"The score difference wasn't that big, but we replaced it. As we only play with domestic players for the time being, we try to focus on the games that we can win."

After five consecutive wins in the opening period, he has lost two games in a row. However, we don't know how long the defeat will continue. As such, the absence of foreign players is fatal for the V-League team.

However, KEPCO coach Kwon Young-min was confident. KEPCO was completely defeated by a set score of 0-3 against Hyundai Capital in the second round of the Dodram V League at Suwon Indoor Gymnasium on the 14th.




Coach Kwon Young-min said, `There were bad news in the first year, in the second year, and every year. I can overcome it again this year," he said with a smile.

"You don't lose because you don't have a foreign player. You don't win just because you have one. Except for the first set, I'm satisfied. Yamato's cheeks died a little today, so there were many balls that were hard to attack. I'll talk to Yamato a little more."

Coach Kwon Young-min said of the second set, which he missed 28-30 after deuce, "The opponent's serve was so exquisite. I held on well to the strong serve." Then "It's rather fortunate that it's still early in the season. There are a lot of games left," he said, holding himself together.




Korea Electric Power Corp.'s Lim Sung-jin is developing rapidly every year. Now he has shown off his presence, which can be called the ace of the team.

"I have basic skills and experience. He also has a lot of experience in the national team. It's not the old Lim Sung-jin anymore. He should take over Shin Young-seok and Seo Jae-deok's baton as the main player, not as a player who gives and grows opportunities. It was good early last season and then sagged in the middle. I know it myself. He's taking good care of himself. I hope your skills will be consistent now."

In particular, it was Lim Sung-jin at KEPCO who led the second set to deuce's feast. However, KEPCO replaced Lim Sung-jin in the third set 13-17, Seo Jae-deok in the 14-18 and Koo Kyo-hyuk in the 16-20. All three were the team's main guns and key players of the day's game. He missed the second set at the end of the deuce, and although he was on the verge of shutdown, the game was not over yet.




Head coach Kwon Young-min gave the players a goal of '2nd round 3 wins and 3 losses' I'm trying to make choices and focus. The score difference wasn't that big, but I let him rest. There's a KB Insurance match on Saturday, so I'll bet on a winnable game," he stressed.

Hyundai Capital Manager Philip Blanc said, `It went as planned tactically. I'm satisfied. The players' immersion was good, too"It was well received.

Then "I want to give 5 out of 10 points to our team's completeness so far. Because there is still room for further development."The V-League has too many games. There is not enough rest, and there is not enough time to enjoy victory. There is also a limit to developing young and talented players" was also quoted as saying.

As for Hwang Seung-bin, who started in two weeks, "When I first came here, I was too focused on Leo-Heo Subong. These days, they also use Xinfeng and fastballs well. "Our team has veterans, but there are also players who are starting the season like Xinfeng Jinyoung Kim Jung Tae-joon." You need to give confidence and confidence," he stressed.

Regarding the use of more diverse attack options at the end of the second set, not Leo, "It is not easy to order something from the setter during the game. As much as possible, let them know the current situation and help them decide for themselves. I leave the decision to the setter."
