After the game, Seo Myung-jin said, “It’s good to be able to finish well and win during three important matches. As it was an important game, I focused more. He scored evenly in the front line and rebounded comfortably in the back line,” he said, leaving a feeling of victory.
Hyundai Mobis had an advantage in every quarter except for the first quarter, when it was 24-27. Regarding the part that fell behind in the first quarter, Seo Myung-jin said, “I was still young and woke up late. The coach pushed from the beginning and told us not to lose to the opponent and to win, but it seems that we are still young, so we keep getting dragged from the beginning. We need to get rid of that part so we can grow, so we need to fix it.”
After the game, head coach Jo Dong-hyun commented on Seo Myung-jin that he was a passive player compared to what he had. Regarding this, Seo Myung-jin said, “I don’t know about other people, but it is true that I lose my boldness in play when I make two or three (shots) and turn over. Whenever that happens, coach Yang Dong-geun tells me to forget it. I’m trying to be active,” he said, explaining how to control his mind.
On this day, in the KOGAS matchup with Lee Dae-sung, Seo Myung-jin broke through Lee Dae-sung’s active defense and led the team to victory. Regarding Lee Dae-sung’s defense, “(Lee) Dae-sung and many other players actively try to defend. He said, “Today (22nd), (Kim) Young-hyeon and Dae-sung said that we should actively defend. When Daesung hyung was on our team, he taught me how to defend for a short while, and he reciprocated what he learned. Daesung boldly tried not to lose to hyung in a physical fight, and I am satisfied with the defensive part.”
