Daegu Korea Gas Corporation Pegasus has been conducting off-season training in Japan since the 4th. As it is the last quenching for the upcoming season, all the players are showing passion, and Kim Nak-hyun is also leading the team well as the vice-captain of the team. 

"I am satisfied because I am playing well and performing well in training without any injuries. I tested what I was preparing in Korea in the match against the Japanese team, and the results are satisfactory," Kim Nak-hyeon told reporters ahead of the training session on Wednesday afternoon. 

In the 2023-2024 season, Kim returned from Sangmu and joined the team, but only played 33 games due to a knee injury. Last season, Kim's appearance was the lowest since he played 27 games as a rookie. 

Korea Gas Corporation, which had a power leak due to the absence of Kim Nak-hyun, the team's ace, was unfortunately eliminated from the playoffs, finishing seventh with 21 wins and 33 losses. In addition, Kim Nak-hyun made the playoffs for all five consecutive seasons since her debut, but was eliminated last season and was unable to play spring basketball for the first time. As much as it was regrettable, Kim Nak-hyun's eyes preparing for the upcoming season were more courageous than ever. 

"I worked out through weight training and rehabilitation training during the off-season, and I hardly have any pain in my knees," Kim said. "After living like that, I have no problem with my physical condition at all. I hope other players don't get hurt, either. (Kim) Yang-dong and (Kim) Cheol-wook are out due to injuries, but the rest of the players are telling me not to get hurt." 

"I had a good off-season and have worked well with my teammates since the summer. I had a rough start to the last season, but I hope Korea Gas Corporation's team color will come out well from the first round. Then, I think we will naturally be in the semi-finals," he added. 

Ahead of this season, Kim Nak-hyun has been appointed as vice-captain and is trusted by head coach Kang Hyuk. With captain Chabawi leading the team with heavy leadership, what part of the team does vice-captain Kim Nak-hyun focus on in leading the team. 

Kim Nak-hyun said, "As I get a lot of salary and get appointed as vice-captain, I feel more responsibility and a little bit of pressure. Although I am facing FA and many situations overlap, the top priority is for the team to perform well this year. If my performance is good, I think my evaluation will naturally improve. I aim to advance to the semifinals first and then to the semifinals by performing well." 

Meanwhile, ahead of this season, Korea Gas Corporation has gained weight on the roster by simultaneously recruiting Jung Sung-woo and Kwak Jung-hoon as FA, and if Jeon Hyun-woo and Woo Dong-hyun, who will soon be discharged from Sangmu, return, they will form a solid power that is second to none. 

Also, with the addition of Jeong Seong-woo, who has a strong defense capability, Korea Gas Corporation (KGC) has established a strong guard team consisting of Kim Nak-hyun, Bellangel, and Jung Sung-woo. Then, what do you think about the teamwork between the guard position players. 

"First of all, I think we got better after Jung Sung-woo joined our team's defense," Kim Nak-hyun said. "Jung Sung-woo has great defense capabilities. He also teaches know-how to younger players and the players are taking it well. Overall, the atmosphere is good. With Jung Sung-woo's arrival, we were able to maximize our fast basketball and defense capabilities," smiling, "Belangel and I, who were in the past, continue our styles, and (Kwak) Jung-hoon also tries to keep pace with the coach's orders to shoot a lot of shots."
