(Seoul = News 1) Reporter Ahn Young-joon = The regular season of women’s professional volleyball has ended. Only the playoffs and the championship match remained. Now, it is important who is more focused in a short period of time. This is why interest is focused on the activities of Kim Yeon-kyung (Heungkuk Life Insurance), a’veteran’ and’winner’.

With the confrontation between KGC Ginseng Corporation and GS Caltex held at the Chungmu Gymnasium in Daejeon on the 16th, the regular season of the 2020-21 Dodram V League Women’s Division has ended. 2nd place Heungkuk Life Insurance (19 wins 11 losses, 56 wins), 3rd place IBK Industrial Bank (14 wins 16 losses, 42 wins) playoffs and playoff winners-1st place GS Caltex (20 wins 10 wins, 58 wins) Only the championship match remains.

Kim Yeon-kyung, the best star in the league of self-confidence, sets out to’restore pride’ through the playoffs that will start on the 20th.

Even at the beginning of the season, Kim Yeon-kyung and Heungkuk Life had no worries. Kim Yeon-kyung overwhelmed the league by being selected as the first round MVP, and Heungkuk Life Insurance also took the lead alone. Winning the regular season and going straight to the championship match were dominant.

However, from the 5th round, the situation changed rapidly. The disagreement within the team circulated, and Lee Jae-young and Lee Da-young left the team while being caught in the ‘abusive incident.’ Also, during the season, foreign players were replaced and the new Bruna was unable to adapt.

Heungkuk Life Insurance continued to fall. In the last 10 matches, including a face-to-face defeat with GS Caltex, he was sluggish with 2 wins and 8 losses (7 victory points), and eventually gave the first place to GS Caltex. Some made pessimistic predictions that Heungkuk Life Insurance and Kim Yeon-kyung would be difficult to stop the downtrend.

Nevertheless, Heungkuk Life Insurance deserves anticipation as much as Kim Yeon-kyung is alive.

This is also evidenced by records. In this season’s regular league, Kim Yeon-kyung was ranked 1st in attack success rate (45.92%), 1st in sub (0.277 per set), and 1st in open attack (44.48% success rate).

With a 38.81% success rate in the back-end attack, it ranked first among domestic players (6th in total). In a situation where the team collapsed, he struggled not only by attacking his main business, but also showing blocking, receiving, and’Digg of Fighting Spirit’.

Not only. Heungkuk is at the center of life with a leadership that encourages and encourages colleagues whenever the flow is taken away. As proved in Seungri (3-1) before the road construction on the 9th, if Kim Yeon-kyung is strong and his fellow players support him well, the rebound of Heungkuk Life, which is collapsing, is not impossible.

Also, Kim Yeon-kyung is a veteran. He held numerous international competitions, including the Olympics, and often experienced moments of high pressure while playing for a long time on the overseas stage. Considering the specificity of the postseason, where the pressure is high, Kim Yeon-kyung’s experience may shine even more.

Meanwhile, with the end of the regular league, the final team ranking and the first place in each division’s personal record were also set.

Heungkuk Life Insurance ranked second and IBK Industrial Bank ranked third. Korea Expressway Corporation (13 wins 17 losses, 41 wins points) in fourth place failed to advance to the playoffs due to a slight difference. KGC Ginseng Corporation (13 wins 17 losses, 39 wins points) in 5th place, and Hyundai E&C (11 wins 19 losses, 34 wins points) in 6th place, respectively.

Korea Expressway Corporation’s Myung-ok Myung-ok was ranked 1st in defense (8.85 per set), 1st in receive (52.63% efficiency), and 1st in Digg (5.69 per set). I missed it, but it took the 1st place in time difference (success rate 58.9%) and the 1st place in quick success rate (84.55% success rate).

IBK Industrial Bank’s Lazarevah (success rate 45.07%) ranked first in the back-end attack, and KGC Ginseng Corporation’s Han Song-yi (success rate 55.88%) recorded the highest success rate. The Quick Open was occupied by GS Caltex’s Lutz (51.45%).
