'World Star' Kim Yeon-kyung, who leads the women's professional volleyball box office, showed deep disappointment towards her team, Heungkuk Life Insurance Club.
At the end of this season, the possibility of Kim Yeon-kyung, who will qualify as a free agent (FA), remaining at Heungkuk Life Insurance has become very slim.
Here, fans also criticized the club and the group's incomprehensible decision through her truck protest.
Prior to the Incheon GS Caltex game yesterday (5th), the first game after former manager Kwon Soon-chan's dismissal, Shin Yong-joon, the new head of Heungkuk Life Insurance, said, "The former head coach and manager did not feel conflict over 'appointment of players', but there was a problem with 'team operation'. I know there was," and explained, "It's not a matter of player appointment," but the agitation continued.
Unfortunately, head coach Lee Young-soo, who was appointed by the club as acting manager, also resigned as soon as the GS Caltex game was over.

Kim Yeon-kyung also criticized the club's decision.
Kim Yeon-kyung said, "It is true that there was talk about the appointment of players. (The club side) did as they wanted and then lost several times."
"I don't understand it any more if I dismissed former manager Kwon Soon-chan for the reason Shin revealed it," he said. I don't know, but I personally don't understand it. If that's the case, all coaches will be fired," he said.
It is very unusual for a player to actively comment on what happened between the club and the manager.
To that extent, Heungkuk Life Insurance players such as Kim Yeon-kyung are protesting against the club’s decision.
Kim Yeon-kyung said, “Isn’t it different from saying that the company prefers a manager who listens well? As one of the people, it's a pity," he continued criticizing.
The fan spirit was also boiling.
Some fans rallied at their own expense and started a truck protest.
Fans who introduced themselves as the 'Women's Volleyball Happiness Group' said, "Heungkuk Life Insurance Club and the parent company Taekwang Group exercised their authority, such as ordering players by text message, and fired the manager for unclear reasons during the season." While watching the process of revealing the background of hard and hard, many women's volleyball fans and Heungkuk Life Insurance fans felt great anger at the behavior of Taekwang Group, the parent company. Fans who agreed to this decided to speak out through truck protests." .
