Overview
- The contract is the longest and most valuable in KBO history, surpassing Choi Jeong’s cumulative ₩30.2 billion and eclipsing prior eight-year maximum terms.
- The extension covers the 2027–2037 seasons, includes options and incentives, and would see Roh return to Hanwha if he re-enters the KBO after any MLB attempt.
- Under the posting terms reported, a 30-day MLB negotiation window would apply; failure to sign sends Roh back to Hanwha, while a signed MLB deal would trigger tiered posting fees to the Eagles.
- Roh, 25, thanked the club and pledged to push for a 2026 Korean Series title, emphasizing his pride in a long-term commitment to one team.
- The third baseman is coming off a 32-homer 2025 that helped Hanwha reach the Korean Series, with a career .264/.352/.449 line and 124 home runs.
