SY, which beat Harim 4:1 on the opening day, won two consecutive games and took the lead with six points. It beat second-place NHpay (2 wins, 5 points) by one point.
SY, which was at the bottom of the last season, recruited Lee Woo-kyung, Nguyen Hoang Yanni (Vietnam), and Seo Hyun-min ahead of this season, but sent Daniel Sanchez (Spain) to Welcome Savings Bank and made a trade to recruit Choi Won-jun. By sending Sanchez, the main player, SY was evaluated as the lowest again this season.
However, as the season opened, SY overturned expectations and raced back-to-back wins. In the first set (men's doubles), Hana Card Murat Najee Choclu (Turkiye) and Shin Jung-joo, who achieved the perfect Q for the second inning, gave up victory, but in the second set women's doubles, Nguyen Hoang Yanni (Vietnam) and Han Ji-eun also achieved the perfect Q, defeating Kim Ga-young and Ayako Sakai (Japan) 9-1 (7 innings).
In the men's singles in the third set, Choi Won-joon began to lead by overpowering the chopper with a score of 15 to 3, and SY won four sets (mixed doubles) and five sets (men's singles) in a row, eventually securing a 4-1 victory in the set score.
Meanwhile, NHpay (former NH Nonghyup Card) also won two consecutive games. NH Nonghyup Card, which faced Crown Haitai, had a tight match with a set score of 2-2 until the fourth set, and in the men's singles of the fifth set, Mamin Gum (Vietnam) defeated Kim Jae-geun 11-10 in eight innings after a close match.
