"I'm away because of training...."

Lim Myeong-ok (39, IBK Industrial Bank of Korea) recently shed tears after completing training.

He joined KT&G in 2005, the first year of his professional career, and then joined the Korea Expressway Corporation in a trade in 2015. In the construction of the Korea Expressway Corporation, Lim once again had his best days. He led the club's first unified championship (2017-2018) and became the league's best libero for six consecutive years from 2019-2020.




Lim Myung-ok, who received so much love that he was nicknamed "Choi-ri (Best Rivero)", will move his team once again after the end of last season. He will wear the IBK Industrial Bank uniform as a cash trade. The Korea Expressway Corporation was notified that it was difficult to sign a contract, and the transfer was made when the Industrial Bank of Korea reached out to him, who had a strong will to extend his contract.

Lim Myeong-ok, who had a house in Gimcheon, became a weekend couple when he left the Korea Expressway Corporation. At the same time, I realized even more that I left Gimcheon on a dog that I had to watch with 'HomeCam' on weekdays. Lim Myeong-ok "I have a dog, but now I'm away because of my training. I was watching it on the home cam, and I saw you looking out from your favorite spot on the couch. "I want to see you every day, but I've moved the team, so I can only see you once a week" and "When I see my dog, I get emotional again because I can't move my house right away."

Lim Myeong-ok said, `I had more bitter feelings, but now that I'm new, I'm going to think of it as a new start. In fact, I thought I might need a change, but the picture wasn't good, but I moved the team, and my mindset changed. I'm thinking about not losing my mind when I first moved"I've clenched my teeth a little more, and now I feel like I have to be stronger and do well."

Kim Ho-chul, director of IBK Industrial Bank, welcomed the recruitment of Lim Myeong-ok. His skills are good, but he highly appreciated his attitude as a professional. "Thanks to (Im) Myung-ok's initiative, many young players are watching and learning," Kim said with a smile.

Regarding his physical condition, Lim Myung-ok said, `It's just the pain I'm having as a player, but I don't have a big injury.' `Every coach has a different style, but coach Kim Ho-chul wants me to do ball exercises while making my body. I've been working out like that since I first came here."

Lim Myung-ok is still showing off his overwhelming skills, ranking first in receiving efficiency (50.57%), first in dig (5.113 per set) and first in defense (7.326 per set) last season. Industrial Bank of Korea, which has Lim Myung-ok, is now able to look beyond spring volleyball. Lim Myeong-ok said, `At first, I wanted to go to spring volleyball and I wanted to present spring volleyball to manager Kim Ho-chul who reached out to me"But Kinkela came in and started ball training from July 1, so I thought I could look a little higher. Victoria is a proven player and Kincella is good, so it would be nice to look higher It occurred to me. Our players are also working really hard."




An interview that expressed some regret and disappointment toward the road construction. Lim Myung-ok left a word at the end. "Even though the last one wasn't good, I was really happy to run while working on the road."
