Specifically, in Comparative Example 1 in which a value of Relational expression 1 was below the range of the present disclosure, a bainite fraction was reduced, causing a decrease in strength. In Comparative Example 2 in which the value of Relational expression 1 exceeded the range of the present disclosure, bainite was excessively formed, resulting in poor impact toughness.
