Hyundai Engineering & Construction's Hillstate Volleyball Team began summer training in Muan, Jeollanam-do from the 9th.
There are no foreign players or Asian quarter players in the five-day training, but Kim Da-in, Lee Da-hyun and Jung Ji-yoon, who participated in the 2024 Volleyball Nation League (VNL), are all joining hands and working together.
Last season, Hyundai Engineering & Construction won the title for the first time in 13 years since the 2010-2011 season. The goal of the new season is to keep the top spot as well.
FA Jung Ji-yoon remained, and Lee Da-hyun, who was aiming to advance overseas, maintained his winning power. He also renewed his contract with foreign player Moma and Asian quarter player Wi-Fi.
A situation where we can prepare for the new season while maintaining a big framework. However, considering that other clubs have strengthened their weaknesses, such as recruiting outside FA or recruiting new Asian quarter players, there was a view that Hyundai Engineering & Construction's 'maintenance' might rather weaken its power. In particular, through this Asian quarter, China's 1-meter-96-tall middle blocker Zhang Wei is expected to use more Asian quarter players than before, with Pepper Savings Bank's uniform.

Although there is no significant change, coach Kang thinks that the main player of the championship can become stronger as it remains. Coach Kang said, `We could also go in the same pattern because our operations were exposed, but on the contrary, in terms of team work, we brought more stability.'

The growth of national team players is also an expectation factor. The women's volleyball team appointed Fernando Morales in March. Setter Kim Da-in has been playing low and fast toss for the national team. Lee Da-hyun and Jung Ji-yoon, who have connected the faster toss to the attack, said "I think the offense using the low and fast toss played in the national team will work in the V-League as well."They even said in unison.
Coach Kang also said, "(Kim) Da-in, who is also a setter for our team, thinks it's okay to work with the players, so I'm trying to move quickly on the pattern."Wi-Fi is also a fast style. Moma is pursuing a high ball, but I'll have to study how she does it when she joins in August."
