Moon Sung-min (39), who decided to retire, will be with Hyundai Capital Skywalkers next season. I start my second volleyball life as a coach.

Hyundai Capital recruited Moon Sung-min, who was the team's franchise star, as a coach on the 28th" he said.

Moon Sung-min gained experience on the European stage by playing for Friedrichshafen in the German Bundesliga and Halkbank in Turkiye. Since then, he has played an active role as a Hyundai Capital player from the 2010-2011 season to the 2024-2025 season.




Moon Sung-min made a decisive contribution to Hyundai Capital's lifting of a number of winning cups with strong attack and leadership. In particular, he has established himself as a representative player in South Korea's men's professional volleyball, being selected as the MVP of the regular league in the 2015-2016 season and the 2016-2017 season MVP of the championship.

Moon Sung-min, who has been playing for a long time in a team and silently leading his juniors as a captain and fellow player, finished his career with a big round of applause from many fans and colleagues after the last home game of the regular league in March last month.

Even at the moment of deciding to retire, he showed a lot of consideration for the club and its juniors, thinking about the team that is advancing to the championship game first. Hyundai Capital succeeded in advancing to the championship game by confirming the top spot in the regular league, but was not included in the entry for juniors. Instead, he attended training and played a role as a coach, hitting the ball. Heo Soo-bong plays the role of a coach, hitting the players with a ball and training together"Before entering the game "Let's go win today because we lost a lot in the past." Thanks to this, the players gained a lot of strength" he said.




Hyundai Capital coach Philip Blanc also said, `Moon Sung-min is an experienced player who can do well in the championship game. However, he did not enter the roster because his physical condition was unable to play. He is cheering and talking while being close to the player. It doesn't come on the court, but I think it's another player on the roster"I also thanked him.

Hyundai Capital won the championship game and achieved the team's first treble (a cup competition, regular league, and championship game).
