Excluding the 3rd set with a 2-point gap, Ginseng Corporation, which overcame IBK relatively comfortably in 1 hour and 20 minutes, rose to fourth place alone, ahead of GS Caltex KIXX by 2 points (12 wins, 15 losses). .
Ginseng Corp.’s foreign player Elisabeth Ine Varga, who is running first in scoring (753 points), led the attack by scoring 25 points, including 4 sub points and 2 blocks, and middle blocker Jeong Ho-young also scored 13 points, including 7 blocks. He did a great job scoring. And on this day, Ginseng Corporation had a player who greatly relieved the burden of Elisabeth in offense and Lee So-young and Norin Libero in defense. The main character is Park Hye-min, an outside hitter who performed well in a game in which he started for the first time in a long time.
The claim that led to the golden age of Sunseon Girls’ High School
Sunseon Women’s High School, located in Jinju, Gyeongnam, founded the volleyball team in 1987, but it was in the late 2000s that it began to stand out on the national stage in earnest. Sunseon Girls’ High School: Choi Eun-ji and Yoo Seo-yeon (GS Caltex), Ha Hye-jin and Jim Min-kyung (Pepper Savings Bank AI Peppers), Byun Ji-su, Lee Won-jeong and Park Hye-jin (Heungkuk Life Insurance Pink Spiders), Shin Yeon-kyung (IBK Bank), and Kim Sae-in (Korea) Expressway Corporation High Pass) has been steadily producing professional players every year.
However, Sunseon Girls’ High School’s heyday was 2018, when it won four national championships, including the National Sports Festival, the National Championships, the Spring League Championships, and the Taebaek Mountain Cup. At the time, Sunseon Girls’ High School had Park Eun-jin, who was considered the best middle blocker in girls’ high school volleyball, in the center, Jeong Ho-yeong, who was called “Little Kim Yeon-kyung,” on the left, and Lee Ye-sol, a left-handed striker with a good serve, on the right (unfortunately, all of them were ginseng in the 2018 and 2019 rookie drafts). was nominated by the corporation).
However, neither Park Eun-jin nor Lee Ye-sol were the captains leading Sunseon Girls’ High School at the time. Park Hye-min, an outside hitter who played the role of a housekeeper in the team, took over as captain of Sunseon Girls’ High School in 2018 and led the team to four national championships. Park Hye-min, who lacks power as an outside hitter, but has good defense and basic skills, captained the Korean national team at the Asian Women’s Youth Volleyball Championships in 2018, and was selected for the AVC Cup national team composed of second-tier players in September of that year.
In the 2018 rookie draft, Park Hye-min was nominated by GS Caltex as the third overall pick, beating the main strikers from each school, such as Gyeongnam Girls’ High School’s Jeong Ji-yoon, Daejeon Yongsan High’s Na Hyeon-soo (above Hyundai Engineering & Construction Hillstate), and Wongok High School’s Mun Ji-yoon (GS Caltex). However, at GS Caltex, there were So-Young Lee (Ginseng Corporation) and So-Hwi Kang (GS Caltex), who were famous as young twins representing the V-League. In the end, Park Hye-min only scored 116 points in 50 games in three seasons after her professional debut.
After the 2020-2021 season, Park Hye-min, who did not get enough opportunities compared to the talent she had, came to an unexpected change. Senior Lee So-young, who followed her like her own sister at GS Caltex, obtained FA qualification and transferred to Ginseng Corporation. And on April 28, 2021, director Cha Sang-hyun, who wanted an experienced outside heater, coveted Choi Eun-ji of Ginseng Corporation, and Park Hye-min followed her close senior Lee So-young through a 1:1 trade with Choi Eun-ji to wear the Ginseng Corporation uniform.
A housekeeper who combines offense, defense, and height
In fact, Ginseng Corporation is a team with many young outside heater resources such as Go Eui-jeong, Go Min-ji, Lee Ye-sol, and Lee Seon-woo, in addition to Park Hye-min. Compared to the days of GS Caltex, when Lee So-young and Kang So-hui, the ‘four walls’ starters, were enduring, the probability of being able to play an active role as a starter has increased somewhat, but the competition rate for the starter has actually increased. However, Park Hye-min took part in 28 games in the first season of Ginseng Corporation transfer and scored 205 points, making a leap forward as a practical main player. 카지노
Park Hye-min, who was also selected for the Volleyball Nations League (VNL) national team after the season, was selected as Lee So-young’s partner this season as coach Koh Hee-jin took over. However, as the serve and defense, which were still considered strengths due to their unfortunate power, began to show ups and downs, they gave up the starting position to Seon-ah Chae from the 3rd round. As he gained experience and was selected for the national team, he lost his place to a senior who also serves as a libero in an important season when he had to solidify his position as a starting player.
Chae Seon-ah in defense, Lee Seon-woo in offense, and Go Eui-jeong and Lee Ye-sol in serve, Park Hye-min’s chances to play gradually decreased as the rounds went by. In addition, Park Hye-min spent more time in the warm-up zone as Han Song-i, who had transformed into a middle blocker before and after the All-Star break, was replaced as an outside heater. Park Hye-min, who had been solidifying her position as a backup member, started for the Industrial Bank of Korea on the 8th instead of Chae Sun-ah after a long time.
And Park Hye-min performed like Altoran in the offense and defense, scoring 10 points in attack, including 2 blockings, and recording 8 digs and 55% receiving efficiency in the match against IBK, where he started for the first time in a long time. In particular, it recorded 21.70% attack share, which is the second highest in the team, relieving Elisabeth’s offensive burden, and receiving IBK’s target serve with a 55% probability, sharing the yellow libero and Lee So-young’s defensive burden.
From the beginning of the season, coach Koh Hee-jin and Ginseng Corporation fans expected Park Hye-min to play against the Industrial Bank of Korea. In fact, if he continues to play as well as he did in the Industrial Bank of Korea competition, Park Hye-min, a ‘housekeeper’ with a good height of 181 cm, will hardly be threatened by the main manager at Ginseng Corporation. Park Hye-min, who overcame wandering (?) in the middle of the season and regained her good condition, can contribute to Ginseng Corporation’s spring volleyball challenge in the second half of the season.
