After graduating from Yonsei University, head coach Kim Tae-sul participated in the 2007 KBL Rookie Draft and made his debut as the No. 1 player in the first round, and his basketball sense and passing skills made Kim Tae-sul special.
After playing for Jeonju KCC and Seoul Samsung, he joined Wonju DB in the 2019-2020 season, suffered some difficulties due to aging and injuries, and announced his retirement at the end of the 2020-2021 season.
After retiring, he left the basketball world for a while, but returned to his alma mater, Yonsei University, in July last year.
Yoon Ho-jin, head coach of Yonsei University, said of Kim Tae-sul, “It hasn’t been long since (Kim) Tae-sul has been with me. He still tries to do his best. He is giving experience to young players,” he said.
Coach Kim, who returned to the court as a coach, said, “I’m nervous and learning because there’s a big tournament ahead,” adding, “In fact, when I first got an offer, I had a lot of difficulties,” adding, “There was a regular season, a playoffs, and there wasn’t much I could do, so I thought about how to help the team and accepted the coach’s offer.”
Later, when asked about head coach Kim’s role, he replied, “Tactics and strategies are done by the coach,” adding, “I try to help the players psychologically,” and at the same time, I help the players follow the coach’s instructions.”
“We don’t have much time until the competition. You can’t turn your weaknesses into strengths now. That’s why players are trying to improve what they are good at. That is important now,” he added.
Since then, coach Kim has emphasized the team’s victory. “No matter what game you win, the value of a player increases. It’s the same whether it’s a practice game or a regular game. We emphasize this aspect to the players as well. Everyone should play with one mind. That’s when victory ensues.”
Finally, when I asked head coach Kim about the strengths of Yonsei University guards, he tactfully replied, “I will not comment on this because Korea University can see it.”
“What’s certain is that our guard is better than the ancient guard,” he said. “Even if I don’t, I’ll make it so,” he said, wrapping up the determination.
