"Suddenly, the (toss) became so fast."

Will IBK Industrial Bank be reborn as a `new communication'. The change in the Industrial Bank of Korea's Cheonsintong has become the first step beyond natural enemy Heungkuk Life.

IBK Industrial Bank of Korea advanced to the semifinals by winning the set score 3-1 in the third Group B match of the Tongyeong Dodram Cup against Heungkuk Life Insurance on the 3rd.



The changes in heaven and earth have been noticeable all the time. Industrial Bank of Korea failed to adapt to the fast toss of foreign setter Ponpoon last year throughout the season, and failed to play in spring volleyball after the discord grew.

This is a problem because it's too slow. There is a sense of stability, but the slow pass that does not make use of the tall height of 1m78 did not properly make use of the team's strengths.



Kim Ho-chul, a former manager of the Industrial Bank of Korea, constantly demanded changes from Chen Shintong. Chun Shin-tong even laughed and answered the question 'What director Kim Ho-chul says most often'"Toss, rhythm, faster".

Can this Cup be a process of growth. Chen's performance in the previous two matches and the match against Heungkuk Life on the 4th was quite different. His faster movements made the head coach satisfied. Chen Shintong said, `I'm trying to match one more game every time. I believe the team members will do well."



Hwang Min-kyung said " (Yuk) Seo-young and I were a little embarrassed. It's a lot faster than the last game." Then "You speak Korean better than I thought. He explained that he understands almost everything about 'high', 'low', and even more'quickly', and that he understands a lot of what he usually says.

Hwang Min-kyung suffers from a chronic knee injury. It's an injury that you have to fight for the rest of your career.

Coach Kim Ho-chul was originally planning to give this cup a break as well. However, as Lee So-young fell out due to poor condition, Hwang Min-kyung was put in. He is a player full of sorry, gratitude, and pride in the back of the head coach's heart.

It may be the weight of the captain. Hwang Min-kyung said, `I feel like the players are more united than last season. Even if it's not an easy game, I don't give up."

In particular, when he celebrated after scoring consecutive points in 14-14 in the fourth set, he looked back, `I wanted to bring the atmosphere to us.'

A more stable receiving line is expected to be formed as veteran Hwang Min-kyung, Yuk Seo-young and FA Lee So-young, who have been intensively trained by Kim Ho-chul for three years, are reinforced. Also, newly recruited Lee Ju-ah forms a central offensive line with Choi Jung-min. Hwang Min-kyung expressed confidence, saying, `If I take it well, the center will live, and then our team will win.'

Director Kim Ho-chul picked 'I won' The moment I wanted to see was a scene where Chun Shin-tong blocked Heungkuk Life Insurance's desperate attack Kim Mi-yeon after a mega rally at 19-19. The moment when Chen Shintong's concentration, which did not miss the opponent's attack to the end, stood out. Chen Shintong also " (I saw the director at the moment) and I was really happy that he reacted so loudly. I ran because I wanted to be congratulated by the director."

The Industrial Bank of Korea will play a semifinal match against Hyundai Engineering & Construction at 4 p.m. on the same day. Hwang Min-kyung said, `The opponent's middle blocker is so good and there is even Moma. It's important to shake the serve as much as possible." Chen Shintong said, `I've watched a lot of games. I'll prepare according to the director's instructions"I helped.
