Can KB Insurance become a 'dark horse' that shakes the top ranks.
KB Insurance has become 'Complete' Now, no team seems to be able to see KB Insurance as a pushover.
KB Insurance won the set score 3-1 in the second round match against KEPCO in the men's 2024-2025 Dodram V League at Suwon Indoor Gymnasium on the 17th. He won his first victory over KEPCO in the crisis of losing in the first round, and beat KEPCO again in the second round, increasing the season's victory to two wins.
KB Insurance, which was evaluated as less powerful than the winners. There was also bad news before the season. This was because Rivera, who was ambitiously brought, resigned due to health problems ahead of the opening. Coach Rivera, who showed potential with a fruitful organizational volleyball in the KOVO Cup, had no choice but to increase his disappointment.
However, he is establishing himself as an acting director of Blanco. In time, Na Kyung-bok, a big gun, was the first to return after completing his mandatory military service. On top of that, setter Hwang Taek-ui joined after completing his career as a managing director. As soon as Hwang Taek-ui returned, he led the Korea Electric Power Corporation to a shutdown victory.
The assortments were made for Apogit Spiker Villena, built-in outside heater Na Kyung-bok, and field commander Hwang Taek-ui. And veteran middle blocker Park Sang-ha is back. Park Sang-ha, who became an FA ahead of this season and joined hands with KB Insurance, had to continue to look at his team's defeat due to a right calf injury suffered just before the opening. However, he stepped on the court in the second round match against KEPCO and scored nine points, including four blocks, leading his team to its second victory. Along with Cha Young-seok, who was acquired through a trade with Hyundai Capital, he completely erased his weaknesses. KB Insurance recorded 15 blocks on the day.

But it's not the time to like it yet. As mentioned above, KB Insurance won two games just for KEPCO without foreign main gun Elian. This is the real test from now on. It is important to see what kind of competitiveness they show in the game against the top teams in the normal power.
Acting coach Blanco said "All the players have joined, but I don't think it's a complete team yet. There are some areas where players come in and out of the game. You have to train so that good things can come out to the game. A match is not a practice. be aware of. And we are trying to make up for it."
KB Insurance will play Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance on the 22nd and Woori Card on the 27th. Only when good results come out in these two games can we create a perfect rebound atmosphere.
