Han Jun-su's two rooms after purchasing a ticket to Daegu... KIA, going to the 5th game.

(Jeonnam Gwangju = Yonhap News) Reporter Dae-ho Lee = In the end, the teams that advanced to this year's Korean Series (KS) were decided until the 5th game of the playoffs (PO, 3 wins out of 5).

KIA came from behind to win 4-2 in the home game against the Samsung Lions in the 4th game of the 2026 Shinhan SOL KBO League postseason PO held at Kia Champions Field in Gwangju, Jeollanam-do on the 30th.

KIA, with a series record of 2 wins and 2 losses, will move to Samsung Lions Park in Daegu on the 1st of next month and hold the final match for a ticket to KS.

The main character who breathed life into the gloomy KIA is Han Jun-su.

He played as the designated hitter number 6 following KIA's batting lineup adjustment, and served as a problem solver with 3 hits and 2 RBIs in 4 at-bats.

Above all, both RBI and hits were nutritious.

Junsu Han, who struck out in his first at-bat in the second inning, appeared on first and second base with two outs and two outs in the fourth inning, trailing 0-1.

Then, he lightly pushed Samsung starter Chris Fedek's 150 km/h high fastball, resulting in a timely hit to tie the game on the third base line, and called Kim Do-young, who was on second base, home.

The infield hit that came out in the 6th inning with 1 out and runners on first base when the team was behind 1-2, although it did not result in a score, was the decisive blow that shook Samsung's mound management plan.

Han Jun-su's fast batted ball was deflected by the mitt of Samsung first baseman Lewin Diaz, and at this time, Samsung second baseman Ryu Ji-hyuk made a bad apology to the leading runner who was playing third base, giving KIA the opportunity to get on second and third base with one out.

In the end, Samsung dropped its starting pitcher and brought in Seung-min Lee.

Junsu Han's hit made Samsung's bullpen come out early.

This led to KIA’s comeback in the 7th inning.

After one out, Kim Do-young went to second base due to an error by Samsung third baseman Kim Young-woong, and Harold Castro tied the score at 2-2 with a timely hit.

After Na Seong-beom retired with a strikeout, Kim Seon-bin's heavy hit gave KIA the opportunity to reach first and third base with two outs, and here Junsu Han came to bat again.

Against pitcher Lee Jae-hee, who had been replaced, Junsu Han hit a ball like a bullet that passed by the first baseman and even brought Castro home.

It was the final hit that turned the game around to 3-2.

KIA did not stop there and took the victory by running away with a 4-2 lead with Ha Joo-seok's timely hit.

Junsu Han, who already has one home run in this series, stood tall as the leading contributor to Daegu by driving in three hits in Game 4, which was a cliffhanger game.
