In the professional volleyball V-League All-Star Game, which returned to a full crowd after four years, the player who caught the most attention was by far the superstar Kim Yeon-kyung of Heungkuk Life Insurance.



Today (29th), Kim Yeon-kyung stepped on the court of the 'Star Stage' All-Star Game at Samsan World Gymnasium in Incheon for the first time in 14 years.



Kim Yeon-kyung, who was selected as an All-Star three times in a row as soon as she debuted in the 2005-2006 season, has been active in overseas leagues since 2009 and has not been able to appear in the All-Star Game for a while.



It won the most votes (82,115 votes) in the All-Star vote for the 2020-2021 season, which returned to the V-League after 11 years, but at the time, the All-Star Game was not held due to the aftermath of Corona 19.



And the following year, after working in China, Kim Yeon-kyung, who returned after a year, once again got the most votes (82,297 votes) this season and participated in the All-Star Game for the first time in 14 years.



As the stage was the home court of Heungkuk Life Insurance, it was crowded with fans who visited Kim Yeon-kyung even before the game started.



Fans wearing Kim Yeon-kyung uniforms or carrying pickets containing fan spirit also stood out.



When Kim Yeon-kyung made a surprise appearance at the 'instant photo' booth in the lobby, fans flocked to her in an instant.



At the 1st place award ceremony in the All-Star fan vote, Kim Yeon-kyung gave a witty impression, saying, "It's been 14 years since I realized that I'm getting older." .



In this game, the atmosphere reached its climax when Kim Yeon-kyung and the main characters of the Tokyo Olympics semifinals gathered in one place.



The Women's All-Star team is divided into M-Stars (born before 1996) and Z-Stars (born after 1996).



M stars include Kim Yeon-kyung, Park Jeong-ah (Korea Expressway Corporation), Yang Hyo-jin (Hyundai E&C), and Kim Hee-jin (IBK Industrial Bank of Korea).



Kim Yeon-kyung, who started off with her first serve, raised her spirits by performing a dance ceremony with her teammates whenever she scored a goal.



She brought a fan from the stands to the court and gave her the right to serve, giving her an unforgettable memory.



Kim Yeon-kyung, along with Kim Hee-jin, recorded 5 points (attack success rate 37.50%), the most in the M-star women's division.
