Lee Han-bi, who became the captain of the new team at the age of 24
Regardless of the sport, captaincy is a very burdensome position. Because ‘leading by example as a captain’ is emphasized, it is basic to have outstanding individual results, and teamwork should be as responsible as a coach. If there is a player who causes a problem in the team during the season, the captain along with the coach and club is often criticized. Therefore, each club also strives to select players who have both skills and personality when electing captains.
If you look at the captains of the seven V-League women’s teams, you can get a glimpse of each club’s wishes. First, the Korea Expressway Corporation (KGC), which has Park Jeong-ah as the captain, and Lee So-young, the KGC Ginseng Corporation, give another mission to the ace of the team. In fact, Park Jung-ah and Lee So-young, who have more younger siblings than older sisters in the team, are in a position where they need to assume the captaincy despite their age, and as the highest-paid players in the team, they need more responsibility.
Heungkuk Life Insurance Pink Spiders and Hyundai Engineering & Construction Hillstate, who are running 1st and 2nd this season, gave the captaincy to Kim Mi-yeon and Hwang Min-kyung, “housekeepers,” instead of putting another burden on the team’s aces Kim Yeon-kyung and Yang Hyo-jin. Coincidentally, Kim Mi-yeon and Hwang Min-kyung, who also ate a pot of rice at the road construction for five seasons from 2011 to 2016, are not players who play flashy, but they are players who are exemplary to their colleagues with excellent basic skills and sincere play.
In GS Caltex KIXX, middle blocker Han Su-ji, the oldest player in the team, is carrying out the captaincy as Lee So-young, who was the previous captain, left for Ginseng Corporation. Han Su-ji, a former setter, is his eldest sister and takes good care of his younger siblings and has high trust in his team. IBK Industrial Bank Altos was captained by Shin Yeon-gyeong libero instead of Kim Hee-jin or Pyo Seung-joo, who could be called local aces. Shin Yeon-kyung, the only libero captain of the seven clubs, took over the captaincy after setter Cho Song-hwa left without permission in the 2021-2022 season.
All six existing clubs have one thing in common: veteran players with more than 10 years of professional experience are captains. It is because experience is very important to represent the team as a captain. However, in Pepper Savings Bank, which built a team mainly of young players in 2021, there were no second-hand players who had enough experience on the professional stage. This is the reason why he had no choice but to entrust the first captaincy of the founding to Lee Han-bi, a 24-year-old new team player who was active in Heungkuk Life Insurance for six seasons.
Real exhaust reserve free agent with both air and defense
Lee Han-bi, who played an active part in Wongok High School with Kang So-hui (GS Caltex) in high school, joined Heungkuk Life Insurance as the third overall pick in the 2015 rookie draft. At the time Lee Han-bi joined, Heungkuk Life Insurance’s outside hitter was Lee Jae-young, who had established himself as the team’s ace from the rookie season, and Shin Yeon-kyung, who specialized in defense, as the main players. was looking for an opportunity.
However, from his rookie season, Lee Han-bi was given quite a few opportunities by former coach Park Mi-hee (KBS N Sports commentator), and showed the possibility of playing an active part as a native pair with Lee Jae-young in the future. However, ahead of the 2020-2021 season, “Volleyball Empress” Kim Yeon-kyung returned to Heungkuk Life Insurance, and eventually Lee Han-bi left Heungkuk Life Insurance and transferred to Pepper Savings Bank through a special nomination for a new club held in May 2021.
As a result, the transfer to the new club became a good opportunity for Lee Han-bi. Lee Han-bi, who took over as captain of Pepper Savings Bank as soon as he transferred, played in all 31 matches Pepper Savings Bank played in the 2021-2022 season, scoring 262 points, the most since his professional debut. And this season, Lee Han-bi recorded 350 points with a success rate of 34.67% in 29 games and a good receiving efficiency of 39.84%, showing a good performance far beyond last season.
Lee Han-bi led the team to a 3-2 victory by showing confident play in the match against Expressway Corporation, which was the victim of the season’s first victory on the 18th. On this day, Hanbi Lee, who was responsible for 29.70% of the offensive share and relieved the burden of main striker Nia Reed (36.97%), scored 21 points with a success rate of 38.78%. The 21 points recorded on this day is Lee Han-bi’s most points in the season, surpassing the 18 points recorded three times this season.
Lee Han-bi, who ranks 14th in points (8th in domestic players) and 12th in receiving efficiency, will be eligible for free agency for the first time in his life at the end of this season. Of course, the team that knows the value of Lee Han-bi best as an outside heater and captain is the current team, Pepper Savings Bank.
