Cha Sang-hyun has been officially appointed as the head coach of the Korean women's volleyball team, signing a 1+2 year contract with the Korea Volleyball Association. The contract includes a mid-term evaluation after the Asian Games in September 2026, determining whether to extend the agreement. Cha, who previously coached GS Caltex and served as a commentator, is focused on team composition, starting with consultations with club coaches. A key challenge for Cha and his assistant coach Lee Suk-ja is selecting the national team setter. The team will compete in the Asian Volleyball Confederation (AVC) Nations Cup, East Asian Championships, Asian Championships, and the Asian Games in an effort to revitalize Korean women's volleyball after failing to qualify for the Volleyball Nations League (VNL).

Cha Sang-hyun, former coach of GS Caltex, has been appointed as the new head coach of the South Korea women's volleyball team, marking the first domestic appointment in eight years. The Korean Volleyball Association (KVA) selected Cha after a public application process. Lee Suk-ja, a KBS N Sports commentator, will serve as the assistant coach. Cha's contract, approved by the Korean Sport & Olympic Committee, is for three years, with a performance review after the Asian Games in September 2024. This comes after a disappointing performance in the Volleyball Nations League under previous coach Fernando Morales. The team will aim to revitalize its performance starting with the Asian Volleyball Confederation (AVC) Nations Cup, East Asian Championships, Asian Championships, and the Asian Games.

Four candidates, including two foreign coaches, have applied for the head coach position of the South Korean women's volleyball national team. The selection follows the departure of Fernando Morales after the team's relegation from the International Volleyball Federation's (FIVB) Volleyball Nations League (VNL). The new coach will lead the team in upcoming international competitions, including the 2025 Asian Games in Aichi and Nagoya, Japan. The Korean Sport & Olympic Committee approval is required, and the contract is likely to be a '1+2 year' agreement based on performance in the Asian Games. The Korean Volleyball Association will finalize the appointment in January after a thorough evaluation process.

The Korean Volleyball Association has announced an open recruitment process to select a new head coach for the women's national volleyball team, following the failure to extend the contract of former coach, Fernando Morales, due to relegation from the 2024 International Volleyball Federation (157) Volleyball Nations League. The new coach will lead the team in major international competitions, including the 2026 Asian Games. The application requires a minimum of five years of coaching experience and a level 2 sports coaching certificate or, for those with coaching experience between two and five years, at least two years of national team player experience and the level 2 certificate. The KVA is considering a '1+2 year' contract based on the performance at the 2026 Asian Games. The selection process involves document screening, performance evaluation, and board review, with the new coach to be finalized in January 2026.
