Park Kyung-oan (born July 11, 1972) is a former South Korean baseball catcher and former Olympic bronze medalist. A four-time Golden Glove winner, Park is considered by many to be one of the best catchers in Korean baseball history. Playing for the Ssangbangwool Raiders, the Hyundai Unicorns, and the SK Wyverns during his career, his teams won five Korean Series championships.
Park started out his career as a member of the Ssangbangwool Raiders, playing for that team from 1991 to 1997, almost its entire existence. Park was then traded to the Hyundai Unicorns, where he played for the next five seasons. It was there, in the year 2000, where he had arguably the best season of his career, hitting .282 with 40 home runs, and winning the KBO League Most Valuable Player Award.
Park represented the Korean national baseball team in the 2009 World Baseball Classic, leading his team to second place.
In the 2010 season, Park became the first catcher in Korean baseball history to hit 300 career home runs. Park's 166 career hit-by-pitches are second-most in KBO history, after Choi Jeong.[1]
Since 2013, Park has worked as the bench coach for the SK Wyverns.[2]
