KB Insurance setter Shin Seung-hoon (25) will leave on loan to Taiwan's professional volleyball stage.

KB Insurance said Shin Seung-hoon will transfer to Taiwan's TPVL League's East Power Volleyball Team for about five months from January to June this year.

According to the club, Shin Seung-hoon left for Taiwan via Incheon International Airport on the 1st.

Shin Seung-hoon said, "I am truly grateful to the club for giving me a chance to grow," adding, "It is an unfamiliar environment, but I will adapt quickly and grow one step further to contribute to KB Insurance's victory in the next season."

KB Insurance said, "We decided to lease overseas this time so that we can maximize the strengths of the players and develop their ability to operate the actual game to grow into a major resource for the team's next season."

"Due to the nature of the setter position, we judged that the actual experience of leading various game situations is essential," he said. "Shin Seung-hoon's performance as a member of the Armed Forces Sports Unit at the 'Winstrick International Volleyball Invitational Competition' held in Taiwan in May also helped with the lease."

At that time, a Taiwanese league official who watched Shin Seung-hoon's physical conditions and game management ability showed interest, and KB Insurance also judged that it was the best opportunity for players to develop their skills, so the overseas loan was decided through consultation between the two sides.

An official from KB Insurance said, "We decided to lease this time to build a stable power of setters following Lee Hyun-seung's enlistment in the Korean Armed Forces Sports Unit in 2026, and we hope that Shin Seung-hoon's ability to manage the game will grow through his real-time experience." We will help him return to the team after finishing the Taiwanese league safely," he said.
