There are many fresh faces participating for the first time in the 2024-25 V League All-Star Game.
Rookie players who were born in the 2000s will also make their debut in the All-Star Game. Kim Joon-woo, a former rookie of the year and second in men’s blocking (0.647 per set) will proudly perform in the All-Star Game. Han Tae-joon, a setter for Woori Card who is in his second year as a pro, was also invited to the stage of his dream.
GS Caltex setter Kim Ji-won, who won the Rising Star Award at the 2023 Gumi and Dodram Cup professional volleyball tournaments, and Korea Expressway Corporation middle blocker Kim Se-bin, who is spending his first season in the first round of the rookie draft, will also play in the All-Star Game for the first time.
As the V League introduced the Asian quarter system from this season, Asian quarter players will also participate in the All-Star Game.
Another point to watch is to watch the All-Star Game performances of OK Financial Group middle blocker Bayarsai Batsu from Mongolia, KEPCO Libero Ryohei Iga from Japan, setter IBK Industrial Bank Ponfun Gedfard from Thailand, and Apogit Spiker Mega Watti Puttiwi (registered name Mega) from Indonesia.
Yosvani Hernandez (Samsung Fire & Marine Insurance), who is in his fourth season in the V-League, will also participate in the All-Star Game for the first time. Mattei Kok (Uri Card), the only V-League freshman among the seven foreign players, received an invitation to “War of the Stars” in his first season. In the women’s league, GS Caltex Silva and Pepper Savings Bank Yasmin will appear. “I want to have a salsa dance with Cha Sang-hyun at the All-Star game,” Silva said.
Some of the V-League’s native veterans are new to the All-Star Game.
Kwak Myung-woo, an OK Financial Group setter in his 11th year as a professional, said, “I’ve been playing for 10 seasons (except military service) this year, and it’s my first time attending the All-Star Game. I’ve considered the All-Star break as a time to reorganize, but I’ll make a fun game as I feel excitement and anticipation with my first appearance.”
Pyo Seung-joo, who entered the V-League as the No. 1 랭크카지노 player in the first round of the 2010-11 season of the rookie draft, is already in his 14th season. “I’m excited and worried to participate in the All-Star Game for the first time. As I’m participating in the All-Star Game for the first time thanks to fans’ love and support, I’ll show you a good performance with gratitude.”
This year’s V League All-Star Game will be held on the 27th at Samsan World Gymnasium in Incheon, the home of Heungkuk Life.
