OK Savings Bank lost to Woori Card with a score of 2:3 (25:22, 28:26, 22:25, 24:26, 8:15) in a dramatic match on January 2, 2026, which lasted 2 hours and 27 minutes.

Bulgarian opposite hitter Dimitar Dimitrov played a very strong match and was his team's top scorer. He finished the game with 21 points, including 1 ace, 2 block points, and 18 attack kills, achieving a 42% success rate in offense. Despite his solid performance, his efforts were not enough to secure the victory for the Busan team.

OK Savings Bank took a 2:0 lead in sets, but could not hold onto their advantage and allowed a complete comeback. In the tie-break, Woori Card set a higher tempo and convincingly closed out the match.

This defeat is the tenth for Dimitar Dimitrov's team this season. The Busan team holds fifth place in the standings with 9 wins, and while the battle for higher positions remains open, such losses after holding a lead are already seriously weighing on the team's ambitions.
