Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance lost set score 0-3 (20-25, 23-25, 20-25) at home in the fifth round of the Dodram 2024  ̄ 2025 V-League at Chungmu Gymnasium in Daejeon on the 23rd.
Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, which recorded 10 wins and 20 losses due to the loss, maintained 34 points, while KB Insurance, the third-place winner, scored 56 points with 20 wins and 10 losses. After the fifth round, the difference between the two teams is 22 points. In order for the semi-playoff between the third and fourth places to take place, the points must be within three points. However, even if Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance wins the remaining six rounds and third-place KB Insurance loses all games, the difference between the two teams is four points, and Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance has been confirmed to be eliminated from volleyball in the spring.
As a result, Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance tried to play spring volleyball for the first time in seven years after advancing to the playoffs as the second place in the regular season of the 2017-2018 season, but failed again, promising next season.
The possibility of Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance's spring volleyball was slim because Hyundai Capital, which has already confirmed the top spot in the regular league, second-ranked Korean Air, and third-ranked KB Insurance's third-ranked team were so strong that the possibility of a third-place KB Insurance's spring volleyball was slim, but hope was cut off on the day.
KB Insurance's victory on the day narrowed the gap with Korean Air to one point, raising hopes for second place.
Blocking changed the atmosphere in a close game at the beginning of the first set. At the 10-10 tie, Cha Young-seok blocked Kim Joon-woo's fastball and Pazley's attack in a row, starting to tilt to KB Insurance. Then, with Villena's back attack and Hwang Taek's serve ace, KB Insurance, which gradually increased the gap, took the first set 25-20 by blocking Villena's attack.
The second set was also a close game, but KB Insurance laughed at the end. At 20-20, Paisley's back attack was out on Cha Young-seok's fastball, leading by two points, and finally maintained the difference. Finished with Villena's spike at 24-23.

For KB Insurance, Villena scored 17 points, Hwang Kyung-min scored 13 points, and Jakub scored 12 points, showing a stable triangle formation.
For Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance, Fasley scored 21 points, the most in both teams, and Kim Jung-ho scored 10, but there was a limit to the attack that relied only on the two.
Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance is a renowned volleyball player who has won seven regular-season titles and nine championship games. In particular, he set a huge record of winning for eight consecutive seasons from the 2006-2007 season to the 2013-2014 season. But there has never been a win since then. In the meantime, Hyundai Capital, Korean Air and OK Savings Bank shared the championship. The postseason is also the last of the 2017-2018 season, and it has recently fallen to the middle or lower-ranking teams. Next season, we need to ignite the reconstruction of the famous family.
