Jeonju KCC, which is conducting summer off-season training in Taebaek, Gangwon-do, was in full swing of court training at Hwangji Gymnasium on the 28th at 5 p.m. The team’s eyes were wide open when they found Cha Min-seok (45, Sejong Sports Orthopedic Surgery), the team’s doctor, who suddenly appeared at the gym. 스포츠토토 Director Cha drove a hospital van for about four hours with the head of the rehabilitation center after finishing treatment at a hospital in Gwangjin-gu, Seoul. Cha, who has been the doctor for about three years, has a familiar face, but he did not expect to meet at a remote training ground.
Director Cha’s answer, taking a short breath to say hello to people around him, You must be busy with hospital treatment, so why are you going all the way here? was concise. Because the players were stepped on by the snow.
It was. Cha was a bloody doctor who was crazy about basketball. In this case, it is expected that the Seonseon Festival venue, which often avoids heat waves as well as checking off-season training, will also be expected to get some air. However, Director Cha was scheduled to take the first intercity bus to Seoul at 5:30 a.m. for hospital treatment scheduled on the 29th. He decided to take an early morning bus instead of leaving the van, saying that there was no need to suffer even the accompanying rehabilitation chief.
As a result, there was no time for breathing. After finishing dinner in a hurry, he loaded medical equipment such as an ultrasound medical device into a van, saying that he would check the muscle condition one by one at the team’s accommodation during the night. This is the first time that Cha has visited an off-season training site. Director Cha, who has not been able to visit due to the COVID-19 pandemic for the past two years, stubbornly left the road, saying, I decided to take at least some time to prevent players’ injuries this year.
Director Cha explained, Since the strength of physical strength training is somewhat high in Taebaek, it is necessary to medically check whether there are any players who have suffered muscle strain and the current condition of the injured players.
There was a reason why Cha could be so serious in basketball. When I was in college, I was such a basketball fanatic that I worked in a basketball club at medical school. For KCC’s star Song Kyo-chang, who is serving in the military, he is also a beneficiary of basketball’s life. On October 22, 2021, Song Kyo-chang suffered a severe fracture that broke through the flesh of the fourth finger of his left hand during an away game in Daegu. At that time, Cha became the savior when he was stamping his feet because he couldn’t find a hospital to perform emergency surgery because it was late on Friday night. Thanks to the connection of the name of Daegu’s veterinary surgeon Cha, who was well aware of, he was able to operate quickly and successfully.
Cho Jin-ho, secretary-general of the club, said, Even when Jung Chang-young slightly injured his hand during the game last season, Cha, who came to the game as an audience, ran down to the bench at the speed of light and examined the injury like a biological child. Passion is the best, he said.
Director Cha said, I can’t forget the memory of Yoo Byung-hoon suffering from severe hip inflammation two years ago. Now I’m happy to see you train healthily, he said. At first, I feel rewarded to have an emotional connection with players who I met only as doctors and patients. I don’t mind if I don’t have anything to do next season, so I hope I spend it without any injuries, he said with a smile.
