Woori Card's acting coach Park Chul-woo (41) wanted the players to focus on the present without caring about anything else.

Woori Card will meet Korean Air in the fourth round of the men's regular league of Jin Air 2025-2026 V-League at Jangchung Gymnasium in Seoul on the 8th.

It is the first home game since Park Chul-woo became an acting coach. Woori Card terminated its contract under mutual agreement with Mauricio Paes (63) on the 30th of last month. The reason was a reversal of mood.

Acting coach Park Chul-woo took over as Woori Card's coach in April last year, eight months later. It was the first game against Busan OK Savings Bank on the 2nd and won the first game after a full set.

Acting coach Park Chul-woo, who met with reporters before the game, said, "It's the worst situation that that situation has come. The best thing is to finish the game with seven key players fixed. The OK match was losing 2-0, and the atmosphere needed to be reversed. I was thinking of coming to Plan C, but Han Sung-jung showed a much better performance than during practice, so the flow came over to us," he said.

"Ali's back was bad in the last game, so he went all the way to Plan C. Ali asked me to put him in the entry, but I'd rather take a good rest when I rest. Today, Ali's body condition is close to 100%, so I think we'll have to wait and see. If I don't get better, I'll put in Han Sung-jung," he added.

This day is also important in that it is a golden opportunity to catch Korean Air leading in its first home game since taking over as the head coach. Woori Card is currently in sixth place with 7 wins and 12 losses (21 points). On the other hand, Korean Air, which has recently lost two consecutive games due to the departure of all its main players, is trailing second-ranked Hyundai Capital (12-7, 38 points) by three points with 14 wins and five losses (41 points).

Acting coach Park Chul-woo said, "It's nothing more special because it's a home game. I don't want to win more because I'm an agent. I also told the players not to think about the next thing and to focus on the present moment. If I enjoy it, I think I can enjoy it," he said.
