Where to watch Bich Thuy compete in the Korean National Volleyball Championship?

Decisive series

The Korean National Volleyball Championship is one of the most important professional volleyball tournaments in the country, organized annually by the Korea Volleyball Association (KOVO) since 2005. After more than 20 seasons, the tournament has been a prestigious competition place for men's and women's volleyball clubs in this country.

The 2024-2025 season for women's teams has gone through 95/126 matches and is currently in its most intense stage. Similar to previous seasons, the 2024-2025 Korean National Volleyball Championship will take place in a home-away round-robin format, taking place in 6 rounds "across the year" from October 2024 to April 2025.

The team with the highest points after the group stage will go straight to the final, while the teams ranked below will participate in a play-off round to win a place in the final.

As of now, the current runner-up Incheon Heungkuk Life Pink Spiders is holding the top position with 43 points. This team has only stumbled 4 times, winning a total of 15 matches. This achievement is even higher than the current champion Suwon Hyundai E&C Hillstate.

Meanwhile, the two adjacent teams, Daejeon Jungkwanjang Red Sparks and Hwaseong IBK Altos, are close with not too much difference in scores.

The attraction of Bich Thuy

The 2024-2025 season of this tournament becomes even more special to Vietnamese fans because of the appearance of a female middle blocker from the Duc Giang Chemical Club - Tran Thi Bich Thuy. She joined the GS Caltex Seoul KIXX team with a short-term contract, lasting until the end of the season. This is the second foreign team in Bich Thuy's career, after Air Force (Thailand).

GS Caltex Seoul KIXX is a successful team in Korean women's volleyball, having won the domestic championship 12 times, most recently in the 2020-2021 season. This team has also won the KOVO Cup 6 times, and was crowned the Asian Club Championship in 1999.

Since Bich Thuy joined, Caltex Seoul KIXX has "transformed", winning 4 out of the last 8 matches. The recent victory over Hwaseong IBK Altos on February 8 also had a deep impression of the Hanoi-born middle blocker with 9 points scored after 3 sets.

Not only effective in attack, Bich Thuy also demonstrated impressive defensive ability, contributing to the 3-0 victory.

In this year's rankings, although GS Caltex Seoul KIXX has not yet shown its full strength, this team is still continuously pursuing and showing ambition to compete with strong opponents.
