Shinhan Bank had a rough start to the season. He lost three games in a row. Former coach Gunathan put down the baton in three games as his health suddenly deteriorated. Shinhan Bank has appointed coach Lee Si-joon as its acting coach. Acting head coach Lee Si-joon felt a great sense of responsibility, saying, `It's really hard.' "For female athletes, the initial atmosphere is important," he said. You have to drag it well so that it doesn't go down too much. I believe that if we manage the atmosphere well while building confidence, we will have a chance to rebound."
The absence of the head coach is painful. The power leakage was not large. Although he failed to catch FA Sonia, he recruited Choi Yi-sam, Shin Yi-seul, a Jihyun Shin who is evaluated as 'real'. In the Asian quarter, he picked Rika Tanimura, the most outstanding center. However, the appearance of collapsing at the match point is repeated. Acting head coach Lee Si-joon said, `It's because I'm inexperienced to lose the match. I told the players that I don't have to be intimidated because it's my responsibility. I'll take responsibility, so I asked each of them to take the initiative, thinking they're the ace" he said.
KB, on the other hand, is on the rise. KB was pointed out that Park Ji-soo's power has weakened significantly as he advanced overseas after last season. Many experts rated KB as a weak player this season. However, KB coach Kim Wan-soo changed the team's color well. It is erasing the perception that 'KB is Park Ji-soo's team'. He did well by settling down a fast and powerful three-point shooting basketball.
Manager Kim Wan-soo remained vigilant about Shinhan Bank. Shinhan Bank has recently lost consecutive games, but its performance itself could not be ignored. Manager Kim Wan-soo said "(Shinhan Bank) is not bad. I saw the players working hard combatively. You have to take the lead in the rebound fight," he said carefully.

The crisis came without fail in the fourth quarter. Shinhan Bank scored first and ran away 53-46. As the game was heading towards the end, the shooting success rate suddenly dropped. The lead was reduced little by little and narrowed to two points. However, with two minutes left in the game, Jihyun Shin scored consecutive points and ran again 59-52.
KB Kang Yi-seul tried to score three points with 25 seconds left in the fourth quarter. This shot is off the mark. Shinhan Bank won the defensive rebound and was confident of victory.
