[Tokyo (Japan) = Sports Chosun Reporter Ryu Dong-hyuk] Hyundai Mobis Park Moo-bin (23) was selected as the second runner-up in the first round of the rookie draft last year.

Hyundai Mobis, which felt the weakness of the guard, chose Park Moo-bin, who is considered the best slasher in college.

The impact was intense. He is not tall at 1m84, but he filled Hyundai Mobis' outer weaknesses well with his compliant power, excellent under-the-goal breakthrough, and bold outside shooting.

Unfortunately, he failed to continue his rise due to injuries, and showed poor performance in the playoffs. However, Park Moo-bin's appearance was meaningful in securing the main ball handler of Hyundai Mobis' future.

Therefore, the growth of Park Moo-bin this season is very important for Hyundai Mobis, which has excellent wingman resources such as Sean Long and Gage Prim, domestic big men such as Jang Jae-seok, Kim Joon-il and Ham Ji-hoon, and Lee Woo-seok, Shin Min-seok, and Kim Kook-chan.

Of course, Hyundai Mobis has an octogenarian zone in the Asian quarter, and Han Ho-bin and Seo Myung-jin are also showing good performance. However, the key is how to fill the weaknesses of the guard that can appear in the playoffs. In the end, Hyundai Mobis' final playoff ranking can be determined by Park Moo-bin's growth. How did Park spend the offseason. I met him at the Shinjuku Prince Hotel in Tokyo, a base camp for Hyundai Mobis at a training camp in Japan.

Park Mubin looked bright. A positive expression was added to the warm appearance.

I was curious about the difference between last year's offseason and this year's offseason.

"When I joined the training camp in Japan last year, I didn't know many older brothers for sure. I only knew about the seniors I played with at Korea University, but this year I feel completely adjusted. It is also true that he had difficulty adapting as a rookie last year. It was not a good memory that his debut was delayed due to injury just before the season. At the time, I knew that just being sorry doesn't mean my injury will get better and better, and I think I watched our team's game a lot at the time."

He said "The fastball or transition energy level is my advantage. It was good to be able to join the team's upward movement because that part worked well, but strangely, all the senses disappeared after visiting the national team. I did team training for no reason, and I felt like dribbling as well as shooting sensation was playing without touching the basketball for about three months. It was the reason why he was sluggish in the playoffs."

"I had a lot of minor injuries last season," he said. It is said that the ankle injury before the season was unlucky, but there were many minor injuries such as back and ankle. I think it's important to build a body during the offseason. After the season, I just rested at home for a month. I've barely had a break in the last two years, and my body itself is not a natural stamina or steel bone. So I needed a break. I don't like to drink or play outside. I almost rested at home, and after 1 month, I started training. Fortunately, the team recommended cross-fit, so I focused on cross-fit. When I joined the team training, I tried not to fall behind as much as I could."

have confidence in one's expression. However, Park is criticized for his physical weaknesses. He also agreed with this point. "I think that's the right time. I've heard this since I was in high school. He runs to the point where he feels like he's overdoing it on the court. It's my weakness and my weakness, but I'm not basically a good fit body. I think it's important to have that body and push it to the limit as much as possible"I talked a lot with coach Yang Dong-geun during off-season practice. I felt that it was necessary to distinguish between when to do and when not to do, and to refrain from excessive participation in rebound participation. If a guard rebounds about 10 times on the professional stage, he/she cannot catch it and is often an inefficient waste of physical strength."

He also felt it was necessary to distinguish between when to show strong activity in the airlift and when to stockpile. I think we will be able to get out of our physical weaknesses when this part is established."

His interview was smart. It's definitely good at keeping track of the pulse. He said "When you're immersed in a game, you often fall into a trance. You need to be more relaxed. From now on, it's like my homework in the professional field. "Energy revaluation and maintenance of activism are my strengths, but there are areas that need to be harmonized at the boundary of unreasonable things."

According to Hyundai Mobis' coaching staff and senior players, Park Moo-bin evaluated that he has adapted to the team very well since he joined the team last year. He was fresh but didn't miss what he had to do as a junior.

He said "I think this part is because the team atmosphere is so good. There is not a single old-fashioned or honest older brother. There is no such atmosphere. There is a big age difference with Ham Ji-hoon, but I can hardly feel the actual generation difference. "Basically, basketball is a team sport, teamwork, and my own principle is that if you don't become a one-team team, you can't get good results. I was like that in college, and I tried to get close to my older brothers first in a professional program. And he took it well.'

Park's breakthrough is quite powerful. It has good speed and power to overcome strong physical fights at the same time. Shooting efficiency is also very high in clutch time.

However, it is also true that it still needs to develop.

He is concentrating on the plotter. I often used it in high school (Hongik University High School), but I didn't feel much need in college. However, I thought it was absolutely necessary when I met a foreign player in the professional league. However, I think the more important thing is defense. Personally, I'm not a good defensive player. However, I want to learn a lot from the one-on-one defense and I want to adapt more to the team defense as well."
