[서울신문] ‘Wow~heung’ Heungkuk Life 4 consecutive losses… Kim Yeon-kyung struggles alone

GS Caltex ranked first in the chin chase

‘World Star’ Kim Yeon-gyeong could not hold the center of the shaking Heungkuk Life.

Heungkuk Life Insurance lost helplessly with a set score of 0-3 (21-25 10-25 10-25) at the home game against IBK Industrial Bank in the 2020-21 season held at Incheon Gyeyang Gymnasium on the 16th.

As sisters Jae-young Lee and Da-young, who were punished by the team for indefinite suspension due to school violence, disappeared, the team atmosphere subsided. Heungkuk Life Insurance suffered the most scoring loss in one V-League game this season, losing by 34 points in total points.

Heungkuk Life Insurance recorded 4 consecutive losses this season, the most. With 6 games left in the regular league, Heungkuk Life Insurance still ranks first with 50 points (17 wins and 7 losses). If you only add 1 point, you will advance to the postseason by yourself.

However, if the worst atmosphere like this continues, we cannot guarantee to be ranked first in the regular league. The word’Ooh Woo-heung’ (Heungkuk Life Insurance won anyway) has been put in. Second place GS Caltex (45 points, 15 wins, 9 losses) has been chasing down to the bottom. If the losing streak continues, he may be allowed to win a reversal. Heungkuk Life’s defeat in the shutdown on this day, which is the first game after the punishment of school violence, is more painful. Compared to the one set of four games against IBK in rounds 1-4, we can guess that it is the worst recession.

Although Kim Yeon-kyung led his juniors and played extensively, it was not enough to reverse the atmosphere. Kim Yeon-kyung scored 12 points, the only double-digit score on the team. He also actively participated in the defense. Digg, who kicks the opponent’s ball, has the most 18 hits on the team.

Manager Park Mi-hee said, “The captain, Kim Yeon-kyung, is leading the players well. Other sisters are also helping.” ‘Captain’ Kim Yeon-kyung is holding the center, but even in his energetic appearance, a hard look was strong. On the other hand, Heungkuk Life’s foreign player Bruna scored only one point. On the 11th, he scored only 7 points before the Korea Expressway Corporation. A volleyball player who requested anonymity said on the 17th, “It seems difficult for Heungkuk Life to achieve a reversal.
