Foreign player Victoria has scored the most points (455 points) in the league, and "native duo" Yuk Seo-young (196) and Hwang Min-kyung (139 points) are struggling, but Lee So-young's absence from her power due to a shoulder injury was always a shame.

Lee So-young, who was watching the team's ups and downs from the bench, was substituted in the final match of the third round against Jeong Kwan-jang on the 31st of last month and announced his revival by scoring 6 points with 57.14% of the attack success rate and 1 block and 1 serve ace each.
"I asked So-young to tell me when she thought she could do it, and I asked her to make all-out throws from then on," IBK Industrial Bank coach Kim Ho-chul said. "I waited thinking that the team would be completed when her physical condition returns." If Lee recovers her old skills, she will be able to ease the burden of offense that is focused on Victoria and come up with various attack options.
IBK Industrial Bank, which has built its full strength, will hold its first game of the fourth round against Gwangju Pepper Savings Bank at 7 p.m. on the 9th.
