If the team goes well, the honor is given to the ace. On the other hand, if the grade drops, the arrow is bound to be directed at Ace.

Who is the ace of road construction. There are foreign players Nicolova, 'Volleyball Genius' Bae Yuna, but Kang So-hwi is the only player who has to carry the burden of the ace no matter what anyone says. The annual salary of 800 million won, the same as that of Kim Yeon-kyung (Hungkuk Life Insurance), which is the "Volleyball Emperor", contains such expectations.

The team went all the way to the abyss and survived a little, but Kang So-hwi's performance this season is actually not bad. He is ranked eighth in the score, and he is second in the domestic league after Kim Yeon-kyung. The names of Kang So-hwi, Kim Yeon-kyung, and Park Jung-ah (Pepper Savings Bank) caught in the gap between foreign players can be confirmed in various records such as offense overall (9th), open (10th), and time difference (8th). That's why these three get the highest annual salary.

However, their presence is lower than those of the two. Kim Jong-min, director of the Korea Expressway Corporation, said, `Kang So-hwi should now play the role of an ace, not an assistant strikerThis is why he emphasizes that "

The Korea Expressway Corporation will play against IBK Industrial Bank of Korea in the fifth round of the V League in the 2024-2025 season at Hwaseong Gymnasium on the 20th.

Coach Kim Jong-min said of the last loss at the Jeonggwan Jangjeon, `We need an ace in the end to make our team stronger. There should be a player with a responsibility to win" and pointed out Kang So-hwi.

"I think this season was a time for the setter to be a rookie, and to adapt to the team. However, the lack of hindsight, which is our weakness, is the role that So-hwi should play in the end. He didn't do it when he was in GS Caltex, so it must be hard for him. However, the ace, not the assistant striker, is So-hwi's role. "It's a pity that you can see well in the beginning, but you can't see it when it's decisive."

Manager Kim Jong-min said, "(The starting lineup will continue until the end of this season. There are no more players to go in anyway. The most important thing is to work with Kim Daeun and the other members "There is no grade or other motivation, but the professional has to win. I'm going to do my best until the end. I tried to change the atmosphere of the team."
