Recently, Park Seung-cheol Hair Studio’s second brand, Park Gong Hair Seoul Forest House, cut the hair that it had grown for three years and delivered it to the ‘Hair Sharing Movement Headquarters for Young Cancer Patients’ (Mother Movement Headquarters). Lee Yu-seok performed on the KPGA tour with his shoulder-length hair flowing. Donated hair is made into custom wigs for pediatric cancer patients. He said, “I have been growing my hair since 2022 with the intention of donating it,” and added, “I hope it will be of some help to pediatric cancer patients.”

Lee Yu-seok won the 2022 Challenge Tour twice and has been playing on the KPGA Tour since last year. This year, he only ranked 81st in Genesis Points and was unable to secure his seed next year, but he won the seed again by tying for 11th place in the qualifying tournament. Their best result was a tie for 10th place in last year’s Woori Financial Live Championship.

I will be leaving for training in Vietnam in January next year. Lee Yoo-seok said, “Personally, I had an intense season. I learned a lot and accurately identified what needs to be improved,” and pledged, “I will do my best this winter to show a better performance in the 2025 season.”
