“For the first time in my career, I didn’t make the playoffs. I felt bad.”

Korea Gas Corporation was anxious until the first round of 2023 and 2023. The most worrisome factor was the guard squad. Most of them were unverified ball handlers, including SJ Bellangel (177 centimeters, G) and Yang Joon-woo (184 centimeters, G). 에볼루션 바카라사이트

Of course, Bellangel did his bit. As the main ball handler and main scorer on the outside, he created synergy with Andrew Nicholson (206 cm, F)-Lee Dae-heon (196 cm, F).

But it wasn’t easy for him alone. So Kang Hyuk, acting coach of Korea Gas Corporation (currently Daegu Korea Gas Corporation), waited for Han. His name was Kim Nak-hyun (184 centimeters, G).

Kim Nak-hyun showed outstanding performance from the return match (2023.11.16 vs. Seoul SK). For 33 minutes and 27 seconds, he showed great performance with 26 points, six assists and one rebound (attack). He met the expectations of fans of Korea Gas Corporation.

However, Kim suffered from knee pain afterwards. It was hard to guarantee that he would play in the court. He only played 22 minutes and 25 seconds on average in 33 games between 2023 and 2024. He was satisfied with his performance of 10.6 points and 3.1 assists and 2.1 rebounds per game.

Kim Nak-hyun said, “I felt I lacked a lot. In particular, my knees were not good, so I didn’t get any performance-related movements. I only had shots, and I was slow in my movements. I thought I had to make my body well first,” and looked back on the 2023-2024 season.

Meanwhile, Korea Gas Corporation (KGC) partially overhauled its power after the end of the 2023-2024 season. Key to this is Jung Sung-woo (178 cm, G). With his defense and ball-carrying capabilities, Jung can empower the KGC’s guards.

Although Jung Sung-woo is said to have joined, Kim Nak-hyun is a non-fungible option at Korea Gas Corporation. This is especially true among ballhandlers. In the 2024-2025 season, you have to play more hours and do more.

Kim Nak-hyun said, “My knees were not good, so the coach controlled it. So my playing time was around 20 minutes. I appreciated the coach’s consideration. But when I had to score and when I had to be centered, there were not enough players to take the center stage on the court. For that reason, the team easily collapsed at the final destination. I think I solved the games that I could win with difficulty,” and explained the things that I was disappointed about in the 2023-2024 season first.

After that, he said, “I have to get rid of the regrets I mentioned earlier. I have more guards, but I have to do my part. At the same time, I have to lead my teammates well. That’s what I have to do in the next season,” explaining his duties for the 2024-2025 season.

The name “Kim Nak-hyun” should be considered a lot by Korea Gas Corporation as well. Kim Nak-hyun will be released as a free agent after the end of the 2024-2025 season. For that reason, Korea Gas Corporation honored Kim Nak-hyun as the “No. 1 payer within the team (a total of 500 million won).”

“It’s good, but it’s not always good,” Kim said. “(Laughs) The sense of responsibility and pressure has increased that much. However, if you are a high-paid worker, you should feel it. That’s why I try to focus on trivial matters, such as my voice during training and movements when exercising. I also need to communicate with the players a lot,” he said, paying attention to the sense of responsibility.

“I always went to the playoffs from the time I debuted until right before joining the military. It was a career that I could brag about.” Kim Nak-hyun, who talked about his sense of responsibility, said. “However, I did not play in the playoffs last season. It was my first time experiencing it, so I didn’t feel good,” he said, expressing the pain of failing to play in the playoffs for the first time.

He continued, “I will continue the title of ‘Playoffs consecutively’ from next season. To do so, I will do my best. I will prioritize team performance and exercise. If the team performs well, my evaluation will improve,” he said, vowing to ‘playoffs’.

Lastly, he said, “I hope all the players communicate well so that we can be a team that does not fall apart.” It was most meaningful. It was a comment that expressed the direction of Korea Gas Corporation.
