Hee-kwan's wit was as sharp as ever.

[Yoo Hee-kwan/KBSN Baseball Commentator: "Are you Lee Jung-hoo? Where did you come from, San Francisco? Why are you late?"]

His analogies were easy for young players to understand, rivaling those of professional coaches.

[Yoo Hee-kwan/KBSN Baseball Commentator: "If you shoot archery from here, how far will it go? (A little.) If you pull it back and shoot, what will happen? (It will go far.)"]

Having survived in the professional league with a slower pitch speed, he emphasized the importance of leveraging one's strengths.

[Yoo Hee-kwan/KBSN Baseball Commentator: "Some kids have less strength than others, but if they don't give up and continue developing their strengths, I believe a great baseball player will emerge in the future."]

Park Yong-taik's coaching was strict, as if he were dealing with professionals.

["Out! Out!"]

This was due to his philosophy that a strong competitive spirit has made him a symbol of consistency.

[Park Yong-taik/KBS Baseball Commentator: "I don't say, 'Have fun playing baseball. Enjoy it.' I've never seen anyone who succeeds among those who play baseball just for fun."]

Participants learned a lot from the heartfelt advice of coaches who are former star players.

[Lee Seo-yul/Duksong Elementary: "I felt a lot, and I hope to become a great player myself and teach kids."]

It was a meaningful time where the instructors' passion helped nurture the young talent that will shape the future of Korean baseball.
