In 2016, the Chicago Cubs won the World Series. It was a normal climb in 108 years, and attracted worldwide attention. In the major leagues, the Cleveland Indians are now the team that hasn’t had the longest winning trophy. The Indians have not won the championship since 1948.

In professional baseball in Japan, Hiroshima Toyo Kaf has not been on top of the Japanese series since 1984. Toyo Carp won the Central League for three consecutive years from 2016 to 2018, but was unable to win the Japan Series.

Hanshin Tigers follows him. After being at the top in 1985, there has been no victory in the Japanese series. Hanshin Tigers entered the Japanese series in 2014 with Oh Seung-hwan finishing, but was satisfied with his second place when defeated by Fukuoka Softbank Hawks, whom Lee Dae-ho played, with a 1-4 loss.

The KBO League has a relatively long history of “winning droughts” while the United States or Japan. However, there are three teams with more than 20 years of victories.
It’s Lotte, LG, and Hanwha who didn’t enjoy the normal thrill in the 2000s after experiencing the Korean series championship in the 1990s.

In Korean professional baseball, there is a word ‘Ellotgi’. It is based on the first letters of LG, Lotte and KIA, which alternated the last ones from 2001 to 2008. From 2001 to 2004, Lotte, KIA in 2005 and 2007, and LG in 2006 and 2008 were the lowest.

However, KIA fans don’t like to team up with LG and Lotte. KIA, which won nine times in the 1980s and 1990s under the name Haitai, continued to top the Korean series in 2009 and 2017 after the 2000s.

So in recent years, teams that haven’t won for a long time are often called ‘Ellothan’. On May 5, before the opening of the KBO 2020 league, I marked ‘Ellot Han’.

LG is said to have been able to play “Autumn Baseball” since last year, and Lotte is attracting attention as an explosive team this season. At the end of the practice game, Hanwha has many negative prospects. Regardless, the desire of fans from all three teams to win is eager.
