"It's been so long since I've had an interview, so I can't even remember (how long it's been)."

Ko Ye-rim (30), a female volleyball Hyundai Engineering & Construction outside heater who entered the interview room after the Heungkuk Life Insurance match held at Suwon Gymnasium on the 20th, could not recall when the last interview was.

This season, Ko Ye-rim was on the bench all the time, but started for the first time through the 16th game of the season, the match against Heungkuk Life, showing off her presence and taking the lead in defeating Heungkuk Life.

Hyundai Engineering & Construction, which lost both the first and second rounds against Heungkuk Life Insurance, won the third round match with a set score of 3-0, and Ko Ye-rim scored 13 points, the most in the team.

Not only offense, but also blocking and receiving serve were impeccable performances.

Having a chance to start the tournament due to the waist injury of Jung Ji-yoon, the main outside heater, Ko said, "It's been a long time since we had fun playing volleyball. My strengths came out well."

Hyundai Engineering & Construction scored as many as 11 points in a row in the first set 14-12, completely taking the lead.

At this time, Ko Ye-rim is in charge of serving for 10 consecutive times.
"I haven't counted, but I don't think I've had that experience (in 10 consecutive serves)," Ko said. "My opponent has good reception, but my serve worked. I just wanted to score because it's an important score, but I kept getting more points." 스포츠토토

Ko Ye-rim, who played around 30 games every season, played only 15 games in the 2023-2024 season in the aftermath of surgery on both knees.

He played in 15 of the 16 games his team played this season, but his chances of starting were reduced.

"I fully rehabilitated after surgery, so I have no problem with my body. However, I don't think I found the rhythm because I played many games," he said. "I'm a striker, so I have to hit and hit. Even on days when I had good rhythm, I used to break the rhythm because I only received."

Regarding the Heungkuk Life Insurance match, which he hit without wanting, he said, "It was fun because I hit a lot."

At the end of this season, Ko Ye-rim will qualify as a free agent.

Although she had fewer chances to play in an important season, Ko said, "I let go of my greed now. Considering that, I can't even fit the rhythm. You can show it when you have a chance."

Hyundai Engineering & Construction, ranked second in the league, trailed Heungkuk Life (14 wins, 2 losses, 40 points) by three points with 12 wins, 4 losses and 37 points.

Ko said, "There has been no change in membership between last season and this season when we won the championship," adding, "Though the country is strong, I think we should do what we want. Of course, my goal is to win the championship."

Ko Ye-rim, born in 1994, is over 30.

He said he doesn't care much about the change in the first digit, but he explained that small changes are felt.

Ko Ye-rim said, "I don't know (my physical strength)," but added, "If it used to be a jump just by tying a shoe strap, now it takes time to warm up."
