He did not simply return as Kim Yeon-kyung’s friend. She’s back to winning. This is the story of Kim Soo-ji, who returned to her parents Heungkuk Life Insurance six years after 2017.

Incheon Heungkuk Life Pink Spiders announced on the 19th that they had signed a three-year contract  with middle blocker Kim Su-ji for a total compensation of 310 million won (270 million won in annual salary, 40 million won in options ). It was Heungkuk Life Insurance’s second big signing after Kim Yeon-kyung.

In particular, Kim Su-ji’s contract was not simply made because he was a friend of Kim Yeon-kyung, but it is a more meaningful FA contract because it was a player necessary to fulfill the vision of winning that coach Marcello Abondanza talked about when persuading Kim Yeon-kyung.

Last season, Heungkuk Life Insurance had to give the Expressway Corporation the championship match. In particular, the side attack line leading to Kim Yeon-kyung and Yelena did not lag behind the road construction, but Bae Yu-na and Jung Dae-young had to drink the bitter cup of defeat by revealing their inferiority in the middle blocker that they were holding on to. 먹튀검증

Heungkuk Life Insurance, which is aiming to win unconditionally in the upcoming season, needed a way to persuade Kim Yeon-kyung, who received love calls from almost all teams, and the solution was to strengthen the middle blocker by recruiting Kim Su-ji. Kim Yeon-kyung was convinced by Abondanza’s presentation of the vision, and following Kim Yeon-kyung’s retention, Kim Su-ji’s recruitment was successful, and both the sides and center were able to build the best power.

For Kim Soo-ji, returning to her former team is more meaningful. In particular, it is more meaningful to be with his best friend, Kim Yeon-kyung. Suji Kim worked for Heungkuk for three years from 2014 to 2017.He played an active part in life and lifted the trophy for first place in the regular league in the 2016-17 season. Kim Su-ji, who later transferred to Industrial Bank of Korea, confirmed his comeback by changing into a Heungkuk Life Insurance uniform after 6 seasons .

Kim Su-ji said, “I am happy to play again for my parent team, Heungkuk Life Insurance. I am grateful to the club for reaching out to him and I will do my best to contribute to the unified championship next season.” 

Heungkuk Life Insurance is also showing great expectations for Kim Soo-ji. An official from Heungkuk Life Insurance said in an interview, “Because he is a veteran player with excellent blocking and mobile attack skills, he will be a good example for young players in the team as well as reinforcing his height . “

The foundation for the vision that coach Abondanza talked about has been laid. Now, it will be up to coach Abondanza and the players to build a building called championship on this foundation. Indeed, Heungkuk Life Insurance will be responsible for winning the championship in the upcoming season. It remains to be seen if it will be able to resolve the resentment.
