V-League Men's Team Korea reported its first win of the season.

KEPCO beat Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance 3-1 (20-25, 25-18, 25-14, 25-20) in the first round of the Jin Air 2025-2026 V League at Suwon Gymnasium on the 1st. KEPCO got off to a shaky start in the first set, but quickly settled the mood.

After the game, KEPCO coach Kwon Young-min said, `First of all, the players worked so hard. It's a shame that I should have won my first game of the season earlier. After the first set, Seo Jae-deok was put in, and the receiving stabilized and Seung-woo was revived. I think we played volleyball since then", he commented in general.




The reason for writing the "Eddie" is because of its aggression. If the offense is not as strong as today, Seo Jae-deok went in and stabilized it. Side-out volleyball alone has a chance of winning. If Eddie goes in when he needs it and distributes it with his offense, wouldn't the team be better?"

About Ha Seung-woo and Benon's teamwork "We still have to match more. Benon is seen faltering. Seung-woo is also trying to match it, so it's a little later than the original timing. It's gotten a lot better. If it gets a little better, wouldn't Benon be more comfortable?" he predicted.

Benon diagnosed that he is still in the process of adapting to Korean volleyball.

Coach Kwon Young-min said, `No other league thinks of high ball as a big attack. They put paint or consecutive hits, but in Korea, foreign players told me that it is a good team only when the high ball success rate is high. It is a step to adjust the style of volleyball little by little. Benon is working hard, too."

It's early in the season, so the condition of each game is important.

Coach Kwon Young-min said, `I think the ranking outline will come out only after the second round and the third round. I think the victory or defeat will be very different depending on the condition of the day. I overcame a difficult game today. I think he would have lost his mind for three consecutive losses. From the next game, we will make sure that we can win by showing our volleyball color well.'
