"Bae Yuna can afford to come back after preparing more perfectly and without any pressure."

The power of the first place is shining day after day.

In the 2025-2026 season with new sponsor Jin Air, the Korea Expressway Corporation is leading the way with seven consecutive wins.




Kim Jong-min, the coach of the Korea Expressway Corporation, said at Hwaseong Gymnasium on the 19th, `I don't talk about winning games to the players. I just check my condition and my performance in training right now," he said, expressing his coolness.

"The defensive organization is not perfect yet. In some cases, the lines of movement overlap. It is important to receive and connect volleyball. I'm practicing a lot."

The beginning of the season, which could have been a crisis due to Bae Yu-na's injury departure, became an opportunity for Lee Ji-yoon, the No. 1 rookie, to play a great role. Coach Kim Jong-min said, `Bae Yu-na was re-examined today, and the result is good. "I'm thinking about returning for about a month from now on. "Lee Ji-yoon is a young player, so there will probably be a period of shaking. Perhaps it will match Yuna's return.




There is no shaking like a rookie at all. Manager Kim Jong-min said, `I trained for a day and went in, and I have the most room on the court. The basics are good, and the judgment is fast and good. The second-stage connection is the best in the team," he said, pouring out a storm of praise.

However, "I'm a little disappointed in blocking, but I'm going to prepare more for this part after Yuna returns."

Instead of Kim Dae-eun, who has been suffering from sluggishness this season compared to her debut season impact, Lee Yoon-jung is playing as the main setter. Director Kim Jong-min said, `Kim Dae-eun is training the most these days. He expressed his expectation, saying, "If I have a chance, I will find my place."




The most consecutive wins by the Korea Expressway Corporation are 10 consecutive wins in the 2021-2022 season.

"Lee Yoon-jung, Kelsea, Bae Yu-na, Jeong Dae-young, Park Jung-ah on the left, and Lim Myeong-ok, Moon Jung-won on the defense…The power is better then. We are not perfect yet."

Moon Jung-won is in his debut season as a libero. Manager Kim Jong-min said, `If we find more room, we have more room to show better performances. Even now, I'm looking for some more time," he said with a smile.
