This victory is also the first victory for Fernando Morales (Puerto Rico) since taking over as the head coach of the women's national team.

On this day, Korea had the upper hand over Thailand in blocking matches (12:8) and error management (13:25).

Kang So-hwi (22 points) exploded with the most points scored by both teams, while Jeong Ji-yoon (Hyundai Engineering & Construction) and Park Jung-ah (Pepper Savings Bank) scored 16 points each.

Middle blockers Lee Ju-ah (IBK Industrial Bank) and Lee Da-hyun (Hyundai Engineering & Construction) were responsible for 11 points and 8 points, including 5 blocks and 2 blocks, respectively.

Kim Da-in (Hyundai Engineering & Construction) and Han Da-hye (Pepper Savings Bank) contributed to the victory.

After finishing the first week of the competition fresh, South Korea will move to Arlington, Texas, the U.S., to play the second week of the competition from the 30th.
