[헤럴드경제=민성기 기자] A Greek club that recruited twin sisters Lee Jae-young and Da-young (25), who were virtually expelled from the domestic volleyball scene due to the controversy over school violence, is attracting attention by launching an anti-violence campaign.
According to the Greek PAOK Thessaloniki club social networking service (SNS) on the 27th, the club posted phrases such as ‘NO TO VIOLENCE’ and ‘WE SAY NO!’ Participated in anti-violence campaigns.
The club wrote, “International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women. PAOK players say out loud, ‘No!'” and “You are not alone.”

‘International Day for the Elimination of Violence Against Women’ began in 1981 to commemorate the day three sisters were murdered in the Dominican Republic while protesting the dictatorship.
Jaeyoung Lee and Dayoung did not participate in the campaign. Jae-young Lee returned to Korea on the 12th, after about a month in the Greek league due to a knee injury. Dayoung Lee is playing as the starting setter.
Previously, Jae-young Lee and Da-young Lee were accused of school violence in February and were asked to leave the volleyball community. The two players were disqualified from the national volleyball team and were suspended from participating in indefinitely by their team, Heungkuk Life Insurance.
