Heungkuk Life named Chinese middle blocker Huang Luilai in a tryout in the Asian quarter in May.

"Pitch was one of the players I watched during the tryout as he was a strong attack using elasticity and good blocking timing."I will work well with the setter and try to show the fans a lively attack in the upcoming season."
Fitch said, `I am happy to play for Heungkuk Life with world-class player Kim Yeon-koung. I heard that many fans come to the stadium. I will do my best to show fans a satisfactory play. "I will do my best to join the team.
An official from Heungkuk Life Insurance Co., Ltd. said, `We will fully support Peach to blend into the team through adaptation to the team" he said.
