'A gentle gentleman' Director Kang Sung-hyung roared with clenched fists. On the other hand, Heungkuk Life Lee Da-hyun, who had his first match with his former team, could not laugh in front of his fans.
Hyundai Engineering & Construction won the first match of the season with a set score of 3-1 (25-20, 25-12, 19-25, 25-23) in the first round showdown against Heungkuk Life at Samsan World Gymnasium in Incheon on the 22nd.
Lee Da-hyun, who joined Hyundai Engineering & Construction in 2019 and spent six seasons, became a free agent (FA) this year and changed to Heungkuk Life Insurance's uniform. The two teams have met at the Cup, but this is the first time they have faced off in the regular league.

On the other hand, Heungkuk Life Insurance failed to show as much power as the opening game (28 points), with foreign player Rebecca scoring only 17 points, and the pitch's gap, which was absent due to a knee injury, was also large. Korean players such as Kim Dae-eun (7 points), Park Min-ji (6 points), and Jung Yoon-joo (6 points) worked hard, but it was not enough to reach the height of Hyundai Engineering & Construction.
