Korean Air isn’t done yet.
Facing elimination, Incheon Korean Air Jumbos pulled off a dominant 3-0 win against Uijeongbu KB Insurance at Incheon’s Gyeyang Gymnasium, tying the playoff series and forcing a decisive Game 3 in the Korean V-League men’s volleyball semifinals.
US opposite Kyle Russell led the charge with 22 points, the highest of the match, while Han-Yong Jeong chipped in 10 to help seal the deal. Korean Air took the first set convincingly, 25-18, and then stayed cool under pressure to win the next two sets, both 25-22.
On the other side, KB’s Gyeong-Bok Na and Andrés Villena each scored 14 points, but it wasn’t enough to stop the surge from Korean Air.
Now, the two teams are headed for a high-stakes final clash on March 30 in Uijeongbu. With momentum on their side, could Korean Air pull off another comeback story? We’ll find out soon.
