Jin Sung-tae, who joined the OK Eutman Volleyball Team through a trade with Korean Air in 2024, is a product of youth volleyball in Gwangju, which went through Munjeong Elementary School, Moonheung Middle School, and Gwangju Electronics Technical High School. Gwangju City Sports Council President Jeon Gap-soo also attended to encourage the players as the hometown of another sports group sponsored by OK Financial Group, OK Eutman Rugby Team, was also in Gwangju City.
Jin Sung-tae, who visited the Jinju Dongmyeong High School Gymnasium, where the volleyball team of Munjeong Elementary School in Gwangju will play on the 24th, not only delivered the supplies but also cheered enthusiastically by watching the younger players' games. In addition, talent donations such as stretching and taping to prevent injuries were also made for youth players.
Jin Seong-tae said, "When I heard that my alma mater's juniors were developing their dreams even in poor conditions, I thought about how to be motivated."I made this donation because I felt the need for support was more urgent because I knew that the environment in which players could continue to exercise was directly linked to developing their dreams."
In addition, as a senior, I want to find and implement various ways to have a positive impact on my juniors"I hope that a virtuous cycle structure will be established within the volleyball world."
