Kim Ha-seong, known as “Awesome Kim” for his impact in Major League Baseball, is unveiling his off-season life in Korea. After completing a remarkable season in the U.S. and returning home for a short break, the broadcast will reveal his hidden tastes and unexpected charms.
The December 12 episode of “I Live Alone” captures Kim’s restful off-season time in Korea. Newly released stills show his high-rise home with floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking the Seoul skyline, truly befitting the title “a major leaguer’s sweet home.” The neatly arranged kitchen and dressing room, along with uniforms, trophies, and even his golden “Gold Glove,” highlight his career achievements.
Kim Ha-seong built a distinguished record in the KBO League, including ranking first in runs scored in 2019, winning the Golden Glove for three consecutive years from 2018 to 2020, and serving as Korea’s national team shortstop. Even after advancing to Major League Baseball, he made history by becoming the first Korean player to win a Gold Glove in 2023, surprising baseball fans worldwide and earning the nickname “Awesome Kim.”
Now in his fifth year playing in the U.S., he shares how precious his time in Korea has become, saying, “Korea feels more like home, so I put more effort into it.” His unexpected morning routine also draws attention. As soon as he wakes up, he plays Latin music, revealing, “I really like Latin music,” which raises curiosity about how he developed this unique taste.
A humorous moment is also captured when he crouches in the shower booth to wash his hair. His broad shoulders and athletic physique fill the booth, drawing admiration, while his crouched posture offers an unexpectedly relatable and charming side.
The major leaguer’s breakfast routine is also revealed. Viewers will see him sitting at the table focusing solely on “chewing exercise,” prompting curiosity about how he maintains his condition during the off-season. Known for his effortless yet stylish fashion, he also shares his personal style philosophy, raising anticipation for his going-out look.
Kim Ha-seong’s off-season life in Korea, starring the Major League Gold Glove winner himself, will air on December 12 at 11:10 PM on MBC’s “I Live Alone.”
