Park Jae-hong (Hangul: 박재홍, Hanja: 朴栽弘; born September 7, 1973, in Gwangju, South Korea) is a retired South Korean outfielder in the KBO League. Park was considered one of the best five-tool players in the KBO. He was the first player in KBO history to have 30 home runs and 30 stolen bases (in 1996) and the only player to have more than two seasons of 30 home runs and 30 stolen bases, doing so a record three times: (1996, 1998 and 2000). He was a 30-30 player in his debut season (1996), the only person to do so until Mike Trout, who did it in 2012.
