This team is better than it looks from the outside. 

It’s tight and the relationships between the players are good. “I’m having fun,” he said.

Director Kim Sang-sik’s presence played a big role in the transfer. 

Coach Kim took office ahead of last season and led the team to a combined championship.

He leads the players with his unique gentle leadership. Jeong Hyo-geun said, “Director Kim Sang-sik’s style itself values ​​autonomy within discipline. 

Also, he always tells us to live happily. As a result, it is an environment where I can enjoy playing basketball, which I love. “I respect and feel grateful,” he said.

He then smiled and said, “I am a player who has never won a championship,” and then added, “I just follow along diligently. The team atmosphere is really good. 

The players get along well with each other, and the trust and rapport with the manager and coaches is really good. “I trust and am following along,” he said emphatically.

I am receiving instruction from Coach Kim, who places importance on shooting.

I appreciate the feedback and will try to fix it,” he explained.

Jeong Hyo-geun said, “The director asks me to do things with confidence. Instead, he emphasizes not only attack, but also defense.

Even bad things must be done. If you work hard on defense first, you should be confident in your timing when attacking. 

I know what you want, so I will do my best to fulfill it,” he emphasized.

Cheong Kwan Jang is currently on a 5-game winning streak with solid defense. Jeong Hyo-geun also plays an important role.

He said, “The players’ understanding of defense is really good. He told me that I should play a central role in the defense, so I am paying a lot of attention to it.

(Park) Ji-hoon and (Choi) Seong-won also do not take defense lightly. 

He expressed his trust by saying, “He has the mindset that he has to play defense to win.”

Lastly, Jeong Hyo-geun said, “Rather than harvesting fruit, I try to build substance. 

I have no intention of being the only one to shine. The top priority is to achieve good results as a team.

That was the most important part when signing a free agent contract. Regardless of financial issues, I wanted a team where I could play basketball happily and have fun. 

He raised his voice, saying, “Thanks to Director Jeong, I think we are heading towards our goal.”
