Yang Hyo-jin (Hyundai Engineering & Construction), who left the court after this season, won the "New Record Award."

The Korean Volleyball Federation held the "Jin Air 2025-2026 V-League Awards" at 4 p.m. on the 13th at Grand Walkerhill Seoul Vista Hall in Gwangjang-dong, Gwangjin-gu, Seoul.

On this day, awards were held, including the men's and women's regular league MVP (MVP), the best 7 to select the best players in each position, and the Young Player Award to a young player who stood out within the third year.

V-League 'Legend' Yang Hyo-jin received the 'New Record Award'. Middle blocker Yang Hyo-jin, who represents Korean women's volleyball, will say goodbye to the friendly court after this season. Yang Hyo-jin, who took his first step in the V-League in the 2007-2008 season, is the iconic franchise star of the team that played only in Hyundai E&C's uniforms for 19 seasons.

He has reigned as the league's top player based on his blocking, sharp fastball and undulating scoring ability using his excellent height.

His record as a one-club man at Hyundai Engineering & Construction is also unrivaled. He set a milestone of 1,748 blocks and 364 serve aces, including 8,406 points in total. In addition, he ended his spectacular career with 17 All-Star Game appearances and 12 Best 7 awards.

Yang Hyo-jin said, "It's my 19th award ceremony, and when I was a rookie, I came here (to attend) without winning the award. At that time, I dreamed of receiving an award every season, but I'm honored to receive an award until the end," he said, expressing his pride.

When asked what kind of senior he wanted to be remembered, he said, "I actually didn't want to be remembered in any way since I was young. I also wanted to be a helpful colleague to my juniors, regardless of my senior." "These days, I'm busy taking out my luggage that has been kept for 19 years. I should take out my luggage and go to bed."
