‘Carpe diem’. This Latin phrase meaning ‘Be faithful to the present moment you are living in’ became famous through the movie ‘Dead Poets Society’.

Even today, many people take the message Mr. Keating delivered to his students in the movie as their life philosophy.

The life of Ronnie Dawson (29), a foreign player for the professional baseball team Kiwoom Heroes, has been full of twists and turns.

When he was selected by the Houston Astros in the second round (61st overall) of the 2016 Major League Baseball (MLB) rookie draft, it seemed like his life would be filled with rosy flowers.

However, Dawson could not overcome the competition in the minor leagues and was released after playing in four major league games. Last year, he had a tearful time in the American independent league.

While Dawson was contemplating retirement, he also prepared for a second life as a college baseball coach.

On the surface, it was a gloomy life with no future in sight.

But Dawson lived a happier life than anyone else.

Dawson, with his cheerful personality, never lost his positive thinking.

Even when Kiwoom Heroes offered him a contract worth a small sum of $85,000, or approximately 118 million won, in July last year, he didn’t hesitate much.

Living in Korea was a ‘bonus’ for Dawson, who had been considering retirement.

He came to Korea with a bright expression and did his best to enjoy his life in Korea.

Dawson was the first to approach his teammates and build friendships. He also participated in various activities outside the baseball field.

I learned everything I could about Korean food and culture. I also downloaded apps and studied Korean.

That’s not all. Dawson, who loves dancing, has immersed herself in Korean life by learning choreography from K-pop artists.

Many foreign players feel the mental pressure of being kicked out at any time, but Dawson did not.

The positive thought of ‘I will enjoy this moment right now’ became a great weapon for Dawson.

Dawson, who succeeded in renewing his contract after posting a batting average of 0.336 in 57 games last year, has emerged as the best foreign hitter in the KBO League this year.

As of the 20th, he has become Kiwoom’s main hitter, with a batting average of 0.345, 10 home runs, and 48 RBIs in 86 games this year.

Dawson still enjoys every moment.

Dawson, who is on leave from Ohio State University, has recently been continuing his studies through online classes.

After the away game against SSG Landers held at Incheon SSG Landers Field on the 21st, he said, “Studying is fun,” and “I’ve been a bit busy with my college assignments recently, but now that I’ve finished my assignments, I can focus more on baseball. I think it’s also leading to good game results.”

Dawson, who started as the second batter and left fielder that day, led the team to a 7-2 victory by going 1-for-3 with 1 walk, 3 RBIs, and 2 runs, including a 3-run home run in the top of the 8th inning that sealed the game with a 3-2 lead.

He struck a comical ‘ball heart’ pose when reporters tried to take his picture.

He also said, “I recently sent a direct message (DM) to girl group New Jeans on social media to cheer them on, but I didn’t get a reply,” and laughed, saying, “I think I’ll be able to do better if I get a reply.”

Dawson is enjoying life. 카지노사이트
