KBS N, an affiliate of KBS, announced on March 27 that it will host the Jeju 2026 Women’s Volleyball Top Club Super Match this August in Jeju. <\/p>\n

The event will feature top women’s professional clubs from South Korea, China and Japan in an international friendly designed to boost the competitiveness of Asian women’s volleyball and expand cross-border exchanges. KBS N will organize the tournament, with the Jeju Special Self-Governing Province serving as sponsor. <\/p>\n

Matches are scheduled for Aug. 1\u20132 at Jeju Halla Gymnasium. <\/p>\n

The tournament carries added significance because it brings together clubs that volleyball icon Kim Yeon-koung represented during her career. With Heungkuk Life, Osaka Marvelous and Shanghai Bright\u2014teams Kim starred for\u2014joined by Hyundai E&C, organizers describe the event as an expansion of Kim Yeon-koung’s legacy. <\/p>\n

The competition will be a friendly event with no prize money; any revenue will be returned to a local sports development fund. KBS N said it aims to promote the public value of sport and help stimulate the local economy beyond on-court results. <\/p>\n

KBS N plans to pair live game coverage with a feature documentary and additional content to position Jeju as a hub for Asian exchange and to showcase an international event model that blends sports and culture. <\/p>\n

“This tournament is more than a friendly match; it’s a starting point for Asian women’s volleyball to grow together,” a KBS N official said. “We hope this Jeju-based initiative will set a new standard for Asian exchange.” <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
