Sendai, Japan, September 1, 2015 - Korea defeated the Dominican Republic in a four-setter in the second round of the FIVB Volleyball Women's World Cup at the Sendai Gym on Tuesday.

Korea coach Lee Jungchul: "We have played eight matches in Matsumoto and Sendai. We have had some injuries, but we will get rest tomorrow and be ready for the next matches. We have a tall player, Yang Hyo-Jin, who suffered an injury today. We always encounter injuries but fortunately, her injury is not serious."

Korea captain Kim Yeon-Koung: "Finally we found a way to stop losing. We thought we could win last night but we didn't. We have to keep on going now."

Korea player Na Hyun-Jung: "I'm so happy we won and played good volleyball. We will get confidence from this win."

Dominican Republic captain Prisilla Rivera Brens: "This was a tough match. We were hoping for a victory. It was disappointing to lose. We could not follow our coach's instructions. We lost the sideout easily. We have to follow instructions."
