Enkhsoyel Jamyaanpurev or Inkushi The entertainment show "Miracle Coach," featuring Korean volleyball star Kim Yong-kun, has become a real hit, fueling fans' interest in the new season of the V League and offering a behind-the-scenes look at the team coached by this legend.
Mongolian volleyball player Inkushi, whose full name is ENKHSOYLEL Jamyaanpurev, unexpectedly became a star of the show, winning the hearts of viewers with her inspiring journey to success, full of challenges and personal growth.
Inkushi, who left her family in Mongolia during her youth, faced numerous trials, including injuries, but always found the strength to rise again. Her sincere responses to Kim's questions, such as "Yes, yes," made her famous under the nickname "Nepkushi," which sounds like the Korean word for "yes" and the athlete's last name.
After the show ended, Inkushi returned to her educational institution but soon received an invitation to join the Jung Kwan Jang Red Sparks team, signing a contract as a replacement for the injured Thai attacker Wipawi Sritong.
On Wednesday morning, she returned from Mongolia, where she was obtaining a work visa, and later that same day arrived at the training center of Jeong Kwan Jang in Daejeon.
Enkhsoyel Jamyaanpurev or Inkushi attacks Despite her talents and hard work, there are some doubts. In April, Inkushi failed to qualify for the Asian qualifiers, and while Korean volleyball players with similar skills may get training opportunities, foreign players are expected to deliver instant results.
Jeong Jin, the head coach of the Mokpo Women's Commercial High School where Inkushi studied, shares a memory of how she even considered changing her citizenship in her youth, anticipating possible difficulties. However, the standard naturalization process in Korea requires at least five years, and Inkushi arrived in the country only in 2022.
Ultimately, it was Kim who helped Inkushi realize her dream of a professional career. When Inkushi announced her contract, Kim reportedly told her, "This is just the beginning. Show everything you are capable of."
What did I learn from Kim? Self-confidence and a positive attitude.
"I used to give up easily, thinking I couldn't do anything," Inkushi recalls a moment from Japan during filming. "But then I gained confidence and decided to take action. At first, I was in tears and couldn't eat, not understanding why I couldn't handle the tasks. But I promised myself to showcase my abilities, and in the end, I was praised."
She continues to follow Kim's advice: "Regardless of failures, maintain a positive attitude."
Her recent visit to Mongolia was a triumphant return, as more people learned about her thanks to the show. However, her family's reaction was quite reserved.
"My parents didn't watch the program and don't understand how popular the V League is," Inkushi said. "They just advised me to take care of my health." However, her mother added, "Don't be afraid — give it your all."
Inkushi comes from a sports family: her father is a traditional Mongolian wrestler, and her mother is a former volleyball player.
"They always told me to watch my diet and take care of my health," she added.
Inkushi made her V League debut on Friday, playing a home match against GS Caltex. There are high hopes for her, especially considering that her predecessor, Megawati Hangestri Pertivi, was a star of the previous season.
She identifies her main strength as attacking potential but acknowledges that her defensive game needs improvement.
"In Mongolia during my youth, we didn't pay much attention to fundamentals like defense," she explained.
Enkhsoyel Jamyaanpurev or Inkushi Inkushi has always paid attention to additional training outside of team practices since early school. After joining Jeong Kwan Jang, she began evening training sessions with coach Lee Kang-joo, who was a libero and a defense expert.
When asked who she wants to emulate, Inkushi named Pyo Seung-joo, who successfully handled both attack and defense on the show.
"She was one of those players who just did everything without being told," Inkushi noted. When told that such players are called "salrimkkun" or "home players," she smiled and repeated, "Salrimkkun, salrimkkun."
Numerous fans hope that Inkushi will one day obtain Korean citizenship and be able to represent the country. This is just one of the possible facets of her future.
"First, I want to succeed as a player competing under the Asian quota," she stated. "If I am recognized, perhaps later I can change my citizenship and have the opportunity to participate in the rookie draft as a Korean athlete."
