Tomoko Yoshihara (Japan), the head coach of Heungkuk Life Insurance, who suffered a complete shutdown defeat against IBK Industrial Bank, expressed regret, saying, "I don't think it went well in us."

Heungkuk Life Insurance was completely defeated 0-3 (23-25, 26-28, 15-25) by IBK Industrial Bank of Korea in the women's home game of Jin Air 2025-2026 professional volleyball V-League at Samsan World Gymnasium in Incheon on the 6th.

With the defeat, Heungkuk Life Insurance remained at 48 points (15-12) without continuing its winning momentum against Pepper Savings Bank on the 1st. The gap with the leading Korea Expressway Corporation (20 wins, 6 losses, 55 points) remained at 7 points.

Heungkuk Life Insurance faced a fierce battle with IBK Industrial Bank in both the first and second sets on the day and suffered a come-from-behind defeat without winning this point even though it had only one or two points left to win.

In the end, Heungkuk Life Insurance, which completely gave up the flow, lost the third set 15-25. It is the first time in 14 games that Heungkuk Life Insurance suffered a complete 0-3 shutdown defeat since the Hyundai Construction match on December 6 last year.

Coach Yoshihara said, "There were some strong opponents' attacks, but our players were also rushing inside," adding, "We were beaten by the opponent, and there were some points we gave."

Heungkuk Life Insurance will go on an expedition to Hyundai Engineering & Construction on the 9th to try to change the atmosphere.
