Did the head coach's 'experiment' give energy to the entire team. Woori Card has won two consecutive games without an ace. I didn't miss the opportunity I got from my opponent's fatal mistake.
Woori Card won the set score 3-1 (17-25, 25-23, 25-23, 25-21, 25-21) in the second round of the men's V-League at Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul on the 27th.
This day was KB Insurance Na Kyung-bok's return to Jangchung. Na Kyung-bok has been a star for nine years since joining Woori Card in 2015, and changed her uniform to FA after last season.
Na Kyung-bok also scored 16 points in the first round, but Woori Card won. Unlike the last game, setter Hwang Taek-ui was added, but again Na Kyung-bok failed to cross his home team.
"Since Hwang Taek's return, our team has been improving day by day," said acting KB Insurance manager Martin Blanco, who met before the game. "It's a big help not only in terms of skills but also in terms of mental strength." Na Kyung-bok is a player representing the V-League and Korea. It has slowed down a bit recently, but it will show good performance again like at the beginning of the season. He also explained, "As there are many good outside heaters, we will use players who fit the situation."

Woori Card finished the first round with 4 wins and 2 losses, but it was in crisis due to the injury of captain and ace Ahi. Although he lost two consecutive games at the beginning of the second round, he turned the mood around by catching the last Hyundai Capital match with a shutdown.
Mauricio Paes, manager of Woori Card, said "The entire team system was shaken by Ahi's absence. There is nothing in particular to say about recruiting replacement players. Then "You shouldn't be a team that's dominated by one player. You have to adapt to various conditions or situations. (Setter) Han Tae-joon also needed time," he stressed.
On the other hand, Woori Card's Han Tae-joon is a 20-year-old young setter in his third year of debut. However, he stands out at an early age in a setter position where seasonedness is important, establishing himself as a next-generation star. As the head coach said, Han Tae-joon's confident ball allocation and spirited pass, who became accustomed to the reality of missing the main gun, stood out.

Woori Card played the first set as an experimental lineup on the same day following the last Hyundai Capital match. In the absence of Ahi, Han Sung-jung and Song Myung-geun and (Apogit) started with the exception of Ali in the Asian quarter, native main gun Kim Ji-han, and main setter Han Tae-joon.
On the other hand, KB Insurance led 8-4 and 17-12 with Na Kyung-bok's Biye or Hwang Kyung-min's triangle formation gaining strength from the beginning. Na Kyung-bok roared with six points, a 100% attack success rate, and a serve ace, and Villena completed the first set victory with a high-altitude bombing like a fish in water.
The second set is Woori Card's counterattack. At 12-12, Ali slammed his opponent's court, crushing his opponent 16-13, 19-14. KB Insurance's last-minute chase with Na Kyung-bok at the forefront was cut from 23 points. Hwang Taek's boldness, who chose Lee Kang-won's quick opening at 24-23, stood out.

The third set was the watershed of the day's victory. Woori Card gave up its early momentum with Na Kyung-bok's consecutive serve aces, and even allowed Hwang Taek's pass paint to give up the lead 4-9 and 9-11. He succeeded in chasing at the end of the set, and Kim Ji-han's consecutive points tied the score at 22-22.
Here, Lee Sang-hyun and Han Tae-joon's consecutive blocks broke out to make it 24-22, and KB Insurance Hwang Kyung-min scored again to be chased by one point. However, in his sixth year this year, national outside heater Hwang Kyung-min committed a fatal error of sub-line over, and the third set was taken by Woori Card.

Woori Card, which gained momentum, led 6-1 and 11-7 in the fourth set, but allowed KB Insurance to tie the game at 15-15. After that, it's literally one step and one step. Woori Card's Kim Ji-han and Song Myung-geun scored, and the opponent's mistakes were added. KB Insurance followed veteran Park Sang-ha's heavy performance by adding Villena's shot at every crisis.
However, Woori Card made it 22-20 by blocking Villena's attack following Kim Ji-han's decisive shot, and Ali's rear attack continued to determine the victory. The final winning point was up to Song Myung-geun.
Woori Card won Kim Ji-han (14 points) Ali (11 points) and Lee Sang-hyun and Han Tae-joon (four blocks) beat the opponent's rise at every crisis. For KB Insurance, Villena scored 29 points and Na Kyung-bok scored 17 points, but she was hampered by 28 mistakes.
