“Let’s not think about the next, let’s go all-in now” message from director Kim Jong-min
“I tell the players a lot, ‘Let’s not think about what’s next when playing against the top two teams, so let’s go all-in here.’”
Korea Expressway Corporation, led by coach Kim Jong-min, will have a match against Heungkuk Life Insurance in the 3rd round of the Dodram 2022-23 V-League Women’s Division at Incheon Samsan World Gymnasium on the 13th.
The Korea Expressway Corporation is currently in 3rd place with 21 points (7 wins, 5 losses). In order to break away from the pursuit of IBK Industrial Bank (18 points, 6 wins and losses), which has been closely chasing, it needs a victory on this day. With no victory against Heungkuk Life Insurance this season yet, can he get his first win of the season?
Manager Kim Jong-min, whom we met before the game, said, “There are always many things we want, but we can go to a higher place only when we beat a top-tier team. I also say to the players a lot, ‘Let’s not think about what’s next when playing against the top two teams, so let’s go all-in here.’”
Director Kim continued, “I haven’t come up to the part I thought of yet, but the grades are good. If we see our team as average, the other team is considered to be down. But you never know when another team will come up. In particular, IBK Industrial Bank’s performance is good. When we play against a top-tier team, I think we can operate comfortably only when we bring 3 points.” 안전놀이터
Highway Corporation played a full set game in a row against Hyundai E&C on the 4th and KGC Ginseng Corporation on the 9th. He has to take another three days off and play the second place Heungkuk Life Insurance right away. It’s not an easy schedule. As a road construction company with many veteran players, it is necessary to arrange physical strength.
Manager Kim Jong-min said, “The players may be a little out of shape, but it is not serious. It is true that it takes time for the players on our team to improve their stamina because they are older.”
Lastly, director Kim Jong-min said, “I am considering a spot as an outside heater. I think I will have to think about it until I enter the game,” he explained.
