Lee Jung Hoo, coming in at third, is capturing public attention as fans anticipate his performance with the San Francisco Giants in the upcoming season. Kim Ha Seong’s brand was significantly boosted after being named the starting shortstop and fifth batter for the Seoul Series’ first game on the 20th. Meanwhile, Hwang Hee-chan’s ranking dropped three spots compared to February, likely due to a recent hamstring injury that made him be substituted during a game.
He continued to share that the detailed analysis of the star brand big data in March showed that brand consumption increased by 75.95%, brand issues by 65.54%, brand communication by 69.15%, and brand spread by 71.75%.
