Rainbow, I’m Doing Well Alone’, will be revealed.
Kwon Do-kyu is a pitcher for the professional baseball team Kia Tigers, and he played a significant role in leading his team to victory in the 2024 Korean Series. Having joined the team in 2022, he has garnered great love from baseball fans as a second-year 'Young Tiger' with excellent performance, showcasing his Gen Z charm through his clever celebrations and social media interactions, which have captivated many fans.
Living alone in Gwangju for two years, Kwon Do-kyu will showcase his ‘Do-kyu House’, decorated with his favorite items such as clothes, hats, and perfumes. He expresses his special affection for his living space, saying, “I moved up to the first team while living in this place.”
