Jung Sung Hwan (정승환). One of the best Korean metal fusion bladers during the metal phase of Beyblade. We were privileged enough to get in touch with him and were granted permission to share his story.

 Product includes everything in the picture.

Sung Hwan first started getting into Beyblades because of his younger brother's passion for the anime series and toys. After a while, he decided to enter his first tournament, held by Sonokong in Seoul. He entered the tournament feeling nervous but excited. There were many close calls, but in the end, he was able to miraculously get the 1st place in his very first tournament. Which also sparked his passion for Beyblades, and he decided he wanted to be a pro blader. From then on, it was tournament after tournament for him. He was able to follow his initial success with a lot of awards and prize beys. Which earned him a reputation for being one of the competitive pro bladers at that time in South Korea. Due to the age limitation, he only had a year left to compete in the professionally-held tournaments. He was able to participate in over 80 tournaments and win over 50 awards. Which earned him a place in the international WBBA tournament held in Japan. At the time, Sonokong was focused more on profit maximization than diversifying the beyblades. As a result, the majority of their releases are only popular beyblades. Korean bladers didn’t have all the necessary resources to experiment and to learn compared to Japanese bladers. However, with total confidence and experience, Sung Hwan managed to get into the quarter-finals, which was a huge success for a 6th grader or any bladers at the time. He was presented many times in Korean newspapers and articles for his achievements. Although most of them are lost, we were able to find one article about him.

Lovely items, I am curious as to why they are listed with a price in the first place if they are not for sale?
