“I think we’ll get through it because we have Suji.”
Kim Yeon-kyung 35 and Kim Soo-ji 36 of Heungkuk Saengsaeng, 현금홀덤사이트 who were classmates in elementary, middle and high school, played at the same time for the first time in a long time. It was the first time they played in the same uniform after their professional careers.
Heungkuk Life started both Kim Yeon-kyung and Kim Soo-ji in a practice game against the JT Marvels in Nishinomiya, Hyogo Prefecture, Japan, on April 16, as part of a full-scale strength check four weeks before the start of the season.
After the game, Kim Yeon-kyung spoke about playing with Kim Soo-ji, saying, “Soo-ji joined us at the end of July, so we’ve been playing together for almost a month and a half. I have a friend I can rely on, so I’m looking forward to this season.”
“It’s nice to be able to get advice and rely on her when I’m in the process of building my physical condition,” Kim said.
Kim Yeon-kyung signed a free agent contract with Heungkuk Life. Kim Soo-ji, who played for IBK, also signed a free agent contract with Heungkuk Life. She got to play on the same team as her friend Kim Yeon-kyung.

“I was so happy when I heard that Suzy had signed with Heungkuk Life,” Kim said. We won the regular season title but missed out on the overall title, so we needed to strengthen our team. Suzy’s arrival will give the team a boost. It’s even better because she’s a close friend,” he said, welcoming her to the team.
“I have to do well to live up to expectations. I signed the contract with that in mind,” she said.
She also opened up about her retirement, which was mentioned during the last season. Kim Yeon-kyung said, “For me, I’m thinking about different directions. Suzy also has something she wants to do and is thinking a lot about whether to do it.”
Kim Soo-ji also said, “Now that I’m older, I’m trying to focus on volleyball for the rest of my career, but I’m also trying to gain experience when I have the chance during the off-season. I’m hoping to find the right fit.”
Finally, when asked about the upcoming season, Kim said, “I think we’ll be able to get through it because we have Suzy.” Kim also said, “There will be bumps in the road, but it will be fun. There will be different situations, but we will do what we can each time.”
Kim Yeon-kyung and Kim Soo-ji both said that they want to add another star to the podium. They also promised to work hard together to win the title.
Heungkuk Life will play one more practice game with JT on the 19th before returning home on the 20th.
