Busan KCC coach Jeon Chang-jin revealed a past episode of a meat restaurant ahead of the professional basketball championship match (best of 7 games), drawing attention as a match between brothers Heo Woong (KCC) and Heo Hoon (Suwon KT), creating a war of nerves and causing laughter.

Former coach, KT coach Song Young-jin, and players Heo Woong, Song Kyo-chang (KCC), Heo Hoon, and Moon Seong-gon (KT) attended the 2023-24 Jeong Kwan-jang Professional Basketball Championship Media Day held at the KBL Center in Gangnam-gu, Seoul on the 25th.

As brothers Heo Woong and Heo Hoon face each other in this championship game, a lot of attention was paid to it on the field that day.

Although they are brothers known for their close friendship, there was a lot of tension between them as they did not have a championship ring.

Heo Woong first expressed his desire to win, saying, “There is a lot of interest as it is a competition between brothers, and since it was a difficult competition, I will do my best to achieve good results until the finals.”

In response, Heo Hoon also said, “Personally, this is my first championship match in my life,” and added, “I will do my best as I am desperate to win.”

Director Jeon Chang-jin revealed the story of what happened with Heo Woong and Heo Hoon last summer, encouraging Heo Woong and heightening the atmosphere on set.

Director Jeon said, “Last summer, I took the two of them to a restaurant, and Heo Woong ate cheap bulgogi, and Heo Hoon ate expensive sirloin. “Woong just watched his younger brother like that,” he said, adding, “Such a good Heo Woong always gives in to the bad Heo Hoon.”

He continued, “During the championship match, I hope Woong doesn’t make concessions because he thinks his younger brother is the ace of the opposing team,” and added, “If Heo Woong makes up his mind, I don’t have to worry too much.”

Heo Hoon responded to the former director’s surprise revelation, saying, “It’s a frame-up. “It’s already war,” he responded.

Although Heo Hoon and Heo Woong competed for the championship, they also showed their friendship as brothers, saying that they hoped each other would not get injured.

Heo Woong said, “It is an honor to be able to compete as brothers in the championship game,” and added, “I hope that we can achieve what we want by doing our best without getting injured.”

Heo Hoon also responded, “I think it’s going to be a fierce game, and I hope both of them end the game with good performances and no injuries.”

Meanwhile, KT, the 3rd place team in the regular season, and KCC, the 5th place team, will play the first game of the championship match at KT’s home, Suwon KT Arena, on the 27th. KT, which advanced to the championship game in 17 years by winning a close game against Changwon LG the previous day, going all the way to the 5th game of the semifinal playoff (PO), is challenging its first championship since its founding.

On the other hand, KCC, who defeated Wonju DB 3-1 in the semifinal PO and advanced to the championship game, is attempting to win the championship for the first time in three years and the first championship in KBL history as the 5th place team in the regular season.
