The last dance of "Volleyball Empress" Kim Yeon-kyung (37, Heungkuk Life Insurance) is ending beautifully.
Kim Yeon-kyung's retirement tour of the away farewell match, which first began after the match against IBK Industrial Bank of Korea on the 16th, is in full swing.
On the 21st, 3,800 seats were sold out at Suwon Gymnasium, where Kim Yeon-kyung's second retirement tour event was held, and fans of the home team Hyundai Engineering & Construction also applauded the retirement of "Legend" who will leave the court after this season.
In particular, it remained an impressive scene to receive a uniform frame of No. 10 with Hyundai E&C players' autographs from Yang Hyo-jin, a two-year junior who has lived together for a long time on the women's national team.
Kim Yeon-kyung played only eight seasons in the V-League due to her overseas league activities, but Yang Hyo-jin (36) is another "living legend" who has played for 18 seasons and leads the career scoring category (7,901 points).
Kim Yeon-kyung and Yang Hyo-jin played as outside heaters and middle blockers for the national team during the 2012 London Olympics, when South Korean women's volleyball reached the semifinals.
Also, it was a special scene to be with Hwang Yeon-ju (39) of Hyundai Engineering & Construction who attended Kim Yeon-kyung's retirement event.
In 2005, the first year of professional volleyball, Hwang Yeon-ju, who wore Heungkuk Life's uniform as the No. 2 player in the first round of the rookie draft, played as a left-right double gun in the 2005-2006 season when Kim Yeon-kyung debuted, leading Heungkuk Life to an integrated victory.
Kim Yeon-kyung made memories by taking commemorative photos with Yang Hyo-jin and Hwang Yeon-ju after the last game at Suwon Gymnasium.
Kim Yeon-kyung's retirement tour for away games will be followed by the Jeonggwanjangjeon (Daejeon Chungmu Gymnasium) on March 1, the Pepper Savings Bank match (Gwangju Pepper Stadium) on March 11, and the GS Caltex match (Seoul Jangchung Gymnasium) on March 20.
Jeonggwanjang has setter Yeom Hye-sun, who worked with the national team, and Pepper Savings Bank has Apogit Spiker Park Jung-ah, who was a teammate of the national team.
In addition, Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul, where GS Caltex will play its last away farewell match, is a place where memories were made due to the All-Star Game. 바카라
However, since Kim Yeon-kyung announced her retirement on the 13th, she ended her career without playing an away farewell match with the Korea Expressway Corporation (Kimcheon Gymnasium), which played earlier.
