I'm worried about the setter again. IBK Industrial Bank, which recruited the Thai national team's main setter Phonepoon last season, had difficulty in timing because of the too-fast toss.

Coach Kim Ho-chul even asked Phonepoon to post it a little late.

It's the opposite this time. The problem is that the newly recruited Chinese setter Chen Shintong is rather slow as Ponfun left.



The Industrial Bank of Korea lost the set score 2-3 against Jeong Kwan-jang in Group B of the women's team at the 2024 Tongyeong and Dodram Cup Professional Volleyball Championship held at Tongyeong Gymnasium on September 30. Victoria worked hard with 31 points, and Lee Ju-ah, who moved to FA, scored 10 points with seven blocks and Yuk Seo-young also added 10 points, but fell behind Jeong Kwan-jang's power in the last five sets.

Coach Kim Ho-chul said after the game, "(Hwang) Min-kyung and (Lee) So-young were not feeling well, so they had to play almost none. "When I see Soyoung keep giving me the ball even though she told me not to give it to her because her shoulder hurts, I think she was a little frustrated as well."

Coach Kim said he would leave Chun Shintong, the setter for the game, without saying much, but he was often seen instructing him during operation time.

Director Kim said "I didn't talk today. I just said a few words because I was really frustrated. "You have to think about it and know how to use the striker. Without thinking whether the striker is ready or not, 'I just need to raise the ball up'You shouldn't raise your cheeks with that thought. You have to be responsible as a setter. The setter needs to pull the team," he said, expressing his regret for the pain of heaven.



The recent trend is fast volleyball, but Chen Shintong's toss is slow. During the training period, head coach Kim continues to teach Chen Shintong, but it is not easy.

Director Kim said, `It's not easy to change the setter. It is not easy for the setter to change by himself and handle multiple strikers. I think our strikers should be active." Lee So-young and Lee Ju-ah, who are recruited by FA this time, play fast volleyball. Director Kim said, `I asked Chen Shintong to do it while practicing, but he doesn't (try). So I left it alone. He expressed his frustration.

I gave a positive review of Victoria. Victoria's attack success rate was only 14% in the first set, but she scored nine points in the second set, raising it to 57% in the second set. However, it fell back to 25% in the third set, and the ups and downs were severe. He scored 31 points, but his attack success rate was 33.7 percent. Coach Kim Ho-chul said, `I thought I should do this much during the practice game, but when I played the actual game, I would have been embarrassed to know that it wasn't. He said, "I told you to hit me even if it's blocked as much as you want."If you're good with Toss, you're good at hitting RBIs." My personality doesn't give up and I'm trying to keep going. It can develop."
