'Volunteer' started the national championship last match with a risky 1 win and 1 loss.
On the broadcast of KBS2 'Volunteer' on 17th, a match against the Seoul and Gyeongin Alliance, which is the final hurdle for the futsal national championship, took place. The opponent for the first match was the Seoul City Hall Amazons, led by 'the godmother of Korean women's soccer,' Yoo Young-sil. In opposition, the 'Volunteer' team featured Korea Hee, a member of the U-17 women's soccer team, known as 'the second female Son Heung-min,' who participated as a special wildcard. Lee Chan-won described this match as 'the game where the past, present, and future of Korean women's soccer come together.' With two goals from another 'women’s soccer legend,' Jeon Ga-eul, 'Volunteer' won the match 4 to 1. Lee Chan-won stated, 'Although we lost, there is absolutely no need to be discouraged. There is obviously a physical difference,' and sent support to Seoul City Hall Amazons.
In the subsequent match against Eunpyeong FS, 'Volunteer' again failed to surpass the wall of the professional team. Jung Dae-se, who scored the first goal, remarked earlier about Lee Yong-pyo’s biweekly working order, saying, 'I couldn't believe in myself either. Only now can I break down the wall and move forward again,' confessing the burdens he had been feeling. Defensive key player Kim Dong-cheol showed a fighting spirit despite injuries during the match, igniting a strong desire for victory. Lee Chan-won expressed concern, saying, 'While it is important to work hard in the match and win, one must absolutely not get injured.' Eventually, as 'Volunteer' suffered a reverse defeat with a score of 3 to 1, Lee Chan-won couldn't hide his disappointment, saying, 'The teams that are ranking high in the professional league are different.'
Meanwhile, it was revealed that the subject of the heated controversy regarding Lee Yong-pyo's 'ex-girlfriend's workplace sighting' was his wife. Eunpyeong FS's Choi Jin-kyu exposed, 'A teacher from the study room I attended in the past brought her boyfriend, and that was Lee Yong-pyo,' leaving everyone surprised. When Kim Young-gwang asked, 'That’s your sister-in-law, right?' Lee Yong-pyo replied, 'That’s correct,' confirming the name of the area at that time and relieving everyone's worry.
Additionally, Lee Chan-won asked LIFE FC coach Lee Jun-hyung, 'As you guide youth players, which player stands out the most on 'Volunteer'?' In response, Lee Jun-hyung chose Baek Ji-hoon, mentioning, 'The kids have developed a lot visually.' This prompted 'the three brothers of stringent inspections,' Kim Young-gwang, Jo Won-hee, and Jung Dae-se, to respond with, 'Is it about looks again?' and 'What’s important about the appearance?' adding more laughter.
The futsal challenge of soccer legends, who also give back while playing, 'Volunteer' airs every Saturday at 10:40 p.m. on KBS2.
