"We want to create more diverse options. We are a team that is still growing."

You can't be full on the first drink. Although he won his debut match, the new head coach of Heungkuk Life Insurance Yoshihara Tomoko was not satisfied.

Heungkuk Life Insurance won the set score 3-1 in the opening match of the V-League season of Jin Air 2025-2026 at Samsan World Gymnasium in Incheon on the 18th.




On the day of volleyball emperor Kim Yeon-kyung's retirement ceremony and permanent absence ceremony, the players' determination that there would be no defeat was outstanding. Rebecca Lasem, who scored 28 points in a completely different atmosphere from the previous V-League stage, was also impressive.

Coach Yoshihara's shrewd posture did not collapse despite his debut victory. He is asking Rebekah for more than he did in training. We need to grow more, and we need to know how to hit better."

As for Seo Chae-hyun, who made his debut as the main setter, "I didn't worry too much because he showed me during practice." He demanded that the toss not be lowered, and he showed his stability" he complimented.

Regarding the background of creating a sub-ace by using Kim Da-sol as a one-point server instead of Rebecca, "It's very difficult to timing a double change, but the players did a good job." The question of adding one more attack, supplementing the height of the avant, and utilizing the setter, Rebecca's sub??It wasn't a door."

Libero also showed a good performance with Park Soo-yeon. Yoshihara said, `It was supported by veterans such as Kim Da-sol. We need to create more options"When you're having a hard time, you have to prepare together." No matter who comes out, we have no choice but to prepare so that we can play properly."

Regarding Choi Eun-ji, who showed a breakthrough as a veteran, "He is a striker, but he is a player with strengths in connection and defense. I hope you will sharpen your skills enough to go all the way to Libero in the future."




"Hungkuk Life is still a growing team. "Receiving, you have to be more accurate regardless of defending."
