interview articles↓ In the past, the majority of the baseball team were Korean nationals. The cafeteria in the baseball team dormitory always had all-you-can-eat kimchi. However, now, there is only one player on the bench with Korean nationality, left fielder Yugo Kanemoto. By the way, he says that he only found out about his roots after entering high school. Kanemoto speaks candidly. 「I don't understand much Korean, so I thought maybe I was half Korean. Then I found out I was Korean. I was like, "Oh, I see. but I came here to play baseball."」 Kyoto International has a total of 138 students. Of those, 61 are baseball team members, most of whom are Japanese with no Korean roots.
An interview articles with Japanese member Iwabuchi↓ "You know, sometimes there are players with Korean nationality, right? It's the same at our school. We recruit players regardless of nationality, and when there are, we have them. Our chairman of the board and principal are Korean nationals, but they don't tell us to recruit players with Korean nationality. They know that it was us, Japanese people, who rebuilt the school when it was on the verge of collapse, so they let us do what we want. If you look at it, I don't think there is any other school that values its baseball team so much. School events wouldn't be as exciting without the baseball team, so they adjust their schedules to fit the baseball team. That's why when we're recruiting players, we always say, "Leave it to us, not the school." There is another school inside the school that specializes in baseball. That is the image Iwabuchi has. His greatest wish is to change the school song. "When I walk around recruiting sites, I'm often told to 'Why not change it for the new guys?.' If we do that, more players will come, I think. In fact, when we made our first appearance at Koshien in the 2021 selection tournament, we were one step away from changing it. We thought that if we just wrote a new song and created a fait accompli, everything would be fine. But it didn't work out. There are a lot of things to consider." END It seems that the students want to change the school song.
교토 국제고의 우승과 한국어로된 가사로 이루어진 교가가 울려퍼지는것에 가슴이 뭉클하다. 우리나라도 고교야구 대회에서도 참가팀 교가를 틀어주는 이런것은 본받으면 좋겠다. 아울러 한국어로 된 가사와 동해비다 그리고 한국의 학원으료 끝나는 가사를 그대로 틀어주는 일본의 개방성은 우리도 한번 생각해 봐아할 일이디. 만일 우리나라의 고교야구 대회에서 일본계 팀이 참가해서 일본어로 교가가 나오고 일본해가 어쩌고 일본의 학원이 들어갔다면 아마 난리가 났을거다
This school was originally a Korean school, but is now an international school, and over 70% of the students are Japanese with no Korean roots. Only one player in this starting lineup has Korean roots. Korean media should report the details, it is Koreans who will be embarrassed later. 90 out of 130 students at the school are Japanese with no Korean roots.
