Recently, the KBO league has entered a '300 billion contract era' with the signing of a record-breaking contract between Hanwha Eagles and their star player, No Si-hwan. This 11-year contract, worth a total of 307 billion won, has set a new standard for player contracts in the league.

Background of the Contract

The contract includes an option for No Si-hwan to pursue a career in the MLB after the 2026 season. However, if he chooses to do so, he will have to return to the Hanwha Eagles if he decides to come back to the KBO league. This clause has sparked interest in the value of other top players in the league, particularly those in the same position as No Si-hwan.

Comparison with Other Players

One player who has drawn attention is Moon Bo-kyung, a 3rd baseman for the LG Twins. Moon and No Si-hwan are the same age and have been compared since their rookie days. While No Si-hwan has been a key player for the Hanwha Eagles since his debut, Moon has had a slower start due to injuries but has since become a crucial part of the LG Twins.

Moon's career highlights include two Korean Series championships and a gold medal in the 2022 Asian Games, which has earned him an exemption from military service. His impressive performance in the 2025 Korean Series, where he hit 0.526 with 1 home run and 8 RBIs, has also increased his value.

Contract Negotiations for Moon are expected to be intense, with his current salary already at 4.8 billion won. As he is set to become a free agent after the 2028 season, the LG Twins may consider offering him a long-term contract to prevent him from leaving the team.
