Professional volleyball women’s IBK Industrial Bank renewed the contract with Apogee Spiker Kim Hee-jin (32).
Industrial Bank of Korea announced on the 20th that it had signed a contract with Kim Hee-jin, who had qualified as a free agent (FA), for up to 350 million won (annual salary of 150 million won and an option of 200 million won) for one year. Kim Hee-jin, a founding member of IBK, scored 4170 points in 331 games and 1226 sets in 12 seasons. She won the regular league, championship match, and KOVO Cup three times each. 스포츠토토
In February, she underwent surgery on her right meniscus and needed a year of rehabilitation, but she showed her faith with a free agency contract. The Industrial Bank of Korea revealed the reason for the renewal of the contract, saying, “Kim Hee-jin is focusing on rehabilitation training to return to the court in a healthy body next season.”
IBK failed to retain middle blocker Kim Soo-ji (transferred to Heungkuk Life Insurance), an internal free agent, but reconstructed its power by bringing in Hwang Min-kyung, an outside hitter from Hyundai E&C.
