The connection between KT Wiz manager Lee Kang-cheol and new foreign player Logan Allen may have been destined, with their first encounter occurring unexpectedly last year. Allen, then playing for the NC Dinos, initiated a conversation with Lee Kang-cheol when they met at a restaurant.

During their chance meeting, Allen reportedly approached Lee Kang-cheol, complimenting the restaurant and striking up a conversation. This friendly gesture marked the beginning of their acquaintance, hinting at a potential future connection.

The article suggests that this initial interaction was more than just a casual encounter, implying it was a sign of things to come. Allen has now joined the KT Wiz, bringing his skills to Lee Kang-cheol's team.

While Allen's performance on the field remains to be seen, his positive first impression and the seemingly fated circumstances of his meeting with the manager have set a promising tone.
