Jung took the mound in his first exhibition game against KT. He faced three players in the fourth inning. His ball control was shaky. He allowed his first batter, Kim Min-hyuk, to walk.

Reflecting on Jung's first exhibition game, Yeom said, "I haven't found the form I want to play yet. There is something that I felt was good about in the U.S. We cannot force players like Jung to give directions."
