Kim Hee-jin participated in the 2025 Korean Business Volleyball & Professional Volleyball Futures Champions Tournament held at Donggwan in Danyang-gun Gymnasium on the 2nd.
The first real game since the transfer. Although he was not in 100% physical condition yet, the playing time was not long, Kim Hee-jin announced that his physical condition was coming up smoothly, with two blocking points and six points, including one serve.
Ahead of this season, Kim Hee-jin met the turning point of her volleyball career. Kim Hee-jin, who was nominated to the Industrial Bank of Korea as a new team priority in 2011, played only in one team without a transfer until last season.
He has been at the center of Industrial Bank of Korea's three wins (2012-2013, 2014-2015, 2016-2017 season) and has continued to play a prominent role as a national team player.
The image of an Industrial Bank of Korea was stronger than anyone else, but it made a fresh start. Over the past two seasons, he has spent a lot of time on the bench due to injuries, and eventually after this season, retirement talks came out. Kim Hee-jin, who had a strong will to extend his active career, eventually left the Industrial Bank of Korea and started anew at Hyundai Engineering & Construction.
Hyundai Engineering & Construction needed an Industrial Bank of Korea. As Lee Da-hyun got an FA and moved to Heungkuk Life Insurance, there was a gap in the middle blocker. Immediately after recruiting Kim Hee-jin, Hyundai Engineering & Construction coach Kang Sung-hyung said "There are not many middle blockers on our team. (Yang) Hyo-jin and Kang Seo-woo, and Seo-woo has been professional for only a year. I was worried, but Kim Hee-jin is not in his prime, but he has his own determination. If he builds up his body systematically, I think he will be skilled"I looked at it.

Kim Hee-jin continued "It was fun, and I felt what I needed to supplement. I think we need to increase our attack power as much as possible"I tried to make sure the opponent could check it as much as possible. I know it's not going to come up to me, but I was going to run 100%."
It's a season where we prepare with everything. Kim Hee-jin filled his heart with 'confident' rather than 'fear'. Kim Hee-jin "I think it's more convincing than vague. I think I can do well during the regular season"There are many people who help, and there are many who wish well. In the meantime, many people want me to do well if I have been looking at myself with anxiety and pity. I think it will be a season full of confidence if we work hard," he stressed.
At the time of the transfer, Kim Hee-jin ordered head coach Kang Sung-hyung "Please talk strongly if you lose your will even a little bit." Kim Hee-jin "I don't think the director has anything to say. I'm working really hard. If there is pain, I control it, but I am holding back and pushing for minor pain. I think the director would know it, he said confidently.
On this day, many media and fans visited Danyang to see Kim Hee-jin's first real game. Kim Hee-jin, who has been steadily attracting attention since his transfer, said "It's a bit burdensome, but after doing these interviews, I think I should do better"I hope the team gets attention other than me. It's also helpful because the fans are cheering for us" he said.
