Team Korea will hold an opening ceremony at 6 p.m. on Saturday and play its first match against Taiwan, its home team, from 7 p.m. on Saturday. The team will then play a preliminary round against Hong Kong on Saturday and against Palestine on Sunday. In fact, the opening match can be said to be the final match of Group A to rank No. 1.

In addition to NC coach Son Yong-seok, Inha University coach Jung Won-bae and Dankook University coach Kim Yoo-jin were appointed as coaching staff to assist coach Chung In-myung. Jung Won-bae/Kim Yoo-jin is expected to complement the empirical aspects of Chung In-myung's appointment.

Among the players, it is necessary to pay attention to Na Seung-yeop (Lotte), who was discharged from Sangmu, and Kim Bum-seok (LG), who can be both catchers and infielders. In addition, Ryu Hyun-gon (SSG), who was the runner-up in the Golden Lion era when Doosan's left-handed ace Lee Byung-hun and Cheongdam High School, will also try to improve his skills through the upcoming event. It is also notable that catcher Shin Yong-seok (NC), who has good long-range shots, has become the first player to wear the national flag.

Infielder Yoo Tae-woong, who appeared through JTBC's strongest baseball, was rarely selected for the national team among junior college students, and promising players such as Kang Dong-hoon and Chung Hyeon-soo, who were called in the draft, also joined the national team. In particular, it is worth noting that Yonsei University pitcher Kang Min-gu was the only freshman to wear the Taegeuk mark.

The Asian Baseball Championship was originally held as a preliminary round for the U-23 Baseball World Cup or the Olympics. Since there are no baseball events at the Paris Olympics next year, it is expected to take the form of a prelude to the U-23 Baseball World Cup.
