There is Kim Yeon-koung, the best player, but his partner showed weakness in another outside heater. When Kim Yeon-kyung went to the rear, there was inevitably an imbalance in the attack as the attack did not go well on the outside heater that went to the potential. In the end, attacks were inevitably concentrated on Kim Yeon-kyung and foreign players, and physical difficulties came at the end of the season.
This season is different. The 21-year-old young fourth-year striker is getting more and more energetic. Jung Yoon-joo's performance was quite noticeable in the home game against Hyundai Engineering & Construction in the Dodram 2024 ￣ 2025 V-League held at Samsan World Gymnasium in Incheon on the 24th.
On the day, Jung Yoon-joo scored 21 points. A new record for most points scored in an individual game. Kim Yeon-koung scored the most points for both teams with 28 points, and Jung Yoon-joo scored the second overall.
Jung Yoon-joo, who came to Heungkuk Life as the third-ranked player in the second round in the 2021 ￣ 2022 rookie draft, showed his potential by playing in 30 games and playing 80 sets in the first season and scoring 203 points. However, he was rarely seen in the next two seasons.
This season, Heungkuk Life's head coach Avonja is boldly using Jung Yoon-joo as a starting player. Many point out that the defense is still weak, but it is growing by showing good performance in offense.
Jung Yoon-joo, who gave up the second set because he did not receive the serve that came to him properly in the second set 35-36, played a role in bringing the victory by recording a serve ace at 25-25 in the third set.
The attack success rate was 36.5%, which was better in attack than foreign player Tutku (14 points, attack success rate 26.7%).
He ranked 21st overall with 82 points this season and 11th among Korean players.

Jung Yoon-joo, who came to the interview room after the game, said, "I can't be 100% satisfied, but I think I played an important role in the team. I think the previous record score was 20 points, but I think I've grown a lot more than then. There is a lot to grow in the future."
He feels that he is growing as he goes to the game. Jung Yoon-ju said, "'It's right that you're growing, but that doesn't mean you're continuing to go up.'" "It seems like you're growing again, but you're falling, and then you're coming back up like that."
Going out as the main player will allow him to play his own game even if the psychological burden is low. "In the past, when I was a substitute, I had to show everything to that one, so I felt a little heavy."Jung Yoon-ju said "But now I have confidence that I believe in it, so even if I make a mistake, I want to do this next time, and I try not to do it next time after figuring out what I did wrong."
Heungkuk Life's game is going well because there is a domestic spiker that can hit Kim Yeon-kyung even when she is in the back. It has already been nine consecutive wins since the opening. There is definitely a share of Jung Yoon-ju.
