The series will tell the stories of six legendary Korean pro-volleyball players with three chapters each per player. The six players will be selected from the list of players named as legends in 2014 for the 10th anniversary of the V-League (Sorry, I haven't been able to find this list). The webtoon series will begin with the story of volleyball superstar Kim Yeon-Koung. "V Beyond the Net" will be serialised every Thursday with Chapter 1 released today (Sorry, it all in Korean). The series will be available for the next 5 months on Naver Webtoon (https://comic.naver.com/webtoon/list.nhn?titleId=736875) and KOVO website (I have no idea where). Source: 1

Current Team Standings:

The condition of Maya knee doesn't look good. I don't think she has taken a swing but she has already been sub off early in set 1.

Talking about KGC, did anyone see Diouf's serve at 5-3 in set 4 against Hyundai?

That ball touched the line as it compressed down onto the court.

I don't understand why the video referees called the serve 'out' but in a similar situation later on in the same set at 19-22, they video referees ruled the spike from Yang Hyo-Jin toward the sideline as 'in'. I just don't get it.

question.

I havent really watched or paid attention to kgc games as much but did Jung Ho-Young(next kyk) play any games yet?

tiffany wrote:

I saw her play as substitute in few games

but just short time play

i don/t know why media keep comparing her to kyk

didn't she play as MB, not OH ?

and from the match that I saw, she still haven't make impressive effect much on her team

at the moment, I think Lee Dahyun (hyundai) is the best rookie

ah. so sad lee sooyoung is injured

I guess she will not join NT for olympic qualification in january

surprisingly, she was a pretty good libero when they played against US in World Cup

Jung Ho-Young (JHY) has made appearances in all of KGC matches so far except for the last match against Hyundai E&C. She has mostly came on as a sub to block.

JHY stats so far:

The Korean media were the ones that gave her the label of 'Second KYK' when she first appears in middle school.

JHY receiving needs to improve is an obvious fact but she also lacks power and is a bit slow. Like most rookies, she is often unsure of where or what she should be doing whilst on the court.

JHY wants to play as an outside hitter (OH) and knows she needs to improve.

From what I know, she wasn't truly allowed to learn how to be a receiving OH during high school. Only on the odd occasions, did she take on some of the receiving but never regularly.

During her first year of high school, JHY could not play in competitive matches due to rules regarding her move to a high school in a different area to her middle school. In her second year, she was able to play as an OH but the senior players covered the receiving duties. In her final year, JHY plays mainly as a middle blocker due to the lack of height in the team. Sometimes however, she would move to the wings to attack.

I agreed. Lee Da-Hyeon from Hyundai is the best rookie so far. Hands down.

LDY stats so far:

News Update:

• According to GS Caltex officials on the 18th, Lee So-Young was diagnosed with a ruptured of Lisfranc ligament (around the ankle and instep area) on her right foot. The official also stated that it would take about 6-7 weeks before she returns. Hospital examination results suggest it would be difficult for her to return before the women's V-League break begins on December 19. It is estimated Lee So Young will miss about eight games.
  
  Sources: 1, 2, 3

So she will miss the remaining three games in Round 2 and all five games in Round 3. The Asian Olympic Qualifiers will be held on January 7-12th. Six-seven weeks means she will return between the end of December and beginning of January. Sadly it looks likely she will not be part of the Asian Olympic Qualifiers in Thailand.

heungkuk vs gs

wow jaeyeong 40pts! anyone knows if this is her most personal points per game? seriously though, like someone mentioned earlier, it's like watching finals! great game

Yes, this is Jae-Yeong new personal best.

Her previous best was 37 points (35 spikes, 1 ace, and 1 block) against IBK on November 25th, 2017 (Rd 2 of 2017/18 season). Source: 1, 2, 3

Both teams spiking success rate was really good.

Is it possible that Atkinson is coming back to Korean league now she seems to be recovered? This is the kind of impression I got from her instastories.

No sure. Teams are only allow to change foreign player once. Maybe she can play for one of the other five teams.

I don't see any recent instagram stories on her account https://www.instagram.com/sherreezzyy/ that indicate her going back to Korea.

FYI Heungkuk can still make another foreign player change because they never registered Giulia Pascucci.

I can't wait to watch this KIXX game, and bet it will, again, feel like some sort of Finals Showdown. Reading up above that LJY scored 40 points I was scared my KIXX had lost two in a row. Phew!

Yeah, GS escaped with the win but at a hefty cost.

Wow! I'm kind of surprised.

Not because Hisamitsu lost, but rather the fact they lost it in straight sets against Himeji.

Three 5-sets matches in a row. What a week of interesting matches.

Maya is having her worst day yet... She was subbed by Hwang YJ in early 3rd set and didn't play again until the end of the match....The MBs were on fire, Yang Hj, Jung JH and Lee DH worked really well in scoring and blocking....

Hyundai finally managed to defeated Heungkuk. Hyundai have been unable to defeat Heungkuk since round 5 of the 2017/18 season. If Hyundai had lost the match, it would have been nine straight wins for Heungkuk in the league.

Maya had another poor game. 0% spiking efficiency again, 3 spike kills, 2 spikes blocked and 3 spiking errors from her 14 attempts. It seems Maya has some kind of problem with her knee (tendonitis) too but according to Hyundai it is not serious. You can see Maya with ice packs around her right knee in the break before the start of set 4 (1:41:33 in the replays). Sources: 1, 2, 3

Beside Yang Hyo-Jin, I though Hwang Min-Kyoung had an excellent game, both offensively and defensively. Both Hyundai's young MBs Jeong Ji-Yun and Lee Da-Hyeon were also solid. with the pair scoring key points to help Hyundai levelled with Heungkuk in the 5th.

I kind of want to see how Hyundai try to play with both of the youngsters together with Da-Hyeon playing MB and Ji-Yun playing as a non-receiving wing spiker.

I've only seen abit of set 2 going into set 3. but is it me or just me lol, it seems like cho songhwa's sets hasnt been in sync with their foreigner yet. it's not just this game but previous games also. it's always fun watch the sisters verse eachother hahahaha heungkuk lost but at the end of the day, I'm always proud of my girl.

You're right . not just you.... Cho SH and the backup setter both didn't sync with Lucia when she was in OP position.. most of the setting was too low for Lucia.,,, ... Lee Jy was also not having a good day compare with the match before this... Luckily Kim Mi-Yeon was good in covering both lee JY and Lucia....

I noticed Lucia sometime awkwardly jumping in (like she is leaning inward) or having to change direction suddenly when the ball is set to her.

Yeah, I like watching the twin play against each other too. Especially when they are bantering each other or celebrating winning a point against the other.

That's odd... I thought it was gonna be KGC vs Kixx, but it turned out KGC v Hi-Pass... Kixx is the only team that haven't play in round 2... while Hillstate, Pink Spiders, n Hi-Pass are already have 2 matches... The schedules seem "unbalanced" IMO....

Yeah, the schedule is not very balanced. Some teams get long break at the start of the rounds while others get long break towards the end. Even the number of home and away games are unbalanced in each round too. For example, Hyundai had only one home match in Round 1. I'm not sure as to the reason(s) why this is the case. Maybe it is because four of the women's teams share the same home courts with the men's teams.

hahaha just rewatched the highlights of jaeyeong getting headshot by maya.

Ooh... ouch! That got to hurt. That ball bounced quite a long way off Jae-Yeong face. It went from the left side of the court all the way to where the bench was on the right side of the court. Maya went to apologies but she was afraid of getting beaten up by Jae-Yeong.
