Seo Jang-hoon Returns to Coach Hot Blood Basketball Team 2 With Jeong Jin-woon and Chanyeol

Seo Jang-hoon has returned as the head coach of Rising Eagles on SBS's 'Hot Blood Basketball Team 2.' In Season 2, which premiered on the 5th, he began a journey toward national dominance, leading the team with the goal of becoming the strongest amateur team.

The core is an attitude closer to basketball than variety entertainment. Seo Jang-hoon said, "Basketball is a sport where you can feel all the joys and sorrows of life within a narrow court." He captured the emotions encountered on the court, from the euphoria of victory and the bitterness of defeat to the fear of injury and the process of sweating alongside teammates.

As a former player, he did not stop at just creating laughter but focused on showing the growth of the members. He coldly pointed out situations where matches against professional second teams or university teams were not easy, and set a plan to prove their skills in the amateur league where hidden strong teams from all over the country gather.

Rising Eagles Reunited at 'Reunion Day'

The starting point of Season 2 was 'Rising Eagles Reunion Day'. After reuniting with the existing members, Seo Jang-hoon did not stop at sharing their joy but immediately examined the players' play and condition in detail.

In the comprehensive basic physical strength and skill test, he diagnosed the players' status based on precise data. After identifying individual skills and weaknesses, he suggested customized training directions to strengthen team organization.

Reinforcements also continued. This season, a legendary coaching staff has joined, and new members including EXO's Chanyeol, Jo Jin-se, Julien Kang, and NOWZ Jinhyuk have joined. Coach Tony Akins and the newly joined coach Kim Tae-sul will lead the coaching staff to boost the team's strength.

Jeong Jin-woon's Return, First Opponent is North Gyeongsang Fire Headquarters

Actor Jeong Jin-woon, who played a key forward in Season 1, also stood on the court again. On his way to the first filming, Jeong Jin-woon expressed his changed determination, saying, "I am looking forward to it. Before, I just wanted to play basketball quickly, but now I feel like I want to try out tactics quickly."

Jeong Jin-woon, who showed physical strength and driving ability in Season 1, foreshadowed his growth into a more solid all-around forward this season. He also expressed his will to implement Coach Seo Jang-hoon's tactics on the court.

The first opponent for Rising Eagles is the North Gyeongsang Fire Headquarters team. Attention is focused on what kind of performance Rising Eagles, who have been building teamwork since last season, will show in their first match, and how Jeong Jin-woon's driving ability and Seo Jang-hoon's tactics will mesh. 'Hot Blood Basketball Team 2' airs every Sunday at 11:05 PM on SBS.
