The Korea Baseball Organization (KBO) announced on Friday that it had received a request from the MLB office for an identity check on Lee Jung-hoo and Ko Woo-seok on the 14th, and notified them today that they are players of Kiwoom-LG, respectively.

Jung-hoo Lee and Woo-seok Ko have played at least seven regular seasons, ending this season, and are eligible to play overseas through the posting system (sealed competitive bidding) by agreement of their clubs.

They are friends of the same age and are also brother-in-law and sister-in-law. Go Woo-seok married Lee Jung-hoo's sister in January and they became a family.

Before the season, Lee announced his intention to play in the major leagues, and his club agreed. During the season, scouts from major league teams often came to the ballpark to watch him play.

He suffered an ankle injury in July that prevented him from playing full-time, but his evaluation is over. The local media has been showing a lot of interest in Lee Jung-hoo lately, with a number of articles suggesting a possible transfer.

Go Woo-seok has never directly expressed his desire to go abroad like Lee has. It's unclear if he's going to try out for the major leagues right away, and he'll have to get his club to agree.

First of all, a background check request is literally just a formal identification of the player, so it doesn't necessarily lead to a contract with a major league team. However, it can be interpreted as an indication that major league teams have some interest in Go Woo-seok. 슬롯사이트
