Chung Kwan-kwan, head coach of the Red Sparks, Ko Hee-jin, talked about his concerns about foreign player Megawatti Puttywe 24 in the Asian quarter.

Chung lost to set score 1-3 19-25, 26-28, 25-23, 22-25 in the second round of the "Dodram 2023-2024 V-League" against IBK Industrial Bank Altos at Hwaseong Indoor Gymnasium in Gyeonggi Province on the 24th. It has been a five-game losing streak lately.

Jeong Gwan-gwan, who has been unable to get out of the losing streak, looked completely different in the first round. He finished third in the league with four wins, two losses and 11 points. Mega was at the center of the first-round rise.

In the first round, Mega ranked fourth in scoring 138 and second in attack success rate 48.5%, leading Chung Kwan-kwan's rise. As Mega, a foreign player in the Asian quarter, showed a good performance, Chung enjoyed the effect of two foreign players playing.

However, Mega's pace began to drop sharply in the second round. The score is still in fourth place in the league with 108 points, but the ranking also fell to ninth place as the attack success rate fell to 36.7%.

"Mega has a lot of thoughts," Chung Kwan-jang's manager Ko Hee-jin said in an interview before the game. It is a complicated situation in many ways. I think it's a psychological problem rather than a technical one. The weather suddenly gets cold and seems to be suffering from a lot of attention. I'm careful because I think I can even get homesick if I talk more. It's time to feel that way. As the game continues to lose, I can think of that more," he said. 사설토토

Ko Hee-jin, who praised Mega by saying, "He puts it down and tries to do well somehow," said, "I feel like a good player when I see him trying to win." He continued, "I spent time outside the other day eating Southeast Asian food. I went to a Thai restaurant because there were not many Southeast Asian restaurants in Daejeon. I thought what I could do now was buy me a hot meal. I barely talked about volleyball. I said let's eat and cheer up. I hope you do well," he said, cheering for Mega.

Encouraged by head coach Ko Hee-jin, Mega fought hard with 20 points 33.3% attack success rate on the day, but failed to prevent his team's defeat. Chung also fell to the bottom of the standings as he fell into a quagmire for five consecutive losses. Coach Ko Hee-jin said in an interview after the game, "The game doesn't come out the way I want it to. As a coach, there is nothing to be honest about the fact that he is losing five games in a row and his performance is not coming out. It's a day when I have a lot of thoughts," he said, expressing regret.
