It's a record that's hard to break for a while. OK Savings Bank manager Shin Young-chul achieved 300 personal wins for the first time in the V League.
OK Savings Bank recorded 4 wins and 6 losses in the season with a complete victory of 3-0 in the Jin Air 2025-2026 V-League home game against Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance at Gangseo Gymnasium in Busan on the 27th. It is a meaningful day for OK Savings Bank, which ranked fifth with 13 points after losing two consecutive games.
Shin Young-chul became the first coach to win 300 games.
Shin, who had 296 wins and 227 losses in 523 games in the V-League starting with LG Fire & Marine Insurance, KEPCO, and Woori Card in the 2005 season, has already had the most games in the V-League, the most wins, and the most losses, but he was able to challenge 300 wins by taking the helm of OK Savings Bank this season and reached 300 wins in 10 games.
He recorded 300 wins and 233 losses in 533 games, and the winning rate is 56.3%. Coach Shin's record will not be easy to break for the time being, as Kim Jong-min, the second-ranked coach of the Korea Expressway Corporation, has 206 wins.
Coach Shin, who came into the interview room after receiving congratulatory water baptism from the players, honored OK Savings Bank and the players who gave him the fifth opportunity. Manager Shin said, `Thank you Choi Yoon for choosing meIt is a victory made with the help of our players, coaching staff, and club fronts. I'll be thankful and prepare for the next game."

"There were a lot of losses because I played the lower team, and it wasn't easy to post, but the record was set." "I've been holding out for a long time," he said. "Each club looked at me pretty, and it's thanks to our players."
What is the secret of becoming a coach who has been receiving and directing offers from various teams for so long. Shin expressed his initial intention. "I studied without losing my initial focus. I thought about and studied the problems of this team and the improvement of the players' skills. I tried to develop by grasping the strengths and weaknesses of each player, and I also studied tactics according to the times. We've been constantly preparing and we need to continue to do it"
Coach Shin then said, `In order to improve the skills of the players, we must first pull out the players' heads and raise them step by step"When a player doesn't want to do it, he puts up with it and waits about three times. A player who works hard in general makes progress. I feel joy in it. It's better to see the player develop rather than win."
"Why does that player become like that? Find the cause and have a conversation. Identify the psychological part and do technical things after that. At this time, rhythm and angle are important. Because you have to control the ball. Explain, take a video, and show it to the player himself. In the end, it is the players who do it at the end," he said, explaining his guiding philosophy.
When asked to pick the most memorable victory out of the 300 wins, coach Shin said "Since I won 300, I think I will remember today."Chairman Choi Yoon chose it and I was able to do it thanks to the players"
